The stealth-action game Thick as Thieves comes from some of the creators of the influential Thief game series, but the new title from OtherSide Entertainment and Megabit adds one very important wrinkle to the stealth immersive sim genre: you aren’t the only player trying to steal what you’re after.
Thick as Thieves, which had its first major reveal during The Game Awards today, December 12, is a PvPvE game that takes players to a metropolis in an alt-history version of the early 1900s. The curving cobblestone streets of a North British-style city are lit by neon and subtle magic, with thieves prowling the rooftops and roaming the sewers.
