Square Enix ha pubblicato il video walkthrough completo per Murdered: Soul Suspect, riferito alla demo presentata nel corso dell'E3 2013.
Si tratta di 25 minuti circa di gioco, che illustrano tutta la sezione di gameplay che era presente nel corso della fiera a Los Angeles, con la prima parte del nuovo titolo in sviluppo presso Airtight Games. Si tratta, dunque, di un gioco investigativo che unisce atmosfere gialle, noir e un po' horror in un ibrido particolare. Vi si narra la triste storia del detective Ronan O'Connor, assassinato brutalmente a colpi di pistola per le strade di Salem, nel Massachusetts.
Ronan, da quel momento, diventa una sorta di spirito in grado di vagare per la cittadina, interagire con altri spiriti e cercare di risolvere il suo caso, nonché salvare il mondo dalle presenze demoniache.

00:02Hi everyone, this is Eric Studer, Senior Design Producer at Airtight Games
00:06and it's my pleasure to present Murdered Soul Suspect
00:09a supernatural detective thriller that's a brand new blend on the action adventure genre
00:14In this collaboration with Airtight Games and Square Enix
00:17we ask the player to solve the hardest case of all, their own murder
00:28Detectives aren't supposed to get bloody knuckles
00:30but I've done a lot of things I wasn't supposed to do
00:35I lived through it all
00:36the beatdowns, the backstabbing
00:39disrespect most people wouldn't see in ten lifetimes
00:42and I never lost a fight
00:46until now
01:06Hey man, what are you doing?
01:14Hey!
01:15Move away from the body now!
01:18What the fuck is this?
01:22Hey, did you hear me?
01:37Hey, no, no, no, no!
01:58Oh shit!
02:01Oh shit!
02:03That's a...
02:03No, no, I...
02:05No, no, I...
02:06What?
02:08What?
02:09What?
02:10What?
02:10What?
02:10What?
02:23What?
02:25Get back here!
02:28I said
02:29Get back
02:44What you just saw was the untimely demise
02:47Of our protagonist Ronan O'Connor
02:49Ronan grew up on the streets
02:50And because of that he has a particular
02:52Perspective on the world
02:54He brings his experiences with him
02:56As he does his work as a detective
02:59With the Salem Police Department
03:01Great idea Baxter
03:03Tamper with the evidence
03:11Back up
03:12Who needs backup
03:15You shouldn't have tried to be one of us
03:21Man
03:22You were one dumb son of a bitch
03:29Sir
03:33Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Baxter
03:34Hey, hey
03:35Just get back
03:37Taking them statements
03:39Come on
03:41Yeah
03:42I'm the stupid one
03:44This is not your scene, Lieutenant
03:47Just
03:48Pay your specs
03:49And move on, please
03:51Yeah
03:52Maybe it's not my scene
03:54But it is my case
03:57Tomorrow it'll be my case
04:00And the next day
04:02Until we catch him
04:05You do well to remember that, Sergeant
04:09Look, I'm just following Captain's orders here
04:12You know the procedure
04:13When a family member is
04:16Yeah, well
04:19Take all the time you need, LT
04:27Don't worry, brother
04:29Remember
04:31Ghosts never die
04:38Do me a favor, Codman
04:44Tell Julia I miss her
04:47She knows, Rex
04:50She knows
04:57I need to get my eyes on Stuart's notebook
05:01See what they found out
05:02Sir, did you see the man in the hood?
05:05Yes
05:06I don't know if she saw anything
05:08He killed that man in the street
05:12You don't need to be so secretive, boys
05:15We're on the same team
05:17I've been investigating this case for a long time
05:22I gotta see if they found any leads
05:24That I don't already know about
06:07Murder takes place in Salem, Massachusetts
06:11Salem has a very rich supernatural history
06:14Which we draw on extensively for our game
06:16It also has that New England, small town aesthetic
06:20That makes such a perfect setting
06:22For the events that occur to Ronan
06:24Over the course of the game
06:27The other stuff that you're going to see
06:28Are these sort of ethereal, glow-bluing vestiges
06:32These objects are part of the dusk
06:35The same limbo realm that Ronan now finds himself in
06:38When someone is murdered or suffers
06:41The energy that they give off
06:43Leaves an imprint in the dusk
06:44Which is represented in these living world objects
06:47Which you see around him
06:50Now, Ronan is capable of lots of things
06:53Like passing through most living world objects
06:56But dusk objects actually present blockers to Ronan
07:00So he cannot move beyond them easily
07:03In life, Ronan was an excellent detective
07:05And the first thing that you're going to see here
07:07Is his incredible observational abilities
07:10As I examine Ronan's corpse
07:12I know he was shot
07:13After he fell from a fourth story window
07:24Bingo
07:27I knew it
07:28However, I'm limited as a ghost
07:31A living world detective can actually interact with the evidence he has
07:35He can pick it up and turn it around in his fingertips
07:39The cigarette over here
07:41I can't pick that up
07:43Ronan has no ability to examine it
07:45In that sense, he's limited
07:46But as a ghost, he has so much more power
07:50Because unlike a living detective
07:53Ronan can possess human beings
07:56And while you can't directly control a human being while possessing them
07:59You can do things like look through their eyes
08:04I need to find information that could be relevant to my case
08:07So I look up and down his notepad
08:09And I see that he's written down that the victim was shot with his own gun
08:24But Ronan could do more than just look through the eyes of the people he's possessing
08:28Over here, I see two police officers
08:31Now, I can't hear what they're saying
08:33But if I possess Officer Robinson
08:36And listen through his ears
08:39What a night, huh, Robinson?
