Description

In Dishonored 2, each playthrough is unique. With 2 different sets of skills, a rich and varied world, and a dizzying variety of level designs that affect your approach to each different location, developer Arkane has decided to double down on the original's play-your-way concept. Whether you take the stealthy or bloody route, known as Low or High Chaos, each of your playthroughs adds to the multiple numbers of stories that may be told in this beautifully twisted world.

Dishonored 2 is a 2016 action-adventure video game published by Bethesda Softworks and developed by Arkane Studios. It's the sequel to Dishonored, which came out in 2012, after the witch, Delilah Copperspoon, deposes Empress Emily Kaldwin.

Dishonored 2 features stealth features. After playing as Empress Emily Kaldwin in the prologue, you can choose between playing as Emily or Corvo Attano, the protagonist from the first game. You have the option of playing stealthily or not, and you can complete the game without killing a person.

As they seek to regain the throne, you either play as Emily or her Royal Protector and father, Corvo Attano. Emily and Corvo both have their own set of supernatural skills, though you can choose to ignore them entirely and play with no superpowers.

Emily has her own set of skills, while Corvo's skills from the previous game have been enhanced and expanded. The game has various upgrade routes for its capabilities, but it also has a mode where you can play without any supernatural abilities. There is a lethal and non-lethal upgrading routes for these abilities.

Alternative assassination strategies, non-lethal approaches, and routes to explore the main mission are unlocked through side missions. Each character has upgradable weapons such as a pistol, crossbow, blade, grenades, and mines. Mana elixirs replenish mana, whereas health elixirs and food consumables regenerate health.

Several gameplay features from the first Dishonored are retained in Dishonored 2. By combining realistic first-person action, assassination, stealth, mobility, and the game's combat system, you may create your own gameplay.

Dishonored 2 follows the same narrative format as its predecessor, in which you must complete a series of tasks while using a combination of powers and weapons. There are a variety of ways to finish objectives, ranging from non-lethal stealth to intentional violent fighting, thanks to the game's nonlinear design.

In Dishonored 2, every level has its own theme, and you can seek safety on the Dreadful Wale, a ship where you are able to recover and enhance their equipment in between levels.

Upgrades can be acquired in black market shops placed across the levels, and blueprints spread about the world can be used to access new upgrades. These enhancements can be purchased using coins, which can be collected throughout the game or obtained through other collectibles such as stealing paintings.

Enemy detection is based on line-of-sight, thus you can hide under cover or in high areas out of the enemies' cones of vision. Although darkness can help you hide, it is only useful at a distance. If you've been spotted, enemy alert meters and musical cues will alert you.

You may choke or slit enemies' throats to avoid detection. It is possible to carry and hide bodies. Alarms can be turned off to prevent enemies from becoming aware of your presence.

Noise, such as that generated by smashed bottles or striking your sword against a wall, can lead enemies to investigate; this can be used to draw guards into traps or interrupt their patrol route.

How to play

Dishonored 2 takes place 15 years after the events of the first game.

The Rat Plague has been cured for a long time, but new issues have appeared in Dunwall. Emily Kaldwin, the ruling Empress of the Empire of the Isles, has had a bunch of political opponents murdered by an anonymous serial killer known as The Crown Killer, threatening her control.

Luca Abele, Duke of Serkonos, and Delilah Copperspoon, who claims bloodline to the throne, organize a revolution against her. The mysterious person known as The Outsider reappears, offering his Mark, which the player may decline if he so chooses.

The protagonist must journey around Karnaca, which is afflicted by dust generated by over mining of silver ore and infested by huge parasitic insects known as bloodflies. To put down the revolution, key figures will have to be eliminated, and alliances may need to be established, all while considering how much blood will be shed in order to regain the throne.

The time of each mission is decided by the difficulty and your play style. If you want to achieve an undetectable stealth rate or gather all collectibles, runes, and bone charms, expect to spend more time on each mission.

The missions of Dishonored 2 are listed below.

1.A Long Day In Dunwall

2.Edge of the World

3.The Good Doctor

4.The Clockwork Mansion

5.The Royal Conservatory

6.Dust District

7.A Crack in the Slab

8.The Grand Palace

9.Death to the Empress

Dishonored 2 has multiple endings that are determined by the chaos level as well as the decisions made at certain stages throughout the game, similar to the original Dishonored. 

Dishonored 2 is an action game for people who want to think and be creative. It aims to encourage you to plan ahead, think about the scenario, and come up with creative solutions when things go wrong.

If you want to survive in Karnaca, whether you're playing as Emily or Corvo, you'll have to play it smart. And if you get stuck, perhaps these helpful tips will come in handy.

Remain undetected

Stay hidden behind enemies or cover, lean in to check what the guards are up to, and then move swiftly and quickly.  If you prefer a sneaky playing style, take advantage of these. Also, keep in mind that enemies can be distracted. Throw a bottle or set an alarm clock, then walk away while your attention is diverted.

Pay attention to your heart.

Dig out the Heart whenever you get a chance. It will not only tell you where to locate Runes and Bonecharms, but it will also provide you with more details about places and people.

Keep the bodies hidden.

Unless you're aiming for high chaos, keep bodies hidden or dispose of them as soon as possible. That way, no additional guards will be alerted, and you'll have an easier time.

Parry and counter attacks

Keep in mind to block if you can't escape combat. When the enemy is caught off guard after parrying their attacks, perform counter attacks to perform a finisher. You may also use the slide and thrust maneuver to your advantage.

Don't forget to use your gadgets

It's tempting to depend solely on your sword and void abilities, but mines, grenades, your crossbow and handgun can help you get out of a lot of tight spots, especially when you need to dispatch a large group of opponents quickly.

There isn’t one way around

There will always be more than one approach to reach a target, so if getting past a group of guards is proving tough, see if there's another option. Side alleyways and back doors can be investigated, and your powers can be used to find a new path ahead. Balconies and rooftops are also fantastic options, and getting into a room from the top is sometimes the greatest option. Look around if you can't see a route forward.
