'Dishonored' encourages player creativity when going for the kill

"Dishonored" encourages player creativity when going for the kill.

Arkane Studios released a new trailer for Dishonored this morning demonstrating some of the more creative ways to slaughter enemies by combining the weaponry and supernatural powers at players' disposal.

The "Creative Kills" trailer below highlights a gruesome death-by-rats – in which players possess a swam to attack and devour their opponents – and bomb-toting vermin, as well as the ability to bend time and place attacks in the path of their own bullets. Players can also reverse the polarity of electric barriers, causing them to vaporize all human flesh that passes between them.

Dishonored is coming to North America on October 9th and Europe October 12th for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. The game will be playable to the public at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany next week.
