Square Enix today released a new trailer to celebrate Eidos Montreal’s upcoming stealth action game Thief going gold, check out the new trailer for the game embedded above!
The producer of Thief Stephane Roy posted on the PlayStation Blog and talked a little bit about the game:
“Fans of the original Thief will be relieved to find the ingredients that made it one of the most respected franchises in the industry. The game doesn’t take gamers for idiots, it’s far from easy, and you can complete it without killing a single enemy or even being seen. But it is not only designed with long-time fans of the series in mind.
“We respect players. I know it sounds like empty pandering, but we really do take it to heart. We’ve given you a huge amount of options to customize your experience to enable you to play exactly as you prefer. You want the most complete immersion possible? We let you remove any clutter from the screen: the interface, the reticle, any visual indicator that isn’t part of the game world.”
I must say that I am not the biggest fan of stealth games, however that trailer does look quite impressive. I’ll be very interested in seeing some reviews of the game, maybe if the game is accessible enough to people who don’t have the patience for games like this (me) then I’ll give it a go.
Thief releases for the PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC on Feb. 25 in NA and Feb. 28 in Europe.
