The highly acclaimed Return of the Obra Dinn from developer Lucas Pope is finally headed to consoles. If you’re unfamiliar with the title, it’s a puzzle game that takes place in the 19th Century aboard a ghost ship where all the crew have mysteriously disappeared. Your role as an insurance adjuster from London is to discover how and when each of the crew members died. And if you couldn’t tell by the below image, the game is played through first person but in a monochrome style.
It will release on the Xbox One, PS4, and Switch on October 18th! Pope announced the release date via Twitter:
