- Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened review - 12 April 2023
It's impossible to review Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened without addressing its circumstances.

- Sherlock Holmes The Awakened is now available to play! - 11 April 2023
Detectives, we have arrived! After much anticipation, Sherlock Holmes The Awakened has been released! Enjoy the Lovecraftian madness. We made this game during one heck of a time. We made it while our country is at war. We faced challenges such as constant power outages, irregular work schedules, air raids, evacuations, losing our homes, saying goodbyes to our loved ones (through immigration, or worse), and losing team members so that they could defend our country. We woked from our homes, our office, and from underground bunkers or train stations. It was an enduring and unending nightmare. But with all this chaos around, working on The Awakened helped us maintain a little sense of normalcy. We truly gave it all - sweat, emotions, and spirit to the development of this game. We express our sincere gratitude to our families and friends for their unwavering support. It’s in times like these…

- A few words on the Sherlock Holmes The Awakened Release Date - 16 February 2023
Hello everyone, While the development of the game since April 2022 had always been challenging due to the war, the last 5 months starting in October 2022 have been extremely difficult for our team. As you may know, initially we were aiming to release our game in a February / early March release window. Unfortunately, the relentless strikes on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine have forced us to work around continual blackouts and redo the entire production pipeline. Due to the effects of the ongoing war in Ukraine, we need a few more weeks to finish Sherlock Holmes The Awakened. We are forced to move the release date for the game to late March / April 2023. We've created a video showing how we are getting ready for the release, our current situation in Kyiv, as well as new gameplay footage captured on PC, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch. We’ve been trying really hard to make our plan…

- The backstory of Sherlock and Watson in Sherlock Holmes The Awakened - 12 December 2022
Whenever we think of Sherlock or Watson, we never think of them as separate individuals so much, do we? They are one of the most iconic duos of pop culture. So if you are a big fan of the two, you’re probably wondering how they fit within the world we created. Well, let us explain. Sherlock Holmes The Awakened is set in London in the latter months of 1882. It follows on from the events that took place in Sherlock Holmes Chapter One. For the last year, Sherlock and John have been roommates at the not-yet-iconic 221B Baker Street apartment in London. They are just roommates for now. Each has his own life and problems but they live together because they have no other choice. Sherlock is doing some odd and small detective cases around the neighbourhood, while John is trying to restart his medical career after coming back from the war in Afghanistan. Sherlock is still his arrogant self, miss…
