"Embrace the shadows as the master goblin assassin."

概要
Return as Styx, the sarcastic goblin assassin, in this stealth adventure sequel. Infiltrate the immense city of Körangar, master complex vertical environments, and utilize a deadly arsenal of amber-powered magic and crafted tools to steal a diplomat's scepter.
ストーリー
Hired by the shadowy Helledryn, Styx must infiltrate a diplomatic summit to steal an ambassador's scepter from a shape-shifting Elf. Driven by his addiction to magical Amber and the allure of quartz, Styx uncovers a conspiracy that threatens his kind, forcing him to navigate a web of intrigue aboard immense airships and through heavily guarded fortresses.
Gameplay
Pure stealth is the focus; direct combat is lethal and discouraged. Players must utilize verticality—swinging from ropes and climbing walls—to traverse massive open levels. Success relies on sound management, using environmental cover, and deciding between lethal assassinations or non-lethal subversion using gadgets and cloning abilities.
