Pursue infamy as a lone cat-burglar on the prowl for others wealth, and continued freedom.
Each step you take brings you closer to your prize, but also within inches of capture.
An open-ended approach for your style of play - A stealthy rogue, rewarded for treading softly and planning a route unseen through shadowy corridors; a cunning wielder of subterfuge who discretely sets traps to cause misery and distraction - or a hit-and-run professional whose success lies in causing chaos.

  • Customizable loadout of 3 non-lethal gadgets.
  • Multiple ways to complete each main objective
