http://www.wearytaffer.com/bg/art/BG_title.pngThe Broken Goddess is an upcoming 13-mission campaign for the Dark Engine (Thief 2) which will be the next chapter in the adventures of Conall, the semi-retired master thief. Following the events of
Godbreaker, Conall retreats to Bohn, where he was relatively unknown, in the hopes of easing into a comfortable retirement. Eventually, Conall manages to buy a small antiques business dealing in rare books and trinkets, as well as a nice, secure home above it. Rare maps also pass through the store, which Conall gladly adds to his collection. However, eventually, the itch to get out and flex his thieving muscles gets the better of him, and he decides to scratch it by going out on the town to get a better feel for the areas beyond his local neighborhood, with the thought of perhaps even setting his sights on the Bohn Museum at some point for one grand, final heist.

To go ahead and answer it now, no there is no release date; we are still in the early stages of building, and are looking at probably 2-4 years of development. However the story is pretty locked down and we are in the process of filling in details like writing conversations and briefing scripts. We are really excited about it, though, and have a lot of ideas which will push the envelope of the engine. I will post here any time there is a news update posted to the website.

A sequel to Godbreaker, and it's a full campaign? Am I dreaming? :eek::D
We've got a lot to look foward to in the coming years!

Great news really looking forward to this.

Never ever. :D
Finish it, taffers! :mad:

Great news indeed!
Good luck with the works - hope you'll manage to finish it in a reasonable time. And I also hope that Dromed can handle that view of the city on a 2 km long bridge and both sides of the river. New Dark's 20K polygons limit might be a bit tight budget... ;)

Holy fecking dingnuts! Sounds amazing - very grand news :D

This is fan-freakin'-tastic!
A 2-4 year wait will definitely be worth it (as long as you folks don't forget to come back up for air every now and then :))!
