The reimagining of the celebrated fiction novel, starring Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, is set in Egypt in the 1970s. David Chomard, CEO of the development studio, mentioned, "We have raised the level of difficulty with more complex puzzles and offered more freedom in the progression of the investigation. In addition, the adventure weaves the stories of Hercule Poirot and Jane Royce, the new detective, even more closely together."
Music for the game is by Murder on the Orient Express composer Jean-Luc Briançon and his urban jazz band Abigoba. Agatha Christie - Death on the Nile os available for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S consoles, along Windows through Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store. The Limited Edition physical release includes a 48-page art book and digital soundtrack.
Microids' previously released Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express also features score by pianist and keyboardist Briançon, assisted by Roman Perreton, in collaboration with guest musicians at Studio Nuage7. The album is also available through streaming platforms.
