Eidos resurrects one of the earliest and most fondly remembered stealth franchises as gamers once again take control of the skilled burglar Garrett in Thief. The action takes place in a dystopian metropolis known only as The City, where Victorian and steampunk themes abound, and the wealthy hold parties in their mansions while the destitute masses lay dying in the gutters, riddled with plague. An oppressive leader known as The Baron and the jackbooted thugs of his Baron's Watch violently suppress any dissent, but a man named Orion is helping to foment a citizen's revolt.

Garrett is a simple thief, albeit one with spectacular skills, but he soon finds himself in the middle of a potential revolution, and gamers must help him use his superior abilities to prevent The City from destroying itself. Though armed with a bow and a blackjack to knock out unsuspecting foes, Garrett is not an especially skilled fighter, and players are generally much better off choosing a path of pure stealth as they pickpocket citizens and make their way through back alleys, across rooftops, and into well-guarded homes. There are multiple paths to reach each target area, and gamers can use a variety of arrows, a claw for grappling, or Garrett's special Focus ability to enhance his vision, highlight key areas, and slow time.
