No, we’re not talking about a game that’s disappeared…that entire title above is literally the title of the game we’re talking about. This is a new game that was developed by Arc System Works, created by a number of staff members from the defunct studio CiNG and headed up by Taisuke Kanasaki.
The CiNG studio was well known for creating narrative-driven titles for handheld consoles, such as Hotel Dusk: Room 125 and Trace Memory. This new game, Chase: Unsolved Cases Investigation Division – Distant Memories, looks similar to the others, and Arc System Works has confirmed its localization for this side of the world under a shortened title. It will be Chase: Cold Case Investigations – Distant Memories.
The game will arrive this coming Fall, with a firm release date still to come.
