Detective Thriller The Seance of Blake Manor Launches on Consoles in October

The detective thriller The Seance of Blake Manor is scheduled to launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2 on October 27. The game is already available on PC, where it was released in October 2025.

The story of The Seance of Blake Manor is set in Ireland on Halloween eve in 1897. A gathering of mystics from around the world arrives at Blake Manor aiming to conduct a séance and make contact with the dead. Evelyn Dean vanishes without a trace 48 hours before the ritual begins. Detective Declan Ward arrives at the manor to locate the missing woman and determine who orchestrated her disappearance.

Players interview and interrogate multiple suspects, analyze motives, catch contradictions, and record evidence in a detective notebook. Exploring the estate also involves solving environmental and spatial puzzles, while certain areas open up only under specific conditions.

A central gameplay feature is the real-time mechanic. Every action Ward takes affects the progression of the case, with major events unfolding at fixed times. Players must be in the right location at the right time to uncover crucial leads.
