Not only the official website has been opened, but the game is already available for pre-order on the Japanese arm of Amazon, providing the box art and the first details.

The game will be released in Japan for PS4 and Nintendo Switch on April 25 and its tagline is “Choose between good or evil.” The player’s choices can determine the path chosen by the protagonist and its outcome.

It’s a fully-voiced adventure title (which in Japanese lingo means a visual novel) where the protagonist treads an alternate-reality London where medical science is very advanced.

Private Detective Arthur Hewitt recognizes the presence of “another self” within himself due to the shock of finding a corpse while investigating a murder case.

Arthur will get caught up into a major case involving London while living with alongside illusion of the self-proclaimed Jack the Ripper.

It certainly appears to be an interesting game (and a story mix of Jack the Ripper and Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde), and the key artwork portrayed on the cover is certainly interesting.

You can check it out below.

If you’re interested in Nippon Ichi Software, they’re also currently working on the JRPG Destiny Connect.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
