Nightdive Studios has presented a new gameplay trailer for the remastered classic — Thief: The Dark Project Remastered. The legendary stealth action game will be released on Switch and Switch 2 consoles this winter.
Return of the 3D Stealth Pioneer
The original 1998 game by Looking Glass Studios sparked a true revolution by introducing light and sound as key gameplay mechanics. Stepping into the shoes of Garrett — a master thief trained by the mysterious order of the Keepers — players must avoid open combat, stick to the shadows, and complete objectives with minimal casualties.
The remaster is being built on the proprietary KEX Engine and includes not only the main campaign of 12 massive missions, but also the full content of the Thief Gold expansion featuring three additional missions and new enemy types.
Key Features of the Update:
- Support for graphics up to 4K resolution and 120 FPS on modern platforms.
- Improved textures, updated 3D models, and smoother animations.
- A convenient radial weapon and equipment selection menu tailored for gamepads.
- Vibration and gyro control support on Switch family consoles.
- Built-in support for custom campaigns, unlocking access to thousands of hours of additional content.
- A special vault with exclusive behind-the-scenes materials about the making of the game.
- The ability to restart any mission via chapter selection.
The remaster's release is scheduled for this winter on both generations of Nintendo's hybrid console.
