Cocodrolo Games has announced the narrative-drive murder mystery game Clue: Murder by Death for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC; launches February 13th, 2026.
The game is inspired by the classic Clue board game, and transports players to a mansion in 1930 as they attempt to solve a murder.
To learn more, here is the overview and trailer as provided by the developer.
About:
After the distinguished Lord Robert Anderson is found dead in his study, only you can swoop in and solve the mystery in this classics-inspired whodunnit.
Summoned to try and solve the case just hours before Scotland Yard swoops in to take control of the situation, time (and truth) is of the essence. Paying homage to the works of British authors like Agatha Christie and Arthur Conan Doyle, it’s up to you to unearth invaluable clues, interrogate a pool of unsavoury suspects, and piece together who, how, and why!
Each playthrough of Clue: Murder by Death, presented through a recurring cycle of 2-hour gameplay loops, will wrap up with you accusing one of the 10 suspects. Of course, who knows if you’re correct in your suspicions! There are plenty of hidden motives to discover and puzzles to resolve that will build up as you play again. Only through multiple playthroughs will you be able to piece together the truth of what conspired on this fog-shrouded night and identify the real culprit.
That’s because everything is subjective depending on who you play as, with each character possessing a unique PoV that has them view people, objects and environments in different ways based on their personal relationships and experiences. What one notices, or finds suspicious, another may overlook or find entirely innocent. In Clue: Murder by Death, truth is never absolute…
The clues so far:
- Lord Robert Anderson has been found dead in his study, and it is up to you to solve the case and discover the who, how and why!
- Explore 166 rooms, find hidden clues, interrogate suspects, and point out contradictions in their stories.
- Experience the mystery through varying perspectives as each conversation and clue looks different through other characters' eyes.
- Uncover more secrets with each 2-hour gameplay cycle you complete to piece together the story over approximately 22 hours total gameplay time. Only through experiencing the night through every character will you finally reach the truth!
Clue: Murder by Death is set to launch on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PlayStation on 13 February 2026 and mobile later this year.
