The sequel to the 2012 hit came out late last year and reviewed well at many outlets, including here at Polygon. The game was ranked at number seven in our list of the top 10 games of 2016.
“Two levels in this game,” Polygon wrote in January, “The Clockwork Mansion and A Crack in the Slab, are some of the most memorable and interesting missions I’ve played. In any game. Ever. They’re a masterclass on the underappreciated artform of level design.”
The free trial ends right before “The Clockwork Mansion.” A press release issued by Bethesda today says that progress will carry over after the trial period if you decide to purchase the full game.
Dishonored 2 has been steadily updated since its launch. Perfectionists and completionists alike will be pleased to know that a recent update will allow you to select missions once you’ve completed them.

There's no catch. Simply log into Steam, click the "install" button, and it's yours forever.
Even better, the game's upcoming VR support will be free to anyone who owns Payday 2. So snag the game now and you'll be able to try it in VR at no additional cost.
This offer will expire once 5m people have claimed it or 21st June - whichever comes first.
So why is Overkill doing this? The answer is because it will soon be releasing the Payday 2 Ultimate Edition, which will include all 48 pieces of paid DLC that have been added to the game since its 2013 launch. Until then, all of the game's DLC has been taken off the market.
The exact pricing for the impending Payday 2 Ultimate Edition is still to be determined. It will be $45 to those who are buying it from scratch, but discounts will be available to those who have already purchased some premium content. The exact pricing breakdown will be confirmed when the Ultimate Edition launches in the near future.
Eurogamer contributor Dan Whitehead praised Payday 2 upon its initial launch and the game has only expanded since then.
