Dishonored: Death of the Outsider Reviews
Death of the Outsider is a fantastic addition to the Dishonored universe that once again brings the broken city of Karnaca to life.
Death of the Outsider is a superb way of closing the parenthesis of the Dishonored saga. By giving the player new powers to play with, Arkane forces us to redefine the way we play the series. As usual, each level offers multiple possibilities, but this time the lethal of pacifist approach does not change the world we live in.

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider captures everything that's great about Arkane's assassination series, while also showing that it can still surprise.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is a fun and well-made standalone title that is certainly worth giving a shot. It's certainly one that's best enjoyed if you have played the first two games and simply want to experience more and want to see the series' loose ends tied up in a nice and clean narrative.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is more of perfect Dishonored 2, but with just enough changes to play both games one after the other and not get tired of the formula.

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is a beautiful game that doesn't beat around the bush with story or gameplay design. It opens up the series just a bit and loosens the restrictions on how the game can be played, or rather should be played. While the adventure isn't quite as long as Dishonored 2, it certainly is made fun with non-linear gameplay and additional fun through contracts/challenges.
With this expansion Arkane Studios matched the quality level of the regular installments of the Dishonored series (and that really is something!). All fans of Dishonored 1 & 2 simply have to experience Death of the Outsider. Everyone else should do the same but only after finishing the previous games. It's worth it!

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is another masterful entry in the series that in spite of its relatively slender runtime, is still a good few hours of first-person nirvana. Like Dishonored and its sequel before it, this is utterly essential.
Death of the Outsider is polished, yet largely forgettable when compared to its previous iterations.
A (maybe) fine farewell to the Outsider, and hopefully not to the series.
Dishonored's tried-and-true gameplay returns and serves as a decent vehicle for an interesting narrative that gives the series a sense of finality
A no brainer for fans of the series, and a great way for newcomers to see what all the fuss is about.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is a fitting resolution to a familiar story.
Death of the Outsider's story never lives up to its promise, but strong mechanics, good gameplay, and a fascinating world pull it through.
Whether quietly or in a shower of blood, Death of the Outsider offers a satisfying romp through a complex, living, deep world.
An excellent game that delivers an above average amount of gameplay for its cost, giving you the freedom to utilize an interesting set of powers to track down and kill a god. Beautiful environments and varied objectives more than make up for changes to the Chaos mechanic from previous games in the series.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is a good stand alone adventure that deepens the story of Billie Lurk. It offers roughly three-four hours of gameplay and brand new powers to experiment with.

I don’t want to give away too much and spoil anyone’s fun, but rest assured that Death of the Outsider is a worthy installment in the series. It lightens up on the story consequences from your actions and allows a much more liberated approach to your gameplay in which I found myself gleefully slaughtering guards more than creeping around corners. If you feel like I didn’t touch on the story, it was intentional. The title doesn’t leave much mystery on the main goal of the game and giving away details is not my style – go discover them for yourself.
Not the best entry in the Dishonored series but still a rather enjoyable one.
While Dishonored: Death of the Outsider's core gameplay remains as fun as ever, Arkane's methods to resolve its story are debatable.
