Dishonored was great; a sneaky, steampunky adventure that was the first game since the prodigious Thief 2 to really nail first-person stealth mechanics.

Now it's back, and this time you get to control the young princess from the original, Emily, and her disturbing be-tentacled magic powers, as well as metal-masked assassin Corvo. Once again, you rely on a combination of stealth and magic powers - such as the classic teleporting (sorry, "Blinking"), as well as new ones like Emily's "Shadow Walk", which lets her get around as an untouchable black cloud - to overthrow the hegemony of Dunwall.

That colourful, exaggerated visual style from the original makes a return, and the neo-Victorian city of Dunwall looks more diverse and unique than ever with the power of current-gen graphics behind it.
