Tale of Tales' Sunset reveals May release date

Steamy spy tale due on Steam.

Sunset, the upcoming game by Bientôt l'été's, and The Path developer Tale of Tales, will launch on 21st May via Steam, the developer has announced.

The game casts players in the role of a housekeeper tasked with maintaining the home of a revolutionary spy in a fictitious war-torn tropical island during the early 70s. By cleaning this dashing insurgent's abode, you'll be able to piece together the surrounding political turmoil, muck about with his snazzy spy gadgets, and even flirt with him. Or sabotage him, if you're that kind of maid.

Sunset was a big success on Kickstarter, where it more than doubled its $25K goal with an ending tally of $67,636.

Pre-orders for Sunset are currently available for $14.99 (about £10), 25 per cent off its full price.

If you happen to be in New York next month you can check out Sunset a few days early at Kill Screen's Two5six Festival's Arcade running 15th-17th May.
