14 DAY TRIAL // The Thief that Eidos Montreal is creating at the moment is a reboot that will establish a new personality for the main character and a new story, but the team also plans to introduce some familiar elements for long term fans of the series.
Stephen Gallagher, the narrative director, says that the entire studio is made up of fans of Garrett in a wider interview with VG247.
He says, “If you are an old player and you played through the first few games, if you dig deep you’ll find things that make you feel at home.”
At the same time, newcomers will be able to instantly connect with Garrett and will not need previous information in order to understand the new plot about the Baron and his plans for the City.
The new Thief will be launched in late February next year on next-gen, current gen-consoles, and the PC.
