The Sexy Brutale is a puzzle game developed by Cavalier Game Studios in collaboration with Rime developers Tequila Works. It's a "never-ending masked ball puzzle adventure" coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the first quarter of 2017 and it features "intrigue, murder and the quite-possibly occult".

According to a press release sent to Gamereactor the game is "set during a single, endlessly-looping day within "The Sexy Brutale" - a stately English mansion converted into a bizarre casino and named by the enigmatic Marquis - players take on the role of elderly priest Lafcadio Boone. To progress, Boone must hide, watch and learn the colourful stories of the other guests at the ball in order to save them from grisly deaths at the hands of the mansion's staff."

"By discovering the key moments and methods how each guest can be saved and gaining occult-seeming powers linked to their masks, Lafcadio is able to explore deeper and deeper into the mysteries of the mansion's past and inhabitants to uncover the truth hidden at the heart of The Sexy Brutale."

The concept was created by ex-Lionhead veteran Tom Lansdale and brothers Charles and James Griffiths. They showed it to friends for response and criticism, and among those friends were Tequila Works CEO Raúl Rubio. Of the project, Rubio said:

"When Cavalier asked for our feedback on their build of The Sexy Brutale, I immediately knew we had to be part of it. By combining the unique talents of both our teams we are proud to have created a genuinely intriguing and unforgettable experience for players to enjoy."

Below you can watch the first teaser for the The Sexy Brutale, as well as some screens and a piece of concept art.
