Ubisoft announced today the latest addition to the CSI series, titled 3 Dimensions of Murder. Like the three previous installments, this game will be based on characters and storylines from the TV-series, and will be launched worldwide in the spring of 2006.

The game will take place in Las Vegas, and players will work alongside Gil Grissom, Catherine Willows and the rest of the Las Vegas cast, once again using forensic equipment and techniques to investigate crimes. This new installment will be the first to take advantage of real-time 3D, and Ubisoft also promises to introduce more character interaction, and longer, more immersive storylines.

Interestingly enough, 3 Dimensions of Murder will be produced by the former LucasArts employees of Telltale Games, who are probably best known for their Bone adventure series and their highly anticipated work with the Sam & Max license. What impact this will have on CSI's gameplay remains to be seen, but it is indeed exciting to see such seasoned adventure game designers behind a CSI title.
