About Dishonored

Dishonored poster

Dishonored is an immersive first-person action game that casts you as a supernatural assassin driven by revenge. Its flexible combat system encourages creativity in how you eliminate your targets, combining supernatural abilities, weapons and unusual gadgets at your disposal. You can slip through the shadows unseen or attack head on with weapons drawn, and the outcome of each mission plays out based on the choices you make.

The story unfolds in Dunwall, an industrial whaling city where steampunk-inspired technology and otherworldly forces coexist in the shadows. You were once the trusted bodyguard of the beloved Empress, but framed for her murder you become an infamous assassin known only by the disturbing mask that serves as your calling card. As plague besieges the city and a corrupt government rules with industrial technologies, dark forces grant you abilities beyond any common man, though the truth behind your betrayal runs as murky as the waters surrounding Dunwall.

Play is built around improvisation, letting you approach each assassination in your own style. You can use shadow and sound to move silently past foes or confront enemies directly as they react to your aggression. As an action adventure FPS on PC, Dishonored rewards experimentation and makes every decision ripple through its grim, atmospheric world.
