E3 2015
Dishonored 2 gets a new setting and a female protagonist

announced Dishonored 2. The gorgeous, steampunk styling remains, but this time the trailer features a female protagonist.  Players can choose to be  Corvo Attano or Emily Kaldwin. Each assassin has their own set of powers, skills and weapons, changing your playing style accordingly.

From the trailer, it’s fair to assume that Emily is the default player character. She was the heir to the throne in the first game and Dishonored 2 takes place 15 years after the demise of the Lord Regent. The rat plague is no more, but Emily’s throne has been taken from her. So it’s time to leave Dunwall and hit the coastal city of Karnaca to help Emily reclaim what is rightfully hers.

Enough of this chit chat, check out the E3 trailer:

Chella hails from the UK and joined Gameindustry.com around the year 2000. It was so many moons ago, she can't quite remember. Back then, the only women you saw in the games industry were in bikinis and vertiginous heels at trade shows - oh how times have changed, kind of. Chella started as a humble reviewer, but soon became our European Correspondent and keeps us on top of industry happenings across the Pond. She tends to like the weird Japanese games we've never heard of, so that's good for making us look all-encompassing and stuff. Chella does like games, so don't be fooled by the copious amount of columns devoted to bemoaning the lack of variety in the industry. When she's not surfing (the sea, not the internet) or camping up mountains, Chella likes a good action RPG (especially if it's sci-fi), anything with a good narrative and like we said, the weirder the better. She's also a regular in the GiN Lounge, but that's just because we like her accent.
