First, the boxart per se, found in the game's Amazon Japan page.
Spoiler: Last Window Boxart
Second, in that same page, we can see a screenshot of Kyle reading what appears to be the letter telling him to look for the Red Star. He seems to be in front of the Cape West building.
Spoiler: Screenshot
And last but not least, the third of four imaes in that page (the fourth once is a screenshot that had already been shown) is a screenshot of the title's "Last Window" in-game. Of course, that could seem like nothing, but this specific screenshot shows the book's first pages. Just see for yourself:
Spoiler: "Last Window" screenshot
And so, the speculation begins.
By the way, could anyone translate what the text under Summer's name says?

For some reason, I believe this time Martin did write it. He can't be that much of a hipocryte, can he? Confessing everything trying to redeem himself, and then doing the same thing again? Doesn't seem likely.

DeMat is right. Plus at the end of the game, if you solved Summer's problem, he had Louie give Kyle a letter and in it it said, "I'm going to write a story on my own, and actually have it be as good as (insert whatever the name of the book was). And I'm basing my main character after you, Mr. Hyde."
Ah, you're right, that was it! (The name of the novel was "The Secret Word", by the way.)
This may be interesting. I never noticed it, but that opened a possibility for a second game...
I wonder if the "Last Window" novel tells a story similar to Kyle's father, in an apartment building. Parallel stories. I like it.
Jesus Christ, this game is going to be great!

It's a bit too blurry to get a full transalation, but the first sentence reads "Born in Kansas City in 1929."
That makes Summers about 80 today.

Oh, and 50 by Dusk, and 51 by Last Window.
Yeah, it's just bio. Nothing worth translating, I guess... Unless it mentions Summer admiting how he stole Alan's novel and such, which I doubt.

Wait 1990? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought this game took place in the 80's.
So, we're going to play in two seperate timelines?

I know, I know! 'Twas a joke, I distinctly remember Summer saying he was going to write his own book.
I'm even more excited about this game than I was while playing the first. The boxart looks cool, as do the characters, and everything seemed so much more...polished. I'm also much more interested in the story, to be honest I never much cared about Bradley. I have to wonder what Rachel's up to in this game, though.

I have to finish my Hotel Dusk replay soon...

Seeing as this is a novel, it could be a reprint or something made after LW. They're probably just making it more realistic. :)

But then there's the question of why we're reading a novel from futureland D:

Following his bio, it's probably Rex, who is apparently "interested in Kyle's past". Either that, or the figurative ghost of his father.
28 days until it reaches Japan... We should get some kind of announcement regarding non-Japan soon...

That's right. I'm pretty sure this 'novel' was written by Summers after the event of HD2 took place, and we, as 'readers' from
And nice boxart! I love it!

What bio are you talking about? And I don't remember any mention of Kyle's father in HD. But it's been a long time...

Oh, that was revealed in the latest Famitsu scan. Rex's bio and Kyle's father in Last Window's plot.

It'd be quite a twist. I can't wait for the sequel though!
Am I the only one who thinks "snackoo" should be an onomatopoeia? *snackoo* *snackoo* *snackoo*
Klavier = piano, Phoenix fails at both, the end.
I could've sworn Klavier was an actual name...

How he got to know about that... maybe Rex is a spy sent by Summer to get to know what/who Kyle Hyde actually is :p
Seriously, I don't think Cing would chose such a cheesy ending, and it's pretty much déjà-vu...
That's just my opinion anyway...

Whoa! You mean the first HD game could just be Kyle acting out Summers' novel so its not real?!
When did I (or Lucy Verity) say that?
And yep, Last Window is HD2... well, more precisely, the sequel to the first Hotel Dusk game.

I had a thought--if this is true, won't the book just be a rehash of the events we play in the game? What is the point in hearing about the story twice, unless the different perspectives offer something really different?
I just hope the book doesn't turn out to be the 'recap' thing at the end of each chapter, which Cing loves to do so much.

The novel will undoubtly be of the same kind as those novels which consists of 'true events' dramatized, or in other words, those books 'based on real events', that sort of thing.

Actually, in one trailer I'm pretty sure you can see Kyle holding the "Last Window" novel. So I'm pretty sure it had already been published by 1980.
Now, why there was a "1990" in the screenshots, no idea... Maybe most of his novels were set in the "1990" decade, y'know?
