Dishonored for PC, X360 and PS3 is an innovative blend of an FPS and a stealth game, with player choices affecting both gameplay and the environment. The fictional world of the game that you visit, is relies heavily on steampunk aura and 19th-century aesthetics.

The game was developed by the French Arcane Studios, founded by Rafa Colantonio, the creator of such titles as Arx Fatalis and Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. Colantonio’s experienced team received also support from Harvey Smith, co-creator of the first two parts of Deus Ex, and Viktor Antonov, who was responsible for concepts and projects of the City 17, a location featured in Half-Life 2.

Plot

In Dishonored you take on the role of Corvo, a respected bodyguard to the Empress assassinated during a coup organized by a corrupted Lord Regent. In order to divert the attention from the conspiracy he prepared, the Regent falsely accuses the protagonist of the crime. However, he does not fully realize that Corvo is one of the most dangerous men in the world, an experienced warrior who can easily disappear from enemy's sight if he wishes to. A master-class martial artist, proficient with a number of innovative gadgets (sticky bombs, automatic traps, tranquilizer darts, etc.), Corvo is also gifted with supernatural abilities and powers (such as super-speed, teleportation, double jump). Determined to serve justice where it is due, he escapes from the prison and begins a methodical revenge.

Bethesda Wasn't Convinced About Dishonored 3, So We Got Deathloop Instead

The poor reception of Dishonored 2 led to the birth of Deathloop. The title was originally intended to be a „small game,” filling the gap before Arkane's next major project.

Expansion

August 13, 2013

Action

The second story expansion for Dishonored, a stealth action game created by Arkane. It continues the story of the first expansion - The Knife of Dunwall. Again, we play as the assassin of the empress, Daud, who departs for the lair of a witch by the name of Delilah in order to prevent her from carrying out a ritual that would allow for his final condemnation. To face the antagonist, and the coven she is the leader of, Daud has to explore the unknown districts of Dunwall and ally himself with the local gangs - Dead Eels and Hatters. The Brigmore Witches does not bring any significant changes to the gameplay, during which the player makes use of the powers brought in by the first expansion - Void Gaze, Blink, and Summon Assassin. The players can transfer their characters from the first expansion, keeping their previously acquired skills and weapons.

Action

The first story-based DLC for Arkane Studios' steampunk stealth game Dishonored, released in 2012. Expansion called The Knife of Dunwall allows you to look at the events shown in the base game from a completely different perspective. We play as the empress's murderer himself - leader of a group of assassins named Daud, who tries to redeem himself in the course of the game (and who, unlike Corvo from the "basic" game, received a full voiceover).
