During the court case between Microsoft and the FTC over the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, a number of documents leaked, revealing a roadmap of upcoming exclusive games, as well as early plans for the next-gen Xbox console. One of the games mentioned was none other than Dishonored 3 and now, rumours are swirling that the game will be announced this week.
As part of the leaked documents gathered as part of the discovery process for court proceedings between Microsoft and the FTC, Microsoft had to hand over sensitive business documents, including early plans for the next Xbox console, and a roadmap for upcoming games on its release schedule. As part of a roadmap for Bethesda, the company has Dishonored 3 planned for FY2024.
Now, leaker and podcaster, Nate the Hate, has claimed that he has heard that Arkane Lyon's next game will be announced at The Game Awards this week. Given that we see Dishonored 3 listed on an official roadmap document, this appears to be the most likely option for a new game announcement.
While the Dishonored games were both very well received, Arkane went in a different direction after Dishonored 2, working on titles like Deathloop and Redfall in an effort to get more acquainted with multiplayer. A return to the studio's best known IP would be welcomed.

KitGuru Says: The Dishonored games are some of my favourite stealth-action games, so I've always got my fingers crossed for a new sequel. Would you like to see Dishonored return?
