Developer posts and news about this game.
Yesterday, Xbox announced that they were spinning off five major studios in the course of the latest round of "historic" restructuring , with 1600 jobs instantly chopped and 1600 more layoffs to follow over the next financial year. It's the latest in a string of failures on the p
Dishonored co-directors Raphael Colantonio and Harvey Smith seem like good mates. In a newly published YouTube let's play of their creation, they sit side by side, both dressed in black t-shirts like a married couple who've gone to great pains to coordinate their threads. Would t
Dishonored remains my personal favorite of Arkane Austin's lineup. I appreciated the studio's take on Prey, and even have a playthrough of Redfall under my belt (I'll maintain it had the foundations of something great, though it never stuck the landing). It's the 2012 sneak-em-up
Arkane founder and Dishonored co-director Raphaël Colantonio says Xbox Game Pass is an "unsustainable model" that's been damaging the videogame industry for years, and that it can't continue to exist alongside other similar subscriptions. Colantonio adds that Game Pass should be
Much like many of you, I suspect, I too would love a Dishonored 3, but I'm not entirely confident it will ever happen. Arkane Austin was obviously shut down last year , and Arkane Lyon are making a Blade game , which leaves little room for a Dishonored sequel. But is there any po
It's anyone's guess when we'll see another Fallout , so some former developers of Prey (2017) and Dishonored are working on a retro-futuristic project that may just fill the gap. So far, it sounds like a mixture of Bethesda's post-nuclear role-playing game, Weird West, and the af
Arkane founder and Dishonored co-creative director Raphaël Colantonio says the Metacritic scoring ecosystem encourages devs to make "safe, boring games," while launches like Stalker 2 suffer in overall scoring at launch due to bugs and technical problems. Colantonio calls lower l
The infinite debate about what is and isn't an immersive sim continues to rage on, as one of the co-creators of Dishonored says he thinks Skyrim is one. Immersive sim, as a genre, is a really hard one to define. I'm not even going to try to define it in any meaningful way for you
It's hardly the feature for which Dishonored is most keenly remembered, but back in 2012, I was very impressed by 'The Heart.' You hold it up, you point it at an enemy, and it tells you something about them, something from deep within their soul. Suddenly, they're not just an NPC
King Charles unveiled the first official portrait of himself since his coronation earlier this week, and uh, he only looks a little bit like an Elden Ring boss. I'm not quite sure who told the artist behind Charles' first portrait as King to make him look like he is engulfed in t
Dishonored , Prey, Deathloop, and some of the best stealth immersive sim games ever made by Arkane Studios are part of an incredible Steam sale right now. With up to 90% on the developer's back catalog, minus this year's much-maligned Redfall, there are some truly excellent games
In a pretty big leak of documents that have come from the FTC's court case with Microsoft , it's been revealed that Dishonored 3 is in the works. Back in 2018, developer Arkane said that Dishonored was " resting for now ," meaning it was moving on to develop other projects. That
A QuakeCon sale gives you huge discounts on many top series from the legendary studios behind some of the best FPS games . Along with Doom and Quake creator id Software, Bethesda (now a part of Microsoft) also comprises Wolfenstein developers Machine Games, Dishonored and Deathlo
The Elder Scrolls , Doom, Fallout, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Quake, The Evil Within - you name it, Bethesda has some of the best PC games in its catalog, and you can get most of them for next to nothing right now thanks to a sale with up to 85% off the likes of Skyrim , Oblivion,
Dishonored was Arkane’s breakout hit, the assassination sandbox that elevated the studio to the top table of immersive sim makers. Its success validated Bethesda’s decision to buy Arkane a couple of years earlier, and left the publisher with a promising new series. But despite cr
The Epic Games Store's festive season of freebies has drawn to a close. The Epic Games Store's weekly freebies have therefore resumed. Right now and until January 5th you can grab Dishonored: Definitive Edition for free, which includes Arkane's first-person stealth playground and
If Twitter does die, I will miss it. Amidst the wailing lie certain gems, like this thread of developers sharing confessions and cheeky tricks from across their careers. We're talking cobbling rat-tunnel ducts together to form a makeshift flare launcher in Dishonored , or using t
After some speculation from fans, Deathloop director Dinga Bakaba confirmed that the game is in fact set in the same world as Dishonored . Arkane's games all tend to have some similarities here and there, being one of the few big developers to actually make immersive simulators,
Devolver Digital and developer WolfEye Studios announced (thanks RPG Site ) that action RPG/immersive sim hybrid Weird West would be delayed to March 31 to make it more immersive and weird, pushing the game two months past its original release date of January. Made up of veterans
Spoiler warnings for Mass Effect 2. I'm not sure why I liked Kelly Chambers so much. There's definitely more exciting characters in Mass Effect 2. She was just cool is all. They seemed so good together, her and my Shepherd, two straight-talking women on a ship full of neverending
