Deadly Premonition Origins Launches for Nintendo Switch Retail

Directed by video game industry legend SWERY65 (D4: Dark Dreams Don’t Die, The Good Life), Deadly Premonition has the player guide FBI Special Agent Francis York Morgan around the rural town of Greenvale, Washington as he investigates the identity of the Raincoat Killer. Interact with a roster of eccentric, memorable characters, fight off peculiar paranormal forces, and stare into cups of coffee to solve the case in this legendarily off-the-wall title. Joe DeVader of Nintendo World Report commented, “to put it bluntly, the characters in Deadly Premonition are probably some of the biggest weirdoes in video game history.”
 
Regularly regarded as an example of ‘games as art,’ Deadly Premonition holds the Guinness World Record for the most critically polarizing survival-horror game, cementing its status as a cult classic for the genre.
 
Deadly Premonition Origins is available now at retail for $39.99 for the Standard Edition and $49.99 for the Collector’s Edition. The game has been rated M for Mature by the ESRB.
