Update: Dishonored 2 has been nominated for IGN's 2016 Game of the Year . No two playthroughs are the same in Dishonored 2 . Developer Arkane has doubled down on the original's play-your-way formula with two separate sets of skills, a deep and multifaceted world, and a dizzying array of level...

In 2012, Bethesda and Arkane Studios blessed us with the sublime Dishonored , a game with a unique art style and encouraged a variety of play-styles, from stealth to all out slaughter.

Two playable characters with Emily and Corvo; Fantastic new powers introduced; Great level design offers many routes; Visually stunning world

Save data from original would have been somewhat of a cool feature

There are so many ways that you can play Dishonored 2 , and it's a credit to Arkane Studios that they've built a world and woven in systems that facilitate such a range of different styles.

I've finally managed to get a solid number of hours into Arkane Studios' newest game Dishonored 2 . As a huge fan of the first, I was excited to sink many hours into leaning around corners, blinking across chandeliers, and leaving a trail of sleeping guards in compromising positions.

Brilliant level design; Deeper upgrade system; World feels alive

Most powers become obsolete; Some bugs break momentum; Voice acting can be stale at times

I've always found there to be a weird link between games like BioShock, Deus Ex and Dishonored. All of them are first-person but all of them are totally committed to building strong and believable worlds. There's some linked history between them all as well.

Dishonored 2 is a brilliant game. It's a wonderfully deep, systems-heavy first-person adventure which gives you all the tools and then begs you to go for it. Putting you in the shoes of either Emily or Corvo this time, Dishonored 2 offers more options than ever.

2012's Dishonored was a gaming triumph, which is why when publisher Bethesda announced a sequel at last year's E3, the question of whether it could top the original quickly emerged.

Beautiful environment; Rich storyline and characters; Engaging gameplay

Requires a lot of time and patience

Return once again to the Empire of the Isles, but this time we head South to Karnaca, the capital of Serkonos in a quest to reclaim the throne and your honour. In Dishonored 2, you play as either Corvo Attano, the protagonist for the previous game, or Emily Kaldwin, his daughter and Empress of the...

Great Stylized world | Fun gameplay | Excellent Voice acting | plenty of choice and variety

Actual combat is a bit dull | Some strange sound issues at times

If you're looking for something completely new and different from the original Dishonored , this is definitely not the place to look. Dishonored 2 offers a very familiar experience from the original Game of the Year Title, but you can definitely tell that developer Arkane Studios has done a lot to...

I bought the game for my wife cause she loved the first one. She played this one 3 times in a row cause she enjoyed this just as much. The game is quite good, along with the story.
