Skulle du frygte at det næste Thief-spil tager action-ruten, som så mange andre nyere spil har gjort, så kan du roligt snige dig veltilfreds tilbage i skyggerne.
I et blogindlæg forklarer studiets Adam Badke nemlig, at spillet eksempelvis kan gennemføres helt uden at slå nogen ihjel. Thief 4 byder med andre ord på masser af snigeri til dem, der foretrækker det.
"Players will have multiple ways to approach their objectives and each objective can be reached using Garrett's various tools, by exploring and by playing with your environment."
Each path comes with a set of challenges, encounters and looting opportunities. Difficulty options allow the experience to be scaled for hardcore fans of the original series, but to also let newcomers have a lot of fun. And yes, you can complete the game without killing anybody - Garrett is a Master Thief, not a killing machine!"
