Despite mixed reviews from critics, a detective adventure released last year The sinking city from Ukrainian studio Frogwares proved successful in commercial terms, which allows developers to be optimistic about the future and work on the next project.
About this in an interview with a journalist portal Wccftech said Frogwares public relations manager Sergey Hovhannisyan.
Without giving exact numbers, a representative of Frogwares noted that sales of The Sinking City were better than the results of several previous studio games dedicated to Sherlock Holmes. In addition, an exclusive agreement with Epic games.
“I’m not sure I can disclose the details of the commercial agreement with Epic Games. But, as we said earlier, we would not agree to the terms if they were not critical for our studio. This deal with Epic Games allowed us to prepare for the future and just continue to do what we love to do – niche detective games. Will we see the sales growth of The Sinking City with the release of Steam? It depends only on the players, “the representative of Frogwares studio emphasized.
As for the next project of the team, its representative did not disclose details, hinting only that the developers are not going to deviate from their usual genre formula.
“I can confirm that we are working on something. However, we are not ready to disclose details yet.
What I can tell you for sure is that the fans know us best from our detective games, and this new game will fit the Frogwares profile – it will become a detective story-based adventure.
But whether it will be a new one about Sherlock, The Sinking City 2 or a project on a new IP – this, unfortunately, I can’t say yet. “
The Sinking City is available on all current platforms. Read our review here.
