Publisher Focus Home Interactive has brought us the launch trailer for Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments, in preparation for the mystery solving game’s release next week.

The game will offer gamers the chance to take a trip through Victorian London with the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Watson, two of Arthur Conan Doyle’s most popular characters.

The video showcases the theme and content of the upcoming crime solving video game, as well as highlighting some of the gameplay mechanics and teasing gamers about the cases they will work on solving.

The upcoming game offers an experience unlike any other in the gaming landscape, challenging players to collect clues and analyze crime scene details in order to piece together the events of various crimes.

Exploring the crime scenes and gathering clues will lead to various possible scenarios, and through the power of induction, you will have to determine who the culprit is in various murder scenarios.

Of course, failing to grasp the finer details of the investigation will lead to the wrong suspect, and on top of that, your moral compass will also come into question, as some of the clues will uncover the shady circumstances that led to the misdeeds.

Developer Frogwares is getting ready to launch Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments on September 30, worldwide, headed to the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 platforms.
