I must admit to being a huge fan of the Sherlock Holmes franchise. Be it the (highly-excellent) books, the (equally excellent) Jeremy Brett TV series, the more recent film adaptations, or the recent game franchise created by Frogwares. Following the completion of their last game, however, (Sherlock Holmes: The Devil’s Daughter), the future of the franchise seemed more than a little unclear as this was the last release under the (then-current) licensing deal.
Following the release of a brand new trailer, however, we have some excellent news. Not only is a brand new game from the franchise in development, but it appears that Frogwares, again, is going to be at the helm!
As we understand it, the game will take place in Sherlock Holmes’ childhood where he investigates the untimely death of his own mother. Something that, I should note, is not strictly canonical, but certainly within acceptable realms (I don’t recall his mother being mentioned much in the books – let alone the fact that she died in mysterious circumstances).
Some of the games confirmed features include:
In confirming the game, Frogwares has said that Sherlock Homes: Chapter One will release for the PC, Xbox One, PS4, and also next-gen consoles. As for exactly when, well nothing beyond 2021 has been confirmed as of yet, but judging by the trailer, I’m definitely going to be giving this title more than a little investigation!
