Alfred Hitchcock Vertigo New Announcement Teaser Released
Developer Pendulo Studios and publisher Microids have announced the story-driven adventure game Alfred Hitchcock Vertigo for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC (Steam). Also, the game is scheduled to be released in late 2021.
“Of course, Alfred Hitchcock’s movie was a major inspiration source, whether it’s about the game’s themes, its narration, or even the visual techniques we used that clearly mirrored Hitchcock’s recurrent cinematographic techniques,” said Pendulo Studios narrative designer Josue Monchan in a press release. “Vertigo is not our only frame of reference. For instance, the fact that therapy is at the core of the narrative echoes Spellbound, and some characters resemble protagonists from Rebecca, Psycho, and many more.”
