For the first time PC adventure game specialist, Frogwares Studio is bringing its Sherlock Holmes franchise to consoles, in the form of Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack The Ripper on Xbox 360.

Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper allows you to play as the greatest detective of all in the London of 1888. A series of particularly horrible murders creates a real psychosis throughout the country. Atrociously mutilated prostitutes' bodies are found by the police without them being able to find a serious lead. Sherlock Holmes starts looking for clues in the dark and sinister alleys of Whitechapel in order to follow the macabre trail of the one the press now calls Jack the Ripper. During an adventure, Sherlock Holmes will try to bring out the true identity and the motives of the one who hides behind this scary alias.

Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper will offer players two different views that are accessible at any time: a third person view in the purest style used in point & click adventure games, as well as a first person view. The player will be free to play in one or the other modes or even combine them. Another novelty: the player will also find an original crime scene reconstitution system that will allow him to test his theories during his progress in the investigation to follow the bloody trail of the terrifying serial killer.













Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper will also be released on PC this May.
