Broken Sword - Parzival's Stone offers a major evolution in adventure gaming with the simplicity of a point-and-click adventure brought bang up to date with innovative, immersive gameplay. A unique ‘Super 2D’ graphic style offers stunning hand-drawn backgrounds, applied to 3D geometry which delivers the visual style, in high resolution, but with the flexibility to create incredible cinematography that is only possible in 3D.

George and Nico reunite but are soon drawn into a terrifying conspiracy in a world of hidden treasure hunters, brutal mediaeval histories, and Quantum Physics.

Known for combining scripts laced with sharp wit with logical but nonetheless challenging puzzles guarding the way, Broken Sword is a celebrated franchise within the adventure genre, having first hit the scene on PC and PlayStation back in 1996. The games are famous for transporting fans to various locations around the world as the stories link back to real historical events, famously focusing on the city of lights and love, Paris, as well as Syria, Egypt, Spain, Scotland, Ireland, and even Glastonbury, amongst numerous others.

Broken Sword stands as one of the genre’s most acclaimed series, featuring in top adventure game lists to this day.

In Broken Sword - Parzival's Stone, you will:

  • Take on the roles of George and Nico as they investigate an ancient manuscript and find themselves drawn into a terrifying conspiracy and into a world of Nazi treasure hunters, ancient mediaeval histories, and Quantum Physics.

  • Navigate the manuscript’s clues to uncover the secret location of the Grail (but not as one might expect): a mythical treasure, lost for a thousand years.

  • Rival ruthless technology entrepreneurs, corrupt government agencies, and billion-dollar global energy corporations which are also out to beat our heroes to the ultimate goals. Because George and Nico might just well be the only thing stopping the whole world from armageddon.

  • Play out your adventure in a ‘Super 2D’ environment, sculpted using 2D coloured background elements applied to 3D geometry to move in realtime.

Broken Sword - Parzival's Stone will be available in early 2024 on console, PC, and mobile. Check out the official announcement trailer and the first screenshots.
