Thief Video Details the Perfect Heist, Showcases Parkour

Eidos Montreal’s development issues with Thief seem like a thing of the past, as the team has released a new video telling you everything you’ve wanted to know about the game. That includes Garrett and why exactly he’s returned to The City, plagued with decay and a ruthless dictator.

This includes the ability to go anywhere en route to your heist. Scaling up buildings and skillfully evading guards are only some of the basic requirements for survival. When the mission goes FUBAR, you’ll be expected to improvise and escape. Luckily you’ll be able to purchase equipment and use weapons like the Smoke Arrow to successfully buy time. The new Focus ability will also help highlight important objects within a room, besides allowing for easier combat against enemies.

Thief will be releasing on February 25th in North America and February 28th in Europe for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4 and PC.
