Frogwares, the studio known for its Sherlock Holmes video game series, has released The Sinking City Remastered for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC. The game will be completely remastered on Unreal Engine 5 and will be free for owners of the regular version.
The original The Sinking City was released in June 2019 on Unreal Engine 4. The developers promise that the remaster will improve the visuals of the game, as well as add some features that players have requested.
The Sinking City Remastered will feature enhanced locations with additional levels of detail and objects, as well as 4K textures and improved reflections. The game will feature a photo mode and support for DLSS, FSR, and TSR technologies.
The release date for The Sinking City Remastered is currently unknown.
After the release of the original The Sinking City, Frogwares accused French publisher Nacon of non-payment of royalties and began a legal battle for the rights to the franchise. While the lawsuit was ongoing, Nacon sold the game on Steam, while the Ukrainian studio implemented the project through its own website.
Last year, Frogwares won a court case and received the rights to The Sinking City.
The studio announced The Sinking City 2 and is currently raising money for development on Kickstarter. With 4 days left to go, the project has raised over $464,000, exceeding its goal by 4 times.
The developers will spend additional funds on new investigations and monster variations, as well as adding a new type of enemy to the game.
