Murdered: Soul Suspect, a mysterious new game from Square Enix, surfaced today. Rather, a typically vague teaser website surfaced and then the internet took care of the rest.
The site shows only a cryptic logo, likely the same which has been showing up in scraps on Murdered's Twitter account. But a hidden "evidence" page yields the above image of a man sprawled out on the street with some broken detritus scattered about him.
The site's title asks, "What is the hardest case to solve?" and some image metadata dug up by NeoGAF users (via Polygon) gives a little bit more background:
"Detectives aren’t supposed to get bloody knuckles, but I’ve done a lot of things I wasn’t supposed to do. I lived through it all, the beat-downs, the back-stabbing, disrespect most people wouldn’t see in ten lifetimes and I never lost a fight… until now"
Square Enix has confirmed the project is one of its own, and it is headed for current-generation consoles and PC. Sadly, this diminishes our theory that Murdered is an HD remake of Ghost Trick.
