The World Of Dishonored

Feature

Dishonored tells the story of one man's quest for revenge in an otherworldly industrialized city. While touch-points recall elements of our real world, Dishonored is actually set in a startling and dangerous land quite different from our own.

Though the game is primarily set within the boundaries of a single city, the folks at Arkane Studios feel that there needs to be a depth and authenticity to the game world that can only be provided by creating a complete fiction beyond the borders of that city.

Our interactive map shows the breadth of that vision, detailing elements of the surrounding world from geography and science to religion and industry. Click on the image below to begin your exploration.

I am very interested in this game could be very cool when it comes out

This map is already hinting at a variety of moral conflicts in the world. Can't wait to hear more. Poor whales.

Every story about this game is making it sound better and better.

Just when I thought this game couldn't peak my interests any higher..

This game looks very interesting.

Big plus! Im a sucker for fantasy maps.
by batchick21 Friday, July 15, 2011 at 06:45 PM

I like the 13 months inside of 28 days, with that Batman: Arkham City would have come out in May, lol! This world sounds really awesome and I can't wait to hear more about the game.
by Sam7point0 Friday, July 15, 2011 at 06:45 PM

Bethesda = awesome! I am really looking forward to this!

I love how the GI magazine almost always has a great cover story right after E3. This game has most definitely been skyrocketing up my game radar.

Part of the reason I love games like Dragon Age and the Elder Scrolls is that they feature believable worlds with history and deep lore. Dishonored looks no different, and I have to say, I'm intrigued.

If this becomes a series of games I can see one or two of them taking place on the larger continent.

How many developers care about their game universes enough to create a whole world beyond the setting, Arkane has me sold.
by AkemimekA Friday, July 15, 2011 at 06:59 PM

Soooo gonna get this game when it comes out. I'm excited to see what's in store!
by Parsonious Maximus Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:05 PM

i get the feeling that i just found the key to future single player DLC's for games with deep singleplayer gameplay like this one and ACR/Skyrim/Rage
by GAMERISAY Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:33 PM

Looks like oblivion map.
by GreendaleAlum Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:45 PM

lol the Fugue Feast sounds fun.
by Osko12345 Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:51 PM

Looks just like the Oblivion map.
by XelaSalog Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:52 PM

Just let us be effective! I want to be able to kill enemies whilst I sneak about, no three shots/stabs to kill a guy. I want to sneak up behind some poor shlub and slit his throat-killing him instantly
by KangalAnatolia Friday, July 15, 2011 at 07:54 PM

it's a rip-off of The Elder Scrolls map.
