In a press release this morning, we announced that Dishonored, the supernatural assassin action game under development at Arkane Studios, will be available for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Games for Windows in North America on October 9th, 2012 and throughout Europe on October 12th, 2012.
In the Flickr slideshow below, check out high resolution packaging for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

I’m going to buy it on PC! 😀
And what about Steam? ;_;
Wow! Bethesda doing a headline about a game and using a PS3 box art cover for the image!?!? I thought you usually try to screw us PS3 fans over with your lack of support for your PS3 fans.
Besides that though, I might pick up the game. Need to see more solid gameplay though before I decide.
What’s up with releasing games later in Europe, what did we ever do to you?! huh?!
Simple, two launches means two parties for Bethesda staff. 🙂
Can’t wait though! Exciting times!!
Games are released on Tuesdays in America and on Fridays in Europe. It’s that simple.
That’s pretty standard with most of our titles. In Europe, games typically release on Friday (and Thursday in Australia).
Skyrim was an exception because it had a worldwide Friday date.
Mac OS, maybe ?
Seriously, what’s up with those stupid subtitles for German versions of media D: ? I see that nonsense being done frequently with everything released here, be it books, movies or games. The marketer who came up with that really deserves to be punched in the balls (resp. ovaries).
euuuugh did you guys really have to use GWFL? Please tell me there’s going to be a steam version
It’s not for Games for Windows LIVE, it’s just a game made to run on Windows operating system. Skyrim had the same thing on it, and it was exclusive to Steam.
its not GFWL, it needs to say for live on it with an orange bar
Cannot wait for this game, I just hope it will be polished and without bugs. If more time is necessary, please give it that, instead of releasing it prematurely.
Also, is the PC version steamworks like Skyrim was? I am glad it is not using GFWL.
Fantastic looking cover reminding me of the Terminator and the 8 Man Out anime movie. Congratulations on the release date on whats looks to be a pre-order purchase.
To put it lightly, i am buying the SHIT out of this on PC.
Good god
Please tell me this isnt just going to be released for GFWL. If it is, I will not be buying it. Why the hell cant devolpers understand that GFWL is a buggy, horrible and harsh DRM. I have lost over $300 games because of accusitions which I did not do, and they never even replyed to my emails.
Preordering, picking up at the midnight release (if available), and taking off work for this!
How about a collector’s edition with a life-sized Corvo’s Mask?
To confirm, it’s not using Games for Windows LIVE. It’s Steamworks.
Oh, thank god. That’s the second time you’ve posted early box art with the GFWL logo on it. Quit toying with my emotions like that.
That’s Games for Windows packaging. While it looks similar to Games for Windows LIVE packaging, it’s not the same.
Take a look at the packaging for Dishonored or Skyrim and compare it with the packaging for Fallout 3. You can see where one says “LIVE” and the other doesn’t.
interesting …
To make sure I got this right: Using Steam is going to be mandatory, right? Or is it optional?
Thanks for the confirmation. I was panicking for a moment =P
Can’t way to see some more gameplay footage of Dishonored. If it continues to look and play as awesome as Arkane are claiming, I’ll be pre-ordering on Steam asap.
Here’s hoping its title gets translated for the UK release.
Dishonoured.
this game looks awesome i can not wait to get it!
The mask looks awesome. I might make it.
DOes it has online mode??
