SFB Games released The Mermaid Mask, the next entry in the Detective Grimoire series, on July 17, 2026. The game arrived on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam, with a PS5 version planned for a later date. The release followed a June announcement that set a July 16 launch date for most regions and a July 17 date in Japan, but the final release landed on July 17 across the supported platforms.
The Mermaid Mask is a point-and-click mystery adventure and a direct sequel to Tangle Tower. It takes place on a hand-drawn submarine where the captain is murdered in a locked room, with only an ancient stone cauldron as a clue. Players examine 3D clues and interrogate an eccentric crew. A demo was available on Steam ahead of the launch, giving players an early look at the game's 2D animated style and upgraded clue examination mechanics.
