Megabit Publishing has announced a new PvPvE multiplayer stealth game from Warren Spector, called Thick As Thieves. This is said to be a new take on stealth, in which you get to be the thief you want to be in a living world.
In Thick As Thieves, players will be able to hide, sneak, and steal their way through the ranks as they match their cunning against rival thieves in an immersive living world of stories and shadows.
Players will delve into the city, a world rich in characters, stories, and mystery. They will learn about the powerful, the criminal, and the craven as they break into their strongholds and steal both their gold and their secrets. Moreover, the will explore their own personal storyline, mission by mission, and shape their destiny and journey.
The devs claim that your choices will unlock unique playstyles and strategies that shape your thief character. The game will have a fusion of emergent multiplayer gameplay and dynamic storytelling. In theory, this will allow you to immerse yourself in a living world where no two nights are ever the same, ensuring endless challenges and discoveries. Or at least that’s the devs claim.
Since I’m not a big fan of MP games, this isn’t my cup of tea. In my opinion, it would make more sense to release this as a single-player title, with a tied story. You know, like Dishonored.
Anyway, enjoy the trailer and stay tuned for more!

"PvPvE"
Nope
how the mighty have fallen, instead of making system shock 3 which the trailer looked amazing, they sold the rights to tencent and now they make this redfall looking pvp vpe crap.
My brother in christ if this sold, then thievery for unreal tournament will be as popular as counter strike an dota, instead of that no one has ever heard of it. Go look it up, it was multiplayer thief guards vs thieves and you could play as any side. The bots are guard only though and they suck.
Why a PvPvE?! We expected a solid SP with maybe good MP on top…
For f*cks sake, another spit on Thief's grave!!! 🤦🏻♂️
When the f*ck is this idiot Spector gonna stop beating around the bush and do what he has to actually do?! A Deus Ex 1 remake/sequel with JC Denton, a System Shock 3, maybe a proper Thief 5 instead of this kids sh*t!…
Go ahead and find a publisher that is going to fund a proper immersive sim
Is "thick as thieves" a racist joke towards black folks?
We don't condone that sort of behavior here on this site.
D.O.A
I want thief 5 or deus ex 3 or system shock 3 not this PVPVE sh*t !
People loved Spies vs. Mercs in Splinter Cell, why not?
Abomination.
This game looks exactly the same as every other game that's come out in the past years. Seriously wth is going on with the gaming industry

Ditto, another wasted dev cycle.
This looks and feels HORRIBLE.
I absolutely can't stand how so many recent games seem to target mainly the GenZ, or maybe even the GenA, with that stupid cartoonish look, and those extremely exaggerated and unrealistic moves. God this looks AWFUL… 🤢
And what's with the horrible music, in a STEALTH game?
Not the first time I see this though. I don't know who was in charge of making the trailer, but clearly he knows nothing about what we want.
Speaking of not knowing what we want… A MULTIPLAYER game? Really?
Warren Spector, what happened to you, man? 😰
Thanks God for the Dark Mod community!!!
Now what we need is also some kind of Deus Ex community which creates its own game, like the Dark Mod. And maybe another one for a Splinter Cell-like game?
Then I wouldn't need anything anymore. 😌
