Thief allows for pacifist playthroughs

By Brenna Hillier

Here’s a little blip we missed last week; in the same Eidos Montreal blog post where art director Nicolas Cantin backed off from his “less gothic, more mainstream” comments, the developer confirmed pacifist playthroughs are possible. “Players will have multiple ways to approach their objectives and each objective can be reached using Garrett’s various tools, by exploring and by playing with your environment. And yes, you can complete the game without killing anybody – Garrett is a Master Thief, not a killing machine.” Thief is expected on PC and next-generation platforms in 2014.

Thanks, Siliconera.
