The developer team at Arkane Studio and publisher Bethesda has released an all-new trailer for their upcoming Dishonored, showing gamers who might not be familiar with the concept how the game will deal with stealth and force when it comes to murdering shady figures.

Dishonored is a game that tries to mix a steampunk-based world infused with magic and fantasy elements with an open-world approach.

Players will take on the role of Corvus, an assassin who has been unfairly blamed for a crime he did not commit.

Gamers will be able to choose whether to approach a challenge via stealth, moving unseen and striking from the shadows, or whether they will use Corvus’ powerful combat abilities to take the enemy on directly.

The development team has promised a deep story that will explore the background of the game world and the personality of Corvus.

Dishonored will be launched on the PC, the PlayStation 3 from Sony and the Xbox 360 from Microsoft.
