what's the genre of this game again? is this really an investigation game? mostly looking clues and puzzle solving with little combat? the premise indeed remind me of ghost trick, but it's kinda hard to believe a big publishers are releasing adventure game like this.

I hope it's not the trailer misleading us by not showing any combat in the trailer at all.

Stealth-action adventure game. There are apparently malicious spirits you have to avoid/sneak up on and destroy between scouring scenes for clues.

hmm, I love stealth action game, also love adventure game, this game should be in my alley, but honestly that trailer is doing nothing to me. felt like the game that I might bought when there's huge sale for it.

This game is a classic B game, the kind that everyone in the industry seems convinced is dead. I just hope they kept the budget low enough for it not to bomb too hard when it doesn't sell millions of copies.

What is with the fedora and chain wallet?

Eh, you can probably get away with wearing a fedora if you're a detective.

 

[K' Dash]

what's the gameplay like?

If it was set in the 1920s, yeah.

Heads up UK GAF, the PS4 and Xbone versions are available to pre-order over the Square Enix store for £29.99. Could be very good value, depending on how the game turns out.

PS4 - https://store.eu.square-enix.com/emea_uk/games/ps4/Murdered-Soul-Suspect-EN.php
Xbox One - https://store.eu.square-enix.com/emea_uk/games/xone/Murdered-Soul-Suspect-EN.php

Bah, seems it was an error.

£55 now...

Waiting for reviews on this one

She's wearing socks on her arms. Not sure what the point of that is.

Looks like he was from the 20s when he died. Probably not though.

Dude I would wear socks on my arms. Why not?

 

[OverBlood 3]

It's like a Hollywood version of the Blackwell adventure game series.

 

[Dark Octave]

lol I just pictured a guy wearing socks on his arms. Well it'll match the scarf, skinny jeans and leather shirt at least.

 

[MWS Natural]

Graphics look meh but interested in the gameplay.

For what its worth, PS4 and XB1 are both 1080p/30fps.

Why doesn't the US get a Limited Edition? Looks like we only get some dumb digital strategy map.

 

[Hollow]

I thought this game was last gen and PC only.

Might pick it up now that I know there's a PS4 version.

Those wanting to get it on PC/Steam, should consider subscribing to GreenManGaming and having them send you offers and updates. You never know when they'll be offering you a 30% discount code for upcoming games.

 

[grim-tales]

I can't but help that Sqaure-Enix is sending this game to die since this is the first time I have heard of it and the game is due to be release at the same time as E3.



That's what the game is, in fact you play as a detective investigating his murder.

Honestly I can't help but compare it to Ghost Trick.

That's what I thought too, a noirish dark version of Ghost Trick sounds awesome.

 

[Zoned]

Looks unique and interesting. But since SE is the publisher will wait for 75% off in Steam sale

With it being a last gen game, it'd be more surprising if it wasn't 1080/30 across both PS4 and X1.
