Dishonored is a first-person shooter video game being developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2012 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[1]

The player controls Corvo, once a bodyguard for the Empress, who seeks vengeance against Lord Regent who framed Corvo for the assassination of the Empress. The game is presented in open world format as the player can roam The Isles as well as the distant Pandyssian Continent, though the primary setting for the game is the steampunk city of Dunwall.[2] The game is a first-person shooter, but an emphasis is placed on stealth action and the utilization of gadgets as well as the environment to eliminate opposing forces.[3]
