The Lamplighters League preview: XCOM and Indiana Jones together at last

A mysterious package, a shady assassin, and a man known only as “L”. These are the mysteries that will pull you into The Lamplighters League before the opening cutscene is finished. Set in 1932, we’re promised a thrilling ride with our protagonists: blonde femme fatale, Ingrid, and Gentleman Djinn, Lateef – at least, that’s what he calls himself.

Gameplay is made up of two phases, stealth and combat. Stealth is a real-time mode in which you control the two characters through an area – be they high rooftops or city streets. Your goal here is to remain hidden for as long as possible. You can switch to combat to perform silent takedowns and clever tricks to keep yourself hidden, switching back into stealth seamlessly – as long as you didn’t get caught.
