Frogwares is currently beavering away on Sherlock Holmes Chapter One – the latest entry in its well-regarded deduction-focussed adventure series – and as it works toward a PlayStation, Xbox, and PC launch later this year, the developer has shed a little more light on what’s in store.
Sherlock Holmes Chapter One, as we learned when it was announced last year, serves as a prequel to Frogwares’ earlier Sherlock Holmes games, rewinding the clock to Holme’s days as a fresh-faced, 21-year-old in order to chart the events that would lead him to a life of sleuthing.
Chapter One marks a deliberate shift away from the fog-shrouded London streets of previous games, with its third-person, open-world investigatory action taking place on a sunny, Mediterranean-inspired island – riddled with class divides and corruption – as Sherlock, with the help of best friend Jonathan, investigates the death of his mother.
