Broken Sword - The Smoking Mirror: Reforged, the graphic adventure rises in 4K

Revolution Software today announced the development of Broken Sword - The Smoking Mirror: Reforged, a faithful reimagining of the second installment in the celebrated and award-winning point-and-click adventure series. Currently in development for PC (Windows, Mac, Linux) and Consoles (PlayStation 5, Xbox One / Series X|S, Nintendo Switch), this new edition follows the success of Broken Sword - The Shadow of the Templars: Reforged, released in 2024 and critically acclaimed as "a new standard on how to make point-and-clicks more accessible today" – a recognition of Revolution's mission: to win over a new generation of players without forgetting the saga's long-time fans.

In conjunction with the announcement, Revolution will launch a "coming soon" page for the game on Kickstarter, inviting fans to sign up for updates. More news will be coming very soon...

“The Smoking Mirror has always been one of our most beloved games, and with Reforged we've managed to enhance it in ways that respect the original, making it shine in the eyes of a modern audience”, says Charles Cecil, founder and CEO of Revolution Software. “Just like with the first chapter, we can't wait for players, old and new, to experience it again”.

The Steam page for Broken Sword - The Smoking Mirror: Reforged is now available, allowing fans to add it to their wishlist and receive development news ahead of its release.

• Switch with a click between the original 1997 version and the new Reforged graphics.
• Play your way: choose the “traditional mode”, to relive the adventure in classic style, or the “story mode”, which offers discreet hints to avoid frustration.
