Bethesda and Arkane Studios’ stealth-’em-up Dishonored has been a hit with both critics and gamers, and big sales for the game have apparently made its a pretty serious prospect for a sequel. Exactly nobody is surprised, I’m sure. Just like the last time I tried to infiltrate the Golden Cat.
“I can tell you that Dishonored is far exceeding our sales expectations, which is especially cool considering it’s new IP facing a host of well-established franchises this quarter,” a Bethesda rep told Destructoid.
“So, we’re very pleased and appreciate all the fans that have supported Dishonored and Arkane. We clearly have a new franchise.”
In the meantime, Arkane is prepping at least three DLC add-ons for Dishonored, with the first – a series of challenge maps packaged as Dunwall City Trials – due to launch on 11 December. Two campaign expansions have been confirmed for release next year, but not much additional info has been disclosed.
Dishonored has also been nominated in six categories for the annual Spike TV Video Game Awards, including Game of the Year.

Am I the only one that didn’t really enjoy dishonored? It just felt too linear for me. Sure there were many paths to get to the cat, but there were only really 2 ways to kill the cat. The levels were also pretty linear in design.
