Developer ZA/UM is currently in the throes of porting its acclaimed detective RPG, Disco Elysium, to Xbox One and PS4, and says that it’s due to launch on consoles next year.
Disco Elysium, which released on PC earlier this month, casts players as a less-than-upstanding detective, who begins the game in a dishevelled heap on hotel room floor with what rapidly turns out to be alcohol-induced amnesia – conveniently allowing for plenty of scene-setting exposition, and the opportunity for players to shape their anti-hero as they see fit.
What follows starts as a murder mystery – set in the dilapidated city district of Martinaise – and then rapidly explodes out into a sprawling open-world RPG that shapes and shifts depending on players’ abilities and the choices they make throughout the extremely conversation-heavy, and impressively expansive adventure.
