Dear gumshoes,

The past three months have been crazy busy. We've been really disappointed that we haven't been able to update you guys in a while, and that's a combination of just being caught up in so many things, but also because we were waiting for results and news we can share: and we've finally got the best announcements to share with you today.

Without further ado...



This is not a drill, this is the real release date! Everyone in the team is so excited for you to step on the shoes of Amira Darma and start a quest around Singapore and the world.

We prepared a new trailer for this special announcement:

Looking forward to release day!

Until then, stay safe!
