New Dishonored Maps Challenging Gamers in December

The first story-based downloadable content for Dishonored will focus on supernatural assassin Daud.

If you've already completed your adventure in Dunwall, fear not: more content for Dishonored is on the way. Bethesda has announced that Dunwall City Trials, a collection of ten challenge maps, will be available in December for $4.99. The maps "will test and track your combat, stealth and mobility skills," with challenges like fighting waves of enemies in a battle arena, having to perform a series of drop assassinations, and racing against the clock to complete your objectives.

Two more DLC packs are coming to Dishonored in 2013, and both of them will be story-based. The second pack will focus on Daud, the leader of The Whalers, a group of supernatural assassins. Playing as Daud will allow you to "make your way through new Dunwall locales and discover Daud's own set of weapons, powers and gadgets." Like in the main game, the choices you make as Daud will affect the outcome of his story. It will be out early next spring.

No details were given for the third set of downloadable content, with Bethesda promising more information next year. Prices for the DLC story missions will be revealed closer to launch.

The story missions playing Daud sound interesting, hopefully they will be quite long missions and show off some more locations as I really would like to see more of Dunwall.

Dishonored did make the player rather overpowered. Cutting-edge technology and equipment, the favour of a SHADOW GOD, it's a good thing that they try to make it a bit more challenging (though I've always had a grudge towards time-constraints).

Daud was certainly an intriguing character from what little I got to know about him. I couldn't dislike him because he murdered a character I had only gotten to know for five seconds.

What is it with everyone refusing to establish things with a First Act? Helping the player understand the setting more might actually help them, well, care!

DLC showing Daud's side of the story? Sign me up? Well, I would like it to be Daud's side of the story, rather than just what Daud is doing the whole time Corvo is off being an assassin. Possibly both? But I'd love to see more of Daud's side of the coin. Challenge maps interest me not, I want the story dlc. :{

Sold. Thank you and goodbye.

This game truly impressed me, while not perfect. I'm willing to support the devs by grabbing some DLC.

 

[Metalrocks]

sounds good. still have to finish it but i think i will be done before they come out.

I'm not a big fan of Daud...I killed his face off after we fought.

This game is called Dishonored because it turned me into a quick save/load whore.

This looks pretty good. 10 mission sounds like a good length, and $5 is a reasonable price. And the missions playing as Daud sound really intriguing. I'm glad that they're keeping more content coming, I really did enjoy the gameplay and the world of Dishonored.
