British actor Rahul Kohli (Saros, Midnight Mass) has a pitch for a new L.A. Noire game, and it sounds pretty great. Speaking to BAFTA Games<\/a>, Kohli said he would like to see the franchise return with a spinoff that takes players through different time periods, as a cop, as they investigate different crimes.<\/p>\n

One such setting could be Victorian England, with a storyline focused on hunting down Jack the Ripper, Kohli said. Another could take players to the ’80s in California as they pursue the Night Stalker, the actor added. <\/p>\n

“We could jump around and be a cop in different times. I would be down for that,” Kohli said. “I loved it. I adored L.A. Noire.”<\/p>\n

In particular, Kohli said he was a big fan of developer Team Bondi’s facial-capture system which created lifelike expressions in the game, down to granular details like how a person\u2019s eyebrows might move.<\/p>\n

In a game where players had to read people’s facial expressions, this was a big deal, and one can only imagine how much further the technology could go today. However, Kohli said he wants a new L.A. Noire game with the same tech and the same engine.<\/p>\n

“I want that. I don’t want an improvement to it. That was part of the charm,” he said.<\/p>\n
