Check Out Two New Gameplay Videos for Dishonored 2

Check Out Two New Gameplay Videos for Dishonored 2

Heading to Karnaca

By Ashley Samuel

These two new gameplay videos for Bethesda's Dishonored 2 are seriously sweet, grab a brew and watch the awesome unfold!

The first showcases an epic play through using Emily Kaldwin, the former Empress as Dunwall, as she infiltrates the Clockwork Mansion.


The next video demonstrates the varied gameplay on offer with a "low chaos" for "one highly complex location" with two objectives.


Dishonored 2 is set fifteen years after the first Dishonored, wherein Corvo attempted to restore Emily to the throne after being framed for her mother's assassination. In the time between the games, Dunwall has been "better under Emily" and Emily has been training with Corvo to protect herself from assassins. The Empire is plunged into chaos when Empress Emily Kaldwin is suddenly dethroned by an "otherworldly usurper", and becomes an outlaw to society. Whichever character the player picks is optionally granted powers by the mythical Outsider, and they set out to restore the throne.

Dishonored 2 will be available November 11 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Batman The Telltale Series Release Date Confirmed

Batman The Telltale Series Release Date Confirmed

A New Adventure

By Alex Burns

Telltale Games have confiremd the release dates for their highly anticipated Batman adaptation! Batman The Telltale series will follow the game developer's trademark episodic format and will debut the first episode in August on consoles, PC/Mac, and iOS or Android devices. In a more innovative step the Batman series will be made available to purchase at retailers starting September 13th in North America as a special Season Pass Disc. This dis will include the first episode with access to the next four as they become available for download via online updates. The release date is on September 16th for Europe. Expect Telltale to reveal footage and more information at San Diego Comic-Con next week.

Telltale Games CEO and Co-Founder Kevin Bruner had this to say about the upcoming series: “We’ve been hard at work at Telltale creating an all-new iteration of the iconic Batman story that puts players in the suit of billionaire Bruce Wayne, just as much as it will put them behind the mask, deciding how to carefully navigate a complex drama, rich with action, crime, corruption, and villainy lurking around every corner of Gotham City. The complex life and fractured psyche of Bruce Wayne has lent itself to becoming a bold evolution of the signature ‘Telltale’ role-playing experience, and we couldn’t be more excited as we prepare to debut the series to players across the world this summer.”
