Pocketwatch has revealed that its upcoming indie stealth title Monaco would be launched simultaneously on the PC and on the Xbox Live service from Microsoft.

The game has been in development for more than three years and it has not yet received a launch date, but the team is clearly interested in reaching as many potential players as possible.

Monaco is a game about stealing high value property from well-protected houses and will use a minimal art style with a focus on complex gameplay.

A number of characters can be selected and the player will need to manage their abilities and their skills in order to be able to get in and out with the prize without being detected.

Monaco managed to take home two awards at the 2010 edition of the Game Developers Conference Independent Games Festival Awards, including the Seumas McNally Grand Prize and the Excellence in Design award.
