WISBECH, UK (6th APRIL 2021) — Indie developer D’Avekki Studios is thrilled to announce critically-acclaimed FMV game Dark Nights with Poe and Munro will release on May 4th 2021 for PS4 and Xbox One, with backwards compatibility for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. A release date for the Switch version is still to be announced.
Dark Nights with Poe and Munro tasks players with keeping small-town radio hosts John ‘Poe’ Pope and Ellis Munro together and alive through six TV-like episodes of supernatural mystery. A standalone prequel to 2018’s The Shapeshifting Detective, Dark Nights with Poe and Munro is the third game from the studio but the first to be ported to consoles in-house. The game released on Steam in May 2020 to praise from players and reviewers alike and the studio hopes console players will take to it just as warmly.
