↵ It's been a long road for Dishonored 2 , Bethesda's now-embattled sequel. While a release on PS4 Pro is bound to help them along, the sequel to 2012's Stealth-action hit also had to face a questionable review policy change and early reports of shoddy PC performance.

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...

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.

None of my saves were early enough in the playthrough to figure out who or where, so I finished the mission intending to simply hit “replay” like in the first game. No such option.

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.

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...
