According to the studio, Sherlock Holmes Chapter 1 is not going to get canceled for last-gen and will be released. However, the developers need time to even out all the rough edges in order to deliver a smooth experience.

The developers have not provided any release date or timeline only vaguely mentioning “a few weeks at most.” With that said, it is a good thing that Frogwares and the team are taking their time rather than rushing the game. If this delay makes for an unspoiled gameplay experience for PS4 and Xbox One players, then it might not be the worst thing.

Moreover, today PlayStation posted the Sherlock Holmes Chapter One release date announcement trailer on YouTube for PS5. The story takes place on the fictional island of Cordona, the childhood home of Sherlock and his friend Jon. The story revolves around the duo finding out clues and leads to resolve the puzzling death of Sherlock’s mother. The game will feature a younger version of Sherlock rather than the more seasoned one.
