The Holmes Legacy Continues On PS3 And 360
Today Atlus announced it's publishing The Testament of Sherlock Holmes developed by Frogwares for consoles. The studio has been developing Sherlock Holmes games since 2004, and the legendary detective's next case is heading to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
The Testament of Sherlock Holmes is the first game in the series built from the ground up for the HD generation, with an all-new engine that lets players comprehensively explore crime scenes and interact with important persons. Holme's trusty partner, Watson, joins in on the hunt as the duo cross unsavory characters and explore grisly murders. The trailer even shows a freshly dug grave sporting the Sherlock's name. Intrigue!
Frogware's last Holmes game, Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper was a decent game (read our review), and we're curious to see what the developer has in store for us next. The game hits PS3 and 360 this September.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
