The Madrid designer that we have been at the forefront of for the past few years Blacksad: Under the skin and Yesterday origins, and earlier at the origin of the franchise Run away, is used to twisting police intrigues. Here he attacks the universe of one of the most famous directors of thrillerto deliver what may be the first in a series of games based on the British director’s films.
Alfred Hitchcock – vertigo, with the same name as the feature film Cold sweat Published in 1960, it appears to take back most of the codes from the original work. The trailer shows a central figure with a tortured mind, a high-contrast and almost monochrome photo in which the red tones are reminiscent of the poster and the opening credits of the film, or the famous close-up of the eye that announces the title … even the birds of the other feature film of the same name of the filmmaker are in the game.
And as an additional promise of loyalty to the source medium the video ends with a mention of the support of the National Center for Cinematography
Alfred Hitchcock – vertigo So both players looking for a dark and tortured new story and fans of the director and his filmography could be satisfied. In the end, It should be noted that only the Xbox Series X | S and Xbox One are mentioned, a sign that the title could well be exclusive on these machines. If so, more images could be revealed in a week at the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase at E3 2021, unless the publisher decides to wait a few more weeks before showing more.
