The latest trailer for Dishonoured has been released by Bethesda via Gametrailers.

Giving us a brief glimpse into the game’s storyline the footage also shows off some of its combat.

Dishonoured’s setting looks to be dystopian with the rich bathing in money while the poor live in squalor. There’s even some Nazi-style soldiers and a plague thrown in. We also get sight of a small girl, who we presume is integral to the game based on the emphasis put on her in the trailer. Call me crazy, but she really reminds me of Bioshock’s Little Sisters, just with a few years added on.

In the brief glimpses of combat, the game’s protagonist is shown fighting off people with a knife, crossbow and some interesting powers, including a quick dash move and something that resembles a homing grenade.

The E3 trailers have all started rolling in today. We have already had Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and Pro Evolution Soccer release some impressive looking E3 gameplay footage.

Here’s the official word from Bethesda:

You are the once-trusted bodyguard of the beloved Empress. Framed for her murder, you become an infamous assassin, known only by the disturbing mask that has become your calling card. In a time of uncertainty, when the city is being besieged by plague and ruled by an oppressive government armed with neo-industrial technologies, dark forces conspire to bestow upon you, abilities beyond those of any common man – but at what cost? The truth behind your betrayal is as murky as the waters surrounding the city, and the life you once had is gone forever.