08:41Yeah
08:43Crazy
08:46Ronan, unbelievable
08:49I don't get it, what was he even doing here?
08:51You're asking for it
08:53A witness called in saying he saw the killer in their building
08:57Ronan responds, disregards orders for backup
09:01Next thing you know, the killer tried to see if he could make him sprout angel wings
09:05And then ba-ba-ba-ba-bam
09:07Seven to the chest
09:08Point blank
09:10You really have no idea when to quit, do you, Baxter?
09:13You ever take a look at those tattoos at his
09:15All that gangland prison crap
09:17He was more criminal than cop
09:20You live like a thief, you die like a thief
09:23He was still a badge, dickhead
09:28But Ronan could do still more with his ability to possess human beings
09:33Over here
09:35you can see that there's a witness
09:37who's trying to give a statement to a police officer
09:41if I influence her
09:44and use one of my own
09:45memories
09:47in this case my killer
09:48I can get her to think about that
09:51particular subject
09:53that man in the hood
09:56outside looking up
09:57at the top apartment on the fourth
09:59floor I think
10:01does that mean the killer came
10:03here for a reason
10:06so now I've got information about the witness
10:08she was too distraught to give information
10:11to the police officer
10:12but by reading her mind
10:14I now have information that the cops don't have access to
10:18so I've collected all the critical information
10:20on this crime scene
10:21and so now it's time to make a deduction
10:25in this particular version of the deduction
10:27I need to put the pieces in the right order
10:29so first I need to figure out
10:31what the cops know
10:32well I know a little bit about
10:35what the killer's M.O. was
10:37based on Stewart's notebook
10:38good
10:39and I know that they know a little bit
10:41about what happened here
10:42the events of the murder
10:43because of the conversation
10:47that worked
10:48but now I need to figure out
10:50what do I know
10:51that the cops don't know
10:52well it was the mind reading information
10:55I got from the witness
10:57outside
10:58looking up
10:59at the top apartment
11:00on the fourth floor I think
11:06the killer came here for a reason
11:10but what was it
11:19the apartment up there
11:20must have some clues
11:23except that's my way in
11:24and it's closed
11:27fantastic
11:30here's my chance
11:32I just need to follow
11:33Stewart into the building
11:35so I mentioned before
11:36that Ronan could pass through
11:37most living world objects
11:38and was blocked by vestiges
11:40but there's another thing
11:42that he's blocked by
11:43external walls of building
11:44I mentioned the
11:46sort of foundation
11:47in the supernatural
11:48that the town of Salem has
11:50well in our game
11:51the citizens
11:51christen all of their buildings
11:53what this does
11:55is it creates
11:55a supernatural barrier
11:56that prevents spirits
11:58from entering
11:58and exiting freely
12:00the only way Ronan
12:01can get in and out of buildings
12:03is by finding a breach
12:05in that barrier
12:06now officer Stewart
12:08ahead of me
12:08has opened that door
12:09creating the breach
12:11that I need
12:11to get inside
12:2310-4
12:2410-4
12:42so now I'm moving on
12:43to the second key component
12:44of our product
12:45which is exploration
12:46now as I mentioned
12:48there's no way
12:49to pass through exterior walls
12:51without having a breach
12:52in the supernatural barrier
12:54interior walls of buildings
12:55don't inhibit me
12:57the same way
12:59in fact
13:00almost every interior wall
13:02in the entire game
13:03Ronan can pass through freely
13:05this opens up entirely new ways
13:07to explore the environment
13:12so let's go ahead
13:13and move up to the second floor
13:14and continue the investigation
13:41and continue them
13:45and coming up to be
13:45and running
13:45because
13:45the city
14:13As you can see, Ronan has more power
14:15than even he is aware of.
14:18The other thing that that cinematic showed you is it hints at a side quest that will
14:23play a crucial role over the course of the game.
14:26Side quests are important in Murdered because it gives the player a chance to learn not only
14:30about the characters that inhabit the space and Ronan, but also about the sound of Salem.
14:35This graffiti here, if I reveal it, it will tell me more information about who that young
14:41girl was.
14:42Okay, so now I'm going to go over here and I'm going to malfunction this particular
14:46stone.
