Colombian indie studio KillaSoft announced a notable game that will interest fans of noir detectives at gamescom Latam, which is held in Brazil.

Here's What We Know

The little-known development team presented the debut trailer of The Shadow Syndicate - a game that combines elements of action, shooter and, partly, visual novel with stealth elements.

The events of the game are set in 1930s Brooklyn, and the main character is a retired military officer Sam Marlowe, who became a private detective and decided to fight crime in the deeply corrupted city.

All characters of The Shadow Syndicate are anthropomorphic animals, than appearance reflects their characters and occupation.

Players will have to interrogate suspects, search for clues, correlate the obtained information, sneak into the territory of criminals, participate in dynamic shootouts.

The Shadow Syndicate's visual design can't be overlooked - it doesn't pretend to be realistic, but it looks stylish and atmospheric.

When We Can Expect It

The Shadow Syndicate is expected to release in 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch 2.
