Sherlock Holmes Chapter One | Combat Deep Dive Trailer

Hello everyone,

Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One’s release date is getting closer and closer - November 16th to be exact. To give you a further glimpse of how the game plays, we’ve prepared another trailer for you to check out. This time we wanted to give you a deeper dive into the game’s combat.

Although smart, Sherlock is certainly not a gun-toting superhero maniac. He must use his wits and brains in battle the same way as he does when solving a crime. If the time to fight comes, look closely and find your opponent’s weak spots, take advantage of the environment itself, or use your snuff box to daze them if they come too close to stun them to gain an advantage. Remember though, Sherlock’s strongest weapon is his mind. Work clever, not hard.

Killing is a last resort. If you do decide to gun down your foes, expect to hear about it from your companion Jon. It might impact how he perceives you. Having a disappointed Jon around you can be bad for your mental health.

However, if combat is not your thing, you can always choose to skip this part of the game by turning it off in the menu.

And finally, remember that you can pre-order Sherlock Holmes Chapter One right now, and receive additional content as well as the full Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments game.

Take care and until next time detectives,

Yours Frogwares Team
