A gritty end to the Dishonored franchise, Death of the Outsider places us in the shoes of recurring series character Billie Lurk. Once an assassin that ran with Daud and later a bitter broken woman who tried to make amends for her life by helping Emily reclaim her throne, now Billie finds herself summoned by the Outsider with a final quest: to kill him.

Much like other entries, Death of the Outsider is a stealth game, but it's probably more of a stealth game than the others if that makes sense. Its higher difficulty pushes players to be silent and deadly, and its powers support that. Unfortunately, sometimes that works against this game, and leads to frustrating stretches of game that can be ruined by taking a misstep, and enemies towards the end are especially annoying for this. I'm also left disappointed by the removal of the Chaos system entirely, here justified because Billie's not important enough to the wider Dishonored cosmos, but I fail to see how given her involvement with everything else. The ending is worth the ride, and some of the missions along the way are joyously creative, but it was definitely the least enjoyable Dishonored game.
