Microids and Blazing Griffin studios (developers of the Hercule Poirot series of games) have announced a new adventure based on the legendary Arsene Lupin. Arsene Lupin – A former thief. The game is due to launch on Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo Switch and PC later this year. Check out the new reveal trailer below…
Arsene Lupin Created by French author Maurice Leblanc in the early 1900s, he was a gentleman thief who had many adventures doing a little good in the world – some might say a bit of an anti-hero.
in Arsène Lupin – Once a Thief Players will follow the famous gentleman thief as he journeys through a world of adventures during fireside chats with author (and creator) Maurice Leblanc, and as Lupin recounts his adventures, players will experience the thrill of his past exploits.
In this adventure puzzler, players will explore Lupin's childhood, love lives and crimes as both Lupin and his pursuer (and tale's antagonist), Detective Ganimard, each providing their own unique perspective on stories such as “The Arrest of Arsène Lupin” and “The Late Arrival of Harlock Shaumes.”
Arsène Lupin – Former thief Features:
- Different environments to explore, different disguises to use and a multitude of puzzles to solve.
- The vibrant art style is reminiscent of picture books of the time.
- These colorful characters seem to have jumped out of the world of Lupin.
- Lupin and Maurice Leblanc each tell the story from a different perspective.
- As Ganimar, you'll search for evidence, interrogate suspects, create a timeline and connect the dots to catch Lupin.
Arsène Lupin – Former thief The game will be available digitally in 2024 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Series X/S and PC, and in both physical and digital editions for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Pre-orders are available now.
