Frans) is the
announcement that ION Storm's third installment in the Thief series begun by
Looking Glass Games is complete for both PC and Xbox, and expected to meet its
planned May 26 in-store date. Here's a bit:
Thief: Deadly Shadows places
you in the role of Master Thief Garrett, the quintessential anti-hero that
steals from the rich and keeps for himself. In Thief: Deadly Shadows, Garrett
finds himself assisting the Keepers, the secret society that trained Garrett in
his youth. He is tasked with preventing a prophesised Dark Age from coming into
fruition. Thief: Deadly Shadows was developed by Ion Storm, creators of the
critically-acclaimed Deus Ex series.
Thief: Deadly Shadows will continue the Ion Storm tradition of open-ended
emergent gameplay the studio is famous for. The freedom to choose a unique play
style is what sets Thief: Deadly Shadows apart from any other game further
immersing the player into the adventure. Thief: Deadly Shadows features a
powerful physics system, startlingly smart AI, enhanced character modelling and
animation, a groundbreaking sound propagation system and state- of-the art
lighting and graphics for which Ion Storm is famous for.
