Broken Sword: The Serpent's Curse is an adventure that will hurl intrepid lawyer George Stobbart and sassy journalist Nico Collard onto the trail of a murderous conspiracy forged in the cauldron of war-torn Europe.

Mixing cerebral puzzling, sharp wit, with historical authenticity and intrigue,  Broken Sword 5: the Serpent’s Curse has secured its place as a favorite with fans of the series, whilst also winning over a new generation of players.

When a mysterious painting is stolen during an armed raid on a Paris gallery, George Stobbart and Nico Collard are thrown, seemingly by chance, into the investigation together. From Paris to London and beyond, the trail becomes a race against time as dark forces from Europe's turbulent past are woken from their slumber. Broken Sword characters old and new are encountered - but who can George and Nico trust? The journey they are on reveals a conspiracy as old as the written word, whose ancient heresies will cause innocent blood to spill once more...


Revolution Software and Ravenscourt are excited to announce that Broken Sword 5: the Serpent’s Curse will release worldwide for Nintendo Switch on 21st September 2018 at a price of £24.99 (€29.99).

The game includes Behind the Scenes movies created especially for the Nintendo Switch version. Unlocked as play progresses, these videos reveal the story and the development process behind the game, through previously unreleased interviews with the Broken Sword team.
