Family Friendly Gaming News
Paris, 16 December in the year of our
Lord 2024 - Microids and Microids Studio Lyon are
pleased to announce the video game Agatha Christie - Death on
the Nile. This adventure and investigation game, based on one of
Agatha Christie's most iconic masterpieces, will be available in
2025 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch.
In 2023, Microids Studio Lyon's first project, Agatha Christie -
Murder on the Orient Express, made its mark with its modern
reinterpretation of the literary classic. The adaptation
surprised gamers by enriching the original story while remaining
true to its essence.
With Agatha Christie - Death on the Nile, Microids Studio Lyon
is exploring a new direction by adding all-new plots, advanced
gameplay mechanics and a unique setting: Egypt in the 1970s.
‘Player feedback on Murder on the Orient Express, where Hercule
Poirot already shared the investigation with a second detective,
Joanna Locke, was precious in guiding the development of Death
on the Nile. We have raised the level of difficulty with more
complex puzzles and offered more freedom in the progression of
the investigation. In addition, the adventure weaves the stories
of Hercule Poirot and Jane Royce, the new detective, even more
closely together,’ says David Chomard, CEO of Microids Studio
Lyon.
About Agatha Christie – Death on the Nile:
In Death on the Nile, a peaceful cruise on the Nile is disrupted
by a terrible crime. Thankfully, Hercule Poirot is onboard.
Meanwhile, another private detective Jane Royce is tracking a
murderer, leading her from London to Majorca, New York, and
finally to Egypt. The two investigations collide at Abu Simbel.
The dynamic duo will solve a complex case full of twists and
turns. But the story doesn’t end with the book and still holds
many mysteries and twists, even for Agatha Christie fans.
