Plot Twist’s The Last Case of Benedict Fox, a Metroidvania platformer with Lovecraftian elements, received a new trailer at the Future Games Showcase. It sees the detective and his supernatural companion exploring a mansion, traversing into Limbo to progress forward in the real world and vice versa.

Along with investigating different clues and tarot cards, players can also visit Houdini to obtain items. He’ll also inscribe various skills, resulting in a rather painful tattooing process. Some skills include Slam, which allows for breaking through weak floors. You can also use lock-picks to bypass some doors. Of course, Fox and his companion aren’t the only ones who can explore the Limbo. Various threats await, so you’ll have to be cautious.

The Last Case of Benedict Fox is out in Spring 2023 for Xbox Series X/S and PC, along with launching day one on Game Pass. For more gameplay, head here. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
