Eidos Montreal offered further insight into <em>Thief </em>in <a href="http://community.eidosmontreal.com/blogs/Going-Rogue">a blog post</a>, confirming that protagonist Garrett will be able to get through the entire sticky-finger adventure without taking lives.<br /><br />Eidos Montreal's previous offering, <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/game/deus-ex-human-revolution"><em>Deus Ex: Human Revolution</em></a>, also allowed players to make it through the game as a pacifist - save for bosses - a good example considering it too was a modern entry in a franchise that had been dormant for quite some time. <em>Thief </em>is currently slated to launch on PC, PS4 and "other next-gen platforms" in 2014.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: right;"> <em><small>[Art from the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=337665719668084&amp;set=pb.329547117146611.-2207520000.1363659588&amp;type=3&amp;theater">official Thief Facebook</a> page]</small></em></div><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/03/18/yes-you-can-play-through-thief-without-killing-anyone/">Yes, you can play through Thief without killing anyone</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 18 Mar 2013 22:45:00 EST.

The result has the player running around an island in between slower enemy bullets, trying to aim those bullets at other bad guys, all the while collecting gems and power-ups.<br /><br />Sounds fun. There are multiple levels and game modes to unlock as you play the game, which you can open up by collecting more and more gems. <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/rebel"><em>Rebel</em></a> is available right now on any PlayStation Mobile device (including the PS Vita) for $1.99.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/10/13/unique-shooter-rebel-comes-to-playstation-mobile/">Unique shooter 'Rebel' comes to PlayStation Mobile</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Sat, 13 Oct 2012 21:00:00 EST.
