Late last year, Arkane Studios and Bethesda released the first DLC for the well-received stealth/action game Dishonored. Titled Dunwall City Trials, the game challenged players with tailored skill runs, but disappointed some fans who missed the unique story and world-building seen in the game proper.
In April, those fans got exactly what they asked for. The Knife of Dunwall provided Dishonored fans with a new protagonist, new powers, new areas of the city of Dunwall, and a new story to experience.
Today, Bethesda has announced the final DLC for Dishonored, The Brigmore Witches. The DLC will be available on August 13 for $10, 800 Microsoft Points, or the appropriate equivalent. Players who bought The Knife of Dunwall will be able to carry over their save into the new content, including upgrades, powers, and weapons.
The content will continue the story of Daud, the main character from The Knife of Dunwall. From Bethesda’s blog announcement [Warning: contains spoilers for both The Knife of Dunwall and Dishonored]:
In The Brigmore Witches, continue your journey as the legendary assassin, Daud, and bring his twisted narrative that began with The Knife of Dunwall to a close. After discovering the identity and intentions of Delilah, the leader of the Brigmore Witch coven, you set out to disrupt her from completing a powerful ritual that will spell your doom. Having already been betrayed by your lieutenant, Billie Lurk, you must rely on feuding gang factions—the Dead Eels and the Hatters—to negotiate your way through previously unseen districts of Dunwall en route to Delilah’s stronghold. Regardless of the way you reach your destination, one thing is for certain – you will finally answer for your treacherous actions and fall before the mercy, or punishment, of the Royal Bodyguard and Assassin, Corvo Attano.
