Ubisoft has agreed to develop a new video game based on the hit US TV series Crime Scene Investigation.

The French publisher will oversee the development of CSI: Deadly Intent, which is orientated around season nine of the Las Vegas version of the show.

As with previous CSI video games, the player will engage in a range of evidence collection measures to solve some mysterious murders, with storylines being provided by the actual series writers.

Developer Telltale Games has introduced new gameplay mechanics for the latest title, including the chance to help out fellow detectives to earn their respect.

An improved witness interview system will also feature, alongside the latest forensic technology imaginable.

Ubisoft's senior vice president of US sales and marketing Tony Key said: "CSI: Deadly Intent's intriguing cases, realistic graphics, enhanced character acting and precise lip sync with the voices of the actors from the show will provide fans the life-like experience they are looking for in a video game based on a television show."

The game will be released on Xbox 360, PC, Wii and DS in the autumn.

Other Ocean Interactive is looking after the DS version, which will apparently include "additional bizarre cases" and a unique storyline to make players "feel like a real CSI character".
