Thief Review

Platforms: PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC
Release Date: February 25, 2014

Despite being in the same franchise that arguably birthed the stealth genre back in 1998, this new reboot of Thief has no idea how to stay relevant.

Stealth games have seen many advancements over the years from games like Dishonored and Hitman: Absolution. The forward progress in hardware and design have also been key factors into making a golden handful of sneaking-based games that have been standouts in their years of release. Thief‘s new reboot, simply titled Thief, looks as though it wants to take back the spotlight it has relinquished in the past decade or so. Despite being a game about thievery, Thief can’t even steal the best aspects from its newfound competition.
