The slick, sci-fi detective game Nobody Wants to Die continues to impress, this time in 10 minutes of gritty gameplay, courtesy of IGN. Shockingly, it's out next week, launching on 17th July on PS5, and it looks like the kind of hard-boiled noir thriller we could see ourselves getting lost in.
Developed by Critical Hit and published by Plaion, the narrative (naturally) revolves around investigating a killer on the loose, using powers of time manipulation to re-create crime scenes and put all the pieces together. With a retro-futuristic take on art-deco design aesthetics, it even has a bit of BioShock about it, so colour us intrigued.

Just a “portfolio filler” for the company!
Stylin’ I’m gettin that
Sure, if a physical edition comes along I’ll bite.
This looks amazing, the transition
