The world's greatest detective is about to encounter unspeakable horrors and an unimaginable mystery, as CDV announced a publishing agreement for Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened for the PC. In The Awakened, players will take on the role of Sherlock Holmes in a fantastic new mystery involving dark secrets and unholy terrors. The game is set for a September 2007 release.

In development by Frogwares, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened combines the eerie mysticism of H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos with the mystery-solving powers of the great fictional detective - Sherlock Holmes. The Awakened is the first fully 3D Sherlock Holmes game, and will feature rich graphics and detailed environments. Fans of the mystery genre will feel right at home with the point-and-click interface as they explore multiple distinctly chilling environments while solving mysteries and completing challenging and creative puzzles. With 60 unique characters roaming the game world, it will be difficult to tell who is friend or foe in this, Sherlock Holmes' most challenging, and horrifying, adventure.
