A Short Game about Killing
Nippon Ichi Software (NIS) has finally unveiled the strange title that it has been teasing for the past week, pulling back the curtain onTantei Bokumetsu, (orDetective Elimination), which will launch in Japan on PS4 and Nintendo Switch May 27.
As revealed in the newest issue of Weekly Famitsu,Tantei Bokumetsusees 14 top detectives – each an expert in his or her particular field – gathered together on a remote island and tasked with ascertaining the identity of the killer that lurks among them. Players will explore the island for clues and interrogate the suspects while hopefully keeping their own name off of the kill list. Soundspretty freakin’ familiar…
While NIS has launched a newwebsiteandTwitterforTantei Bokumetsu, it is yet to release a full trailer or any gameplay footage. There is no word as to whether this latest tale of friendship and fatality will receive an English localization, but given NIS dedication to its western fanbase, it remains a possibility.
