The shadows are calling. The legendary Thief franchise returns, reimagined for PlayStation VR2, bringing players back to The City, where danger lurks around every corner and secrets are hidden in plain sight. But this time, you uncover something far greater—an artifact that holds a legacy from the past. Ready your tools, trust your instincts, and become the master thief you’ve always dreamed of. Welcome to Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow, arriving later this year on PlayStation VR2.
Step into the dark and dangerous streets of The City
The City is a place of shadows, ruled by the tyrant Baron Ulysses Northcrest. You are Magpie, a cunning thief orphaned by Northcrest’s brutality and shaped by the streets, who steals as the only means to survive. That is, until you uncover something greater: a legendary artifact holding a legacy from the past. Use immersive VR mechanics to steal, evade, and outsmart the forces controlling The City. Unravel its darkest secrets and expose a sinister conspiracy that looms over its very foundation.
Unleash the thrill of stealth in VR
With PlayStation VR2’s cutting-edge technology, Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow delivers a fully immersive stealth experience. Physically crouch, hide, and move between shadows, using every inch of the environment to stay undetected. Whether you’re sneaking through darkened alleys or scaling the rooftops of towering buildings, your every movement feels real. Extinguish light sources with your water arrows, hands, or even a well-aimed breath to deepen the darkness and expand your cover. The VR mechanics allow you to live out the fantasy of stealth in a way that no other medium can replicate.
Master the Art of Stealing
In Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow, no two heists are alike. Whether it’s lockpicking, breaking into secure chests, or discovering hidden switches behind picture frames, every action in the game feels visceral and tactile. With PlayStation VR2’s Sense controllers and haptic feedback, you can physically interact with your environment in ways that make each mission feel uniquely immersive. Every corner of the city holds treasures and secrets waiting for a skilled thief like you to uncover.
Precision and skill in every move
The VR experience elevates gameplay to new heights, especially when it comes to combat and precision tasks like archery. The combination of intuitive controls, haptic feedback, and realistic aiming makes ranged combat a thrilling challenge. Whether you’re silently disabling a guard from a distance or hitting a precise target, your skill and focus will be put to the test.
Explore a living, breathing world
The City is a detailed, living environment that reacts to your every move. Explore its steampunk-inspired streets, scale its buildings, and feel the tension of navigating the rooftops where you’ll need to use every tool at your disposal to uncover hidden paths and unlock new areas.
A cult classic returns
Brought to you by Vertigo Games, the award-winning creators of Metro Awakening and Arizona Sunshine, in close collaboration with Eidos-Montréal, Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow is currently in development by Maze Theory and marks the long-awaited return of the legendary Thief franchise. Fans of the original series will feel right at home, while newcomers will experience the thrill of stealth and heists in a fresh new light.
