CDV has announced that it will be publishing "Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened," the adventure game by Frogwares, in North America this September.
"In development by Frogwares, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened combines the eerie mysticism of H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos with the mystery-solving powers of the great fictional detective - Sherlock Holmes. The Awakened is the first fully 3D Sherlock Holmes game, and will feature rich graphics and detailed environments. Fans of the mystery genre will feel right at home with the point-and-click interface as they explore multiple distinctly chilling environments while solving mysteries and completing challenging and creative puzzles."
“Here we are at our AAA Game of the Year Awards and there are loads of games to celebrate so let's dive in and get to the winners.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened merges the world of H.P. Lovecraft with the usually rational Sherlock Holmes. Have Holmes and Watson met their match?
XBA says: Much more than a simple remake, it's a new take on the original. A case worth investigating.
