Nintendo revealed during its Nintendo Direct stream on Wednesday that Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro and Toybox are developing Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise, a Nintendo Switch sequel to the developer's Deadly Premonition game. The game will launch in 2020.
In addition, Nintendo revealed that the original game is now digitally available on the Switch with the title Deadly Premonition Origins. Aksys Games will release a physical version in November.
Rising Star Games describes the new game:
Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is an open-world game set in the small town of Le Carré. Your story starts in Boston, where it turns out FBI Special Agent Francis York Morgan will have to revisit the case he thought was solved in 2005. You will be solving various murders and crimes while jumping between 2005 and 2019 in true Deadly Premonition fashion.
Rising Star Games is publishing the game in North America, the Americas, Australia, and New Zealand, while Toybox will publish the game in Japan and Asia.
The original Deadly Premonition shipped for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2010. The game received a director's cut edition for the PS3 and PC in 2013.
