"Dishonored 2" by publisher Bethesda Softworks will bring in star power from "Game Of Thrones," "The Wire" and "Fallout 4." Bethesda will continue the legacy of "Star Wars" star Carrie Fisher, Susan Sarandon and "Game Of Thrones" star Lena Headey from the first "Dishonored."
Bethesda's "Dishonored" was one of last generation's best and most under-appreciated games. A first person stealth-action hybrid, "Dishonored" was praised for its narrative. "Dishonored" also showed strong in its hybrid gameplay.

"Dishonored" took place in the fictional city of Dunwall (inspired by industrial 19th century London and Edinburgh). The plot took "Dishonored" through the story of royal bodyguard Corvo Attano.
"Dishonored" saw Corvo Attano framed for crime he did not commit and thereupon stripped of his title. Events contrived to force Corvo Attano into becoming a rogue assassin, who seeks vengeance on those that dishonored him.
