Arkane Announces Dishonored with Deus Ex, Half-Life 2 Talent

In announcing the cover for their August issue, Game Informer revealed Dishonored, a new project from Arkane Studios. Not much is revealed about the game; details are understandably withheld for the cover story. We do have a few details though.

It’s billed as a stealth action/adventure game, in which you must assassinate targets by either slipping in and out unnoticed, or setting traps to dispatch with anyone that might interfere. It sounds a lot like Hitman or Thief to me.

The game already boasts a strong development lineup, including Deus Ex designer Harvey Smith and Half-Life 2 artist Viktor Antonov. No real media for the game just yet either, but that concept art looks mighty fine if not a tad… Half-Lifey. You could tell me that was a Combine helmet and those leggy things were Striders and I’d believe you.
