The game is now available to pre-order for the PS5, while the PS4 version will be released on a later date. The team at Frogwares will be releasing more details soon for the old gen version release date.
All preorders will receive the Victorian Starter Pack which includes a special quest titled “The Lead Zeppelin”, a unique Consulting Detective and The Victorian Vampire in-game outfits, 500 Manghirs (the currency of Cordona Island) which players use for various cosmetic customization as well as a free digital copy of Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments on the same platform they ordered Chapter One on.
A Deluxe Edition has also been revealed. It includes the base game + season pass that includes new quests: Saints & Sinners (Available day 1), a questline linked to Mycroft Holmes, a questline which pitches Sherlock against a mysterious shadow figure only known as M and more to be announced later.
The price for the base game is $44.99 while the Deluxe Edition is priced at $59.99. Frogwares wanted to move away from the current AA and new gen pricing norms to make the game affordable and accessible for more players.
All season pass content is also available to purchase separately.
Sherlock Holmes Chapter One is set to release on November 16, 2021.
