Frogwares has put out a handful of Sherlock Holmes games at this point, but those who’ve played it will tell you that thanks in large part to its Cthulhu-inspired horror aesthetic, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened is probably one of the better ones. Soon, it will be getting a full-fledged remake, and to build up more excitement for its release, the developer has released a launch trailer. Check it out below.
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened combines the classic investigation mechanics that you’d expect from one of Frogwares’ games based on the IP with a setting that’s teeming with plenty of eldritch horrors, insanity, and monstrosities. All of that and more is shown off in the trailer, with a particular focus on the investigations and the mind-twisting horrors that Holmes and Watson will be contending with.
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened is due out next week, on April 11, for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
