MM2 of The Locust Guides

Every guide on this wiki starts from a real player failure: dying on the cubes, missing the dropped gun, or wasting a Locust round by sprinting in a straight line. Use this hub to pick the tutorial that matches the role you just rolled.

Updated:

MM2 of The Locust looks like a meme morph until the hallway lights cut and the Locust is already in the door. The core tutorials below are written for that moment. They share vocabulary with classic Murder Mystery 2 so veterans can skip the basics, but they call out the nest-specific tricks that vanilla MM2 never taught you.

Core tutorials

After the tutorials, jump into the matching role pages. Innocent is the default and the hardest to carry. Sheriff is a one-bullet job. Hero is whoever picks up the dropped gun. Locust is the star of the shorts and the fastest way to throw a round if you panic. Map knowledge lives in the map guide; keybinds live in controls.

Pain points these guides solve

Comment sections on Locust shorts all ask the same five things: what is the game called, how do you become the monster, how do you use voice, how do you stop getting grabbed off the cubes, and which script shows roles. This hub answers the first four with play, not cheats. Scripts have their own section because mixing ESP advice into a beginner guide just gets people banned.

  1. Name confusion: the Roblox title is MM2 of The Locust, not House of The Locust and not Nikilis MM2.
  2. Role confusion: Locust is the murderer slot, not a shop morph you buy with Robux.
  3. Gun confusion: only the Sheriff spawns armed; everyone else waits for a drop.
  4. Map confusion: rooftop cubes and indoor brick halls are different chases.
  5. Code confusion: there is no public Trello; Discord is the leak channel.

Recommended reading order

Play one Innocent round before you read Locust theory. You need to feel the grab range from the victim side or you will over-commit as the monster. Then run the rooftop in Free-cam third person using the PC control list until slide-jump is muscle memory. Only then open the tier list or the script list. Gear rankings do not help if you cannot turn a corner.

The store icon is the rooftop grab. Learn that geometry first.

If a friend sent you a House of The Locust walkthrough, keep it in a second tab. That place is a puzzle-escape nest with Key, Keycard, and Wirecutters. This place is a round-based MM2 clone wearing the same monster. Crossing the two tutorials is how people stand still waiting for a keycard that will never spawn while the Locust walks up behind them.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the searches this nest actually gets.

Which guide should I read first?

How to Play, then How to Survive. Open How to Play Locust only after you have died as Innocent at least once.

Do these guides work on mobile?

Yes. Movement advice is the same. Button placement is on the Mobile Controls page.

Is there a Trello?

No public Trello is attached to this pre-alpha. Discord is the leak board.
