    [​IMG]Pinkerton Road Studio today announced that Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers will be released on October 15th. You can also pre-order the game now.

    Jane Jensen's Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers 20th Anniversary Edition Coming to Steam, GOG and Other Online Retailers for PC & Mac

    Pinkerton Road Studio today announced that the highly-anticipated Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers® 20th Anniversary Edition, a modern remake of one of Sierra 's greatest adventure games of all-time, is expected to be available for purchase on PC and Mac on October 15th, 2014.

    Licensed from Activision Publishing, Inc, overseen by original series creator Jane Jensen, and developed in partnership with leading indie team Phoenix Online Studios, this high-definition update of the adventure game classic Gabriel Knight adds brand new puzzles and scenes, gorgeous new high-res backgrounds, a remastered soundtrack, and more New Orleans flavor to the beloved original story, plus exclusive new behind-the-scenes material including original concept sketches, articles and brand new audio interviews with Jane Jensen and members of the original Sierra development team to provide a more complete view on the Gabriel Knight series than has ever been available before.

    Preorders are now available at Steam, GOG.com, the Phoenix Online Store and more at 15% off the $19.99 retail price, and include the pre-order exclusive soundtrack by Robert Holmes.

    In anticipation of the release, starting on October 6th, Pinkerton and Phoenix will be running a "10 Days of Gabriel Knight" countdown with a host of new assets releasing daily, including screenshots, music downloads, cutscenes from the game, and a brand new Gabriel Knight short story by Jane Jensen-the first new addition to the official Gabriel Knight canon since 1998!

    Hailed by Adventure Gamers as one of the most well-written games ever and given an Honorable Mention in the AV Club's Top 100 Games of All Time, Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers 20th Anniversary Edition invites players to relive the classic voodoo murder mystery that's captivated generations of game enthusiasts for two decades. In the game, players will take on the role of roguishly handsome Gabriel Knight, a struggling author and owner of a bookstore in New Orleans, who is investigating the Voodoo Murders for his new book: a series of savage ritual killings surrounded by voodoo trappings. But his search into the dark underbelly of New Orleans will reveal far more than who's behind the killings, as Gabriel is drawn to the beautiful and aloof Malia Gedde, learns the secrets of his family history, and must comes to grips with his own destiny if he's going to survive.

    "It's been a dream to be able to work on Gabriel Knight again, and I'm so exciting to bring it to a new audience. I think it looks amazing and it has all the classic gameplay," said Jane Jensen, creator of the series.

    "Gabriel Knight is the reason why I became a developer. It was a groundbreaking game that showed the power of Jane Jensen's storytelling," added Cesar Bittar, CEO of Phoenix Online and producer of the project. "

    The honor of working alongside Jane in remaking one the most beloved adventure games of all times is definitely for me a golden opportunity, but also a huge responsibility, and we are doing our very best to ensure old fans and new will be thrilled by the results and ready to play as a Schattenjager once again."
