Cubed³, a UK based Nintendo and gaming website, have recently posted a news article about Broken Sword DS. S.J, the author, posted a snippet of an article he found in UK magazine, N-Revolution. According to the magazine, the DS iteration of Broken Sword will be a prequel, taking in George and Nico's lives prior to the café explosion at the start of Broken Sword 1. The magazine states:

It's not a straight port. It's not even a Director's cut with extras thrown in for the sake of it. It may have had one of the most stunning openings of any game in history, but the new Broken Sword will go back in time. It will look at George Stobbart's life before an explosion in a Parisian cafe rocked his world. And it will let us see what the stunning Nico was up to prior to reporting on the intriguing events which unfolded throughout the original game.

Interesting stuff! Hopefully we'll get more information soon.

Update: A kind tipster has sent in a scan of the article. Thanks tipster! Please note that the article is copyright N.Revolution Magazine.


Thanks to supergrohl for posting the link on the forum.
