Blacksad: Under the Skin popped up on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Marketplace in European regions, over a week before the developers and publisher intended to launch the game (via PlayStation LifeStyle).
Players are able to purchase the detective noir game due to a ‘technical malfunction’, but publisher Microids would like you to hold your horses before curiosity kills the cat. The team have a patch planned to iron out the last of the technical hitches and to ensure that players ‘experience the game like the development team at Pendulo Studios envisioned it.’
This update will come to the game in a couple of days, and Microids listed what problems the day one patch will focus on. Character animations and lip-sync will be sorted, loading textures and their quality will be improved, and ambient sounds, music, and sound effects will trigger at the appropriate points. The physical release of the Blacksad: Under the Skin for consoles and the PC release on Steam is still set for November 14. Switch players will be able to get their paws on the game towards the end of the month, on November 28.

Blacksad: Under the Skin is a video game adaptation of an award-winning French and Spanish comic book series, and follows a detective named John Blacksad. Set in the U.S. during the 1950s, his work investigates corporate corruption, marital affairs, murders, criminal organisations, and drugs rings. And, if it had escaped your notice, all of the characters are anthropomorphic animals.
