Two years after Agatha Christie Hercule Poirot The First Cases, Microids and the Blazing Griffin studio announce a sequel, coming this summer on PC and consoles. The announcement has just been made by the French publisher, which completes this reveal with the first images of the game. No surprise, they are a continuation of the first episode released in 2021, with a story that will take up the style and above all the tone of Agatha Christie. In addition to Hercule Poirot, this sequel will also allow us to see Arthur Hastings at work and investigate a story of theft in the middle of London. As usual, we will have to observe, listen and above all collect numerous testimonies to advance the investigation. The developers point out that the gameplay has been refined with a new puzzle system that makes it possible to spot inconsistencies on the spot. For the rest, we will find the famous mental maps which make it possible to call on the famous little gray cells of Poirot in order to build stimulating mental maps and then draw the correct links which will make it possible to solve the case.
Visually, Hercule Poirot: The London Case promises to be more detailed, enjoy weather effects and a more immersive sound design. And to go all the way, know that the game will be fully dubbed in French, English, and German. The release of Agatha Christie – Hercule Poirot: The London Case is expected for the summer of 2023 on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
