For the next ten days, new content including screenshots, movies, interviews and the like will be released each and every day until the game is released. How they did not call it '10 Days Of Knight' is an error beyond words and someone ought to be fired.
Per the official website, "Starting the 10 Days Countdown with a bang, publisher Pinkerton Road and developer Phoenix Online Studios have released new screenshots of the Ritter's ancestral German home, Schloss Ritter. The new scenes have been updated from the original Sins of the Fathers to more closely match the castle as seen in the sequel, Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within (my personal favorite of the trilogy), where the castle featured as a central location."
