What is Dishonored: Death of the Outsider about?

Acting as a sequel to the events of Dishonored 2, Death of the Outsider features a brand new protagonist with the same exciting first-person stealth gameplay.

Players control Billie Lurk, mentor of Daud, the antagonist of the first game. After freeing him from imprisonment, the duo conspire to take down the Outsider, a powerful supernatural entity that is responsible for the magical powers that players use throughout the game.

As an immersive simulator, players will explore sandbox areas set in a magic-infused steampunk setting. With the level design being the key star of the show, they will stealthily teleport between rooftops and perform gruesome assasinations on contracts and targets.
