The year is 2005 and York has arrived in the fictional town of Le Carré, Louisiana following the trail of the drug Saint Rouge and to investigate a ritualistic murder. Taking place in two time periods, most of the game puts players back in the shoes of FBI agent Francis York Morgan (call him York, everybody does) pre-Greenvale. Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise, a sequel and a prequel to the game I and many adored. Yet, here we are in 2020 and we finally have it. I would have loved a sequel but as time went by and all we got we’re re-releases and ports of the original, it seemed like that would never happen. All its flaws just part of its charm and I still rate it as one of the best games I played in the last decade.

It was a game that I fell madly in love with. That game was Deadly Premonition and I loved it. A game famous for its off-kilter story, strange characters, surreal locations, graphical and performance issues and overall wackiness. For everyone who loved it, there were many more who hated it. A game that had some of the most polarising reviews I’d ever seen.
