Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
Take on the role of Billie Lurk (aka Megan Foster), once one of Dunwall's most notorious killers-for-hire. Reunited with your old mentor, the legendary assassin Daud, you undertake the greatest assassination ever conceived: killing the Outsider, a god-like figure whom Billie and Daud see as instrumental to some of the Empire's most dishonorable moments. As you venture deep into the grimiest corners of Karnaca to uncover the mystery of the Outsider and his origins, you will face deadly opposition, ancient powers, and difficult decisions that will forever change the world around you. Stay in the shadows or step into the daylight to take on all foes – the choice is yours. Equipped with a unique set of supernatural abilities, gadgets, and weapons, you can approach each situation in your own way. Use your abilities and skills to sneak through environments unseen or brutally eliminate all opposition in your way.

You can chat with rats.
Edit: After talking to every rats encountered on map, the rats sound annoyingly horny.

The playing time is relatively short, the areas are structured more like a sandbox and you have around 5 levels with tasks, as well as the option of how to complete the mission (example: bring a target person to person A or B, your choice), which brings a bit of variety.
Due to the lack of a long-winded story, it suddenly plays like a quick Hitman level, i.e. spawn, kill the target person and disappear again, either stealth or full action. You can like it.

It’s a great game and (for the moment) finale to the dishonored franchise. A few quibbles: Rosario Dawson definitely phoned it in with voice work. I have not heard a less compelling performance from an otherwise great actress, but I guess it goes to show you that Voice acting is an art unto its own. Second, I don’t like that dishonored 2 did away with the mystique of the outsider by explaining to us that he ascended into his power by being sacrificed by a cult, but I found the way this story incorporated the new lore to be really unique and compelling. Over all, I can recommend it

The story may not be nearly as good as 1 or 2
The game may be exceptionally short
but it gets the one thing right that plagued the other two. Combat, the combat in this game is easily the best in the franchise, coupled with the continued impressive stealth mechanics, this game is good, but very short.

If you want more Dishonored after playing 2, you should definitely play this. Unfortunately the story is pretty straightforward and it is a shorter game, but the satisfying gameplay makes up for it.

❌❌❌ If you have integrated graphics in your desktop PC, the game won't even start. You have to completely uninstall it and disable integrated graphics in order to play it. The same thing happens with Dishonored 2 as well and this can be a game breaking problem if you are not aware of this.

A solid spin-off DLC that introduces several interesting gameplay abilities to the mechanics of the second game, along with a new standalone storyline. It delves into the conclusion of Daud, the Outsider, and Billie Lurk, and seemingly, unfortunately, the Dishonored series as a whole.
Many fans may have mixed feelings about how the Outsider, as the central figure of this expansion, and his lore were presented. However, I believe the developers did a good job of clarifying many questions about the Void and its Prisoner. The finale ties these explanations together in a logical way. Whether you like this approach or not is debatable, but it was executed competently, and I personally was satisfied.
What’s saddening is that it’s already been eight years, and it seems unlikely that we’ll see a new installment in this series. And recent news about Arkane Studios doesn't add a lot of optimism too. Still, this DLC is both good and, most importantly, engaging. 9.0/10.

The Dishonored franchise is characterized by stealth, action-adventure games, with a captivating story from start to finish and quite interesting gameplay and game mechanics.
This game in particular is quite short, however it is a coherent and adequate complement to understand a little more of the story from another perspective and a perfect excuse to continue enjoying this wonderful game.
If there is something that I have always liked about this franchise is that it allows players to choose between different approaches to complete missions, either using stealth or direct combat.
