Detectives all around, prepare for a new, yet unexpected wave of nostalgia to hit – Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective returns this Summer 2023 on more platforms than ever before! Originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2010, this paranormal puzzle-solving adventure will be resurrected for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC via Steam, and the Nintendo Switch – a sweet return to the game’s original roots.

 

Players assume the role of Sissel, a brave phantom who has unexpectedly been stranded in the afterlife, yet lost his memory as to what could have possibly happened. Responsible for uncovering the memories of not just the spirit world itself, but also Sissel’s suspicious death, players can rely on his newfound supernatural abilities to discover the truth before time runs out.

 

The game comes jam-packed with new features including:

 

  • Availability on New Platforms: Players can experience Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective like never before on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam
  • Higher Quality Gameplay: Images and framerates are now adapted for 1080p/60fps visuals
  • Optimized UI Features: With new platforms comes compatibility for both controllers and touch screens (applicable only for platforms with built-in touch screen functionality)
  • Nine Languages (Three Brand New!): Now playable in nine languages, including English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean (new), Simplified Chinese (new), and Traditional Chinese (new)
  • New Challenges: Newly added Trophies can be obtained by completing different levels of the game alongside new-to-console Ghost Puzzles
  • Fresh Music and Illustrations: Available in the Extras menu, players can now access a collection of newly recorded and arranged music tracks alongside unique illustrations

 

While this is all of the news and information we currently have, we are excited to wait and see what else comes out before its release in Summer 2023.
