Controls and callouts

The bindings the game page actually names, where fan sheets disagree, and the words to use in voice chat.

The Roblox description names two bindings and nothing else: sprint is Shift on keyboard and L3 on a controller, and the flashlight is F on keyboard, X on Xbox, and Square on PlayStation. Mobile, PC, and console are all supported.

When the sheets disagree

A September 2026 controls page maps PC interact to E, flashlight to F, and console interact to X or Square, with flashlight on Y or Triangle. An older encyclopedia maps interact to left click, RT, or R2, and the light to F, X, or Square, which matches the game page.

Use the button prompt on the object you are looking at. If you rebind interact in Roblox settings, tell the squad. Most spoken callouts assume the default PC key is E.

Callouts that survive a mixed lobby

Say the object, not the key, when PC and console share a night:

  • "On cams" means someone is at the monitor or tablet.
  • "Fuse trip" means the fuse box needs a reset. Lights going out can be power, not a breach.
  • "Gen low" means fetch fuel. On Night 1 that is a gas can. On Night 2 that is a storage-room battery.
  • "Hammer" plus a door or window name means that plank is the current job.
  • "Flash mid-right" on Night 2 means the floodlight button, which spends a generator bar.

Hold the interact control on generators, fuse boxes, and ladders. A tap can cancel the pour. Say "fueling" so the hammer player does not leave the door to come help.

Other documented inputs

Hotbar slots are number keys on PC. Drop is often Backspace, B, or Circle depending on the sheet. Night 3 shotgun aim is the secondary fire button and the shot is primary fire. Jump is Space, A, or Cross. Do not treat those rows as more official than the flashlight line on the game page.

A published stamina model from late August 2026 says sprint drains about one eighth of the bar per second, a jump takes about one tenth, a jump while sprinting takes about one fifth, and the bar refills about one sixteenth per second while you are not sprinting or jumping. Iron Lungs adds 25 percent stamina. If a later patch changed the bar, the in-game meter wins.

Practice in daylight: ladder, cameras, three barricades, one fuel pour, one fuse check. Then load Night 1.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What are you trying to survive in Residence Massacre?

Prepare the map before midnight, then stay alive from 12 AM to 6 AM. Night 1 is the house and The Mutant. Night 2 is the factory. Night 3 is Lakeview Camp. You are not required to kill the anomaly to win a night.

Are there working Residence Massacre codes?

No active promo code was documented, and the game was not described as having a standing code box. Earn Coins from nights, memories, Endless, badges, and daily quests. Ignore lists that promise free Coins through surveys.

Who is Larry?

Larry is the community name for The Mutant, the quadruped anomaly on Night 1 and at the factory floodlights on Night 2. On Night 1, room lights scare him only while he is still at a window.

What happened to TIX?

In August 2026 the wallet label changed from TIX to Coins after Roblox moderation. Published notes say earn rates and shop prices stayed equivalent and only the name and icons changed.

Is Night 4 playable?

No. Night 4 is not released. The Night 3 ending with the soldiers is a story tease, not a fourth map. PvP was removed in January 2026 and has not been brought back on the pages covered here.

Does VIP still multiply Coins?

No. After the August 21, 2026 Night 1 Rework, VIP is a free quest refresh, a VIP label, and the Retro outfit. Double Coins still doubles night, memory, and Endless night payouts. It does not double quest rewards.
