When a mysterious painting is stolen during an armed raid on a Paris gallery, George and Nico are thrown by chance into the investigation together. From Paris to London and beyond, the trail becomes a race against time as dark forces from Europe’s turbulent past are woken from their slumber. Broken Sword characters old and new are encountered – but who can George and Nico trust? The journey they are on reveals a conspiracy as old as the written word, whose ancient heresies will cause innocent blood to spill once more…

Charles Cecil has assembled a team including many of the original Revolution crew. Rolf Saxon (voice of George) is brushing dust off his microphone and other former voice actors from the series are ready to roll.

Revolution is returning to its 2D roots. The best artists have been recruited including those who have worked at Disney, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, Universal, Aardman, Sony and 20th Century Fox. Backgrounds are drawn in 2D by experienced layout artists. Game characters are created and animated in 3D and then pre-rendered and saved as 2D frames for the delivery of ultra high-quality visuals in full HD glory.

The game will be fully localised into German and French and hopefully other languages, including Spanish and Italian.

Broken Sword is one of the world´s best loved adventure series, having been played by over 10 million players and earning exceptional reviews. Broken Sword 5 – the Serpent’s Curse builds on this rich heritage.