14:48Now, if it gets the attention of this young lady, which I believe it has, she's going
14:52to wander over and examine it and see what has happened.
14:55Now, in this particular case, it's a fun little bit of poltergeist, but later on in the game,
15:01that ability to, in a limited capacity, interact with the living world will play a crucial role
15:06in the puzzle solving of the game.
15:20The Dusk is not a safe place.
15:23What you see here is the first of several demon types that the player will encounter over
15:27the course of the game.
15:28of the game.
15:53Now, something I want to draw your attention to here is the fact that we want the combat in Murdered
15:58to be very intentional.
15:59We want the player to understand the combat space, build a strategy, and execute on it.
16:05The demons are incredibly strong, and if you attack them head-on, you will be defeated.
16:09So it's important to get behind them when they're unaware and rip them apart from the inside.
16:18This represents sort of the holistic design that we're taking with Murdered, both in the case of investigation and exploration
16:26and combat.
16:27We want it to be very intentional, very thoughtful.
16:30We want the player to constantly be engaged in the game and always be thinking about their next decisions.
16:36It's that sort of consistency of design that we're going for.
16:40Now, here you see that on the street we use possession to solve crimes, but now we use it in
16:45combat.
16:46We can defeat demons by hiding within living targets.
17:00In addition to possession, the player can also use pass-through to get behind the enemies,
17:05and hopefully get advantage of them when they're not expecting it.
17:35One more ability I want to show here is something that we're calling Teleport right now.
17:38It allows a player to silently sneak up behind enemies, and then attack them when they least expect it.
17:44It's normal.
17:55These three abilities are just the tip of the iceberg.
17:58When the product ships, there's going to be plenty of strategies for the player to use
18:02to build their own path through the combat spaces.
18:06A quick note about enemies.
18:08They used to be human ghosts, who have been slowly corrupted by their dusk over many, many years.
18:13Their last instinct is the belief that devouring other human souls,
18:17they can regain their own humanity.
18:42Damn it.
18:44My mom gave me that gun.
18:53and what the hell happened in here
19:02now on the street i showed you how possession can be used in a special way
19:07to gain advantage where a regular detective wouldn't be able to gain headway into a case
19:12the player can do more than that though here we have things called memory residues and by revealing
19:18them i actually bring a memory back into the investigation space now that it's here i can
19:25investigate it and draw information from it in this case it's obviously the killer here
19:31and he's looking for someone or something
19:47okay so let's continue on with the investigation over here to your left what you're gonna see
19:53is a baseball bat if i investigate this i knew it it's interesting because this is clearly a metal
20:02bat but it was bent and it was done recently because it's part of the crime scene
20:19damn this guy's strong
20:26all right so now i'm going to make my way over and continue investigating the apartment
20:30on the other side of this living room i'll see a broken window if i interact with this
20:39it's clear that this is the window i was killed from
20:41nice all right there we go
20:57i didn't stand a freaking chance
21:04we'll move into the bedroom now and continue the investigation
21:09you'll see that there's another memory residue here and if i reveal this one
21:12i can see that there's a witness
21:17now this witness is obviously watching the killer as he moves through the space
21:22she's frightened and so she's hiding from him hoping he doesn't see her
21:30bingo nice
21:40i can't believe there was a witness
21:46the case has just taken a turn but i don't know where the witness went
21:49so i need to keep investigating if i move over here i'll see a bulletin board
21:54and if i interact with a photo on it i'll get a psychic imprint from it
21:58and this will give me new insight
22:04father do you have anywhere that i can stay just for a little
22:07of course dear the church is always here now
22:09i think we have an old adage you can stay in for as long as you like
22:25so now i have all the critical pieces of information
22:28so let's complete this deduction
22:32now on the street i was asked to put the pieces together
22:35but in this version of the deduction i actually have to put the pieces of
22:39information in chronological order
22:43in this instance the eyewitness was here first
22:46at which point the killer showed up
22:49ronan arrived confronted him
22:51but was overpowered and thrown out of the window
22:54i knew it
23:22turned around you're under arrest
23:26i you're under arrest
23:56...
24:05...
24:06...
24:20Out the window.
24:22Gun me down in the street
24:24and you didn't even check for witnesses
24:28like you're untouchable
24:33that girl is my only lead
24:36I need to find her
24:38by piecing this all together
24:39I now know where the witness fled
24:41I need to chase her through this window
24:43hopefully I can still catch up with her
24:45find her at the church
24:47and maybe she'll lead me to my killer
24:49so I can bring him to justice
24:52what you just saw
24:53was the beginning of a very robust
24:55and a very interesting
24:57supernatural detective thriller
24:58that we think is both incredibly original
25:01and incredibly compelling
25:02thank you so much for watching the demo
25:05and I believe that we're going to have some really
25:07interesting stuff for you in the very near future
25:32and I'll show you
25:32you
25:32you
25:32you
25:32you
25:32Grazie a tutti
