Can you believe it's been one year since we’ve launched into early access, detectives?! Since then, you as a community have investigated and solved 1000’s of cases across the city with new ones rolling in everyday. Look at all these wild case boards!
The votes are in! We have also been doing polls during early access in our Discord to see how you all like to operate on the beat.
DID YOU KNOW:
- Detectives would kindly knock at your front door to ask questions.
- Detectives prefer to investigate in the dead of night.
- Detectives favorite beverage to have while cracking a case is coffee
- Detectives prefer homicide cases over all other types
Throughout Early Access, you have helped us shape Shadows Of Doubt into what it is now with your feedback and sharing of all your exciting and fun experiences.Last year we launched the first major free content update, Cheats & Liars. This introduced new case types like infidelity and stolen items, a new building, The Grand Hotel and new ways to interact with citizens.
What better way to celebrate our 1 year anniversary than with ANOTHER major free content update, The Sharpshooter Assassin. Released earlier this month, an all new type of killer, the sniper, has been introduced. Using bullet trajectory analysis and investigations of the Black Market dealers in the new and improved Fathoms district will prove very helpful in catching these snipers.
In addition to the sniper, you’ll now acquire social credit perks as you level that will give you an edge on your cases in a a variety of ways and even grant you access to a new location above the filth of the cities, The Echelons.
General Sam also released another fantastically themed video showcasing some of this new content along with a host of other grevious law breaking in his quest to stop crime. You can also now find some wonderful voice acting of theirs in game!
With more to come before our 1.0 launch this year along with console releases (FINALLY, we know you’ve been wanting it 🙂), we want to thank each and every detective who has been on the case throughout Early Access sharing your findings, exciting moments and giving us the feedback needed to continue to create an amazing detective sim experience for you all. Let’s all cheers up an ice cold Starch Kola or perhaps an Old Wheel Bourbon and celebrate what will be another exciting year for detectives and Shadows Of Doubt!
