A new trailer for Professor Layton and the New World of Steam has shown off a neat twist to this surprise puzzle-solving sequel’s story.
After a long wait for a new entry in the series, New World of Steam will place the Professor as something of a newcomer himself, in a story which moves the series’ action to America.
It’s here that Layton’s former protégé Luke has been living following the events of 2010’s The Unwound Future, and where he has since made a name for himself as a local detective. The newly-arrived Layton, meanwhile, is an unknown – and so in this game the usual rookie/pro relationship will be reversed.
