Adventure

Stealth

With its intricate level design and emphasis on player choice, the original Dishonored established itself as a benchmark for stealth action. The ability to approach each assassination target with a wide array of supernatural powers, gadgets, and environmental opportunities encourages experimentation and replayability. Its compelling worldbuilding, from the plague-ridden streets of Dunwall to the political machinations of its key characters, further cemented its place in the genre.

About Dishonored: Definitive Edition

Details
Dishonored is set in Dunwall, an industrial whaling city where strange steampunk-inspired technology and otherworldly forces coexist in the shadows. You are the once-trusted bodyguard of the beloved Empress. Framed for her murder, you become an infamous assassin, known only by the disturbing mask that has become your calling card. In a time of uncertainty, when the city is besieged by plague and ruled by a corrupt government armed with industrial technologies, dark forces conspire to bestow upon you abilities beyond those of any common man, but at what cost? The truth behind your betrayal is as murky as the waters surrounding the city, and the life you once had is gone forever.
