"Dishonored 2" is one of the most anticipated titles that are set to come out within the year. Recently, a live action teaser was released for the upcoming game and it showcases the ability of Corvo Attano and Emily Kaldwin while set in a realistic environment.

Based on reports, the promotional video teased the abilities that the assassins are capable of while doing their missions. The battle that was shown in the trailer was set in Karnaca, and the skills that were highlighted were Shadow Walk and Far Reach.

It was mentioned in GameSpot that 'far reach' is a skill that Emily can execute and it allows her to grab opponents from a far distance. The domino ability was also showcased in the live action trailer and this is where Emily can link the fate of her enemies. Once she takes down one person who is linked to another, both opponents will meet the same fate.The  clip was also less bloody or gory compared to the teasers that were previously released for the game.

Furthermore, it did not just showcase the capabilities of the two main protagonists, but it also illustrated how it can be visually enticing in its live version. This also indicates that the franchise shows potential to have its own film adaptation.

The distinct feature of the sequel is that gamers will be able to choose between the two characters. The storyline that will be told to players is the same, but each protagonist has a different experience to offer. The main plot of the upcoming game is that Emily should take back the throne that is rightfully hers. Corvo will be voiced by Stephen Russell while Erica Luttrell will give life to Emily. 

"Dishonored 2" will be available starting Nov. 11 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
