Season 22 of Identity V started on July 6th and ended on September 22nd, 2022. While this Season was ongoing, players could continue down the Logic Path by rolling dice, and open Essences which contain Costumes, Accessories, Images (Graffiti and Portraits), and Character actions (such as Emotes and Standby Motions) for Survivors and Hunters.
At the end of the Season, the Essences are combined into a Memory Sphere, which can be redeemed using Clues or Inspirations. However, S-Tier costumes will no longer be available.
This is the seventh Season to introduce the new Logic Path System, consisting of a portrait, portrait frame and accessory for the first 3 rewards instead of C-Tier skins. The first was Season 16.
