Sounds great, good luck in the development!
Random_Taffer and I are pleased to officially announce a new campaign for Thief 2, and the sequel to Godbreaker:
The 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.
News Update - 4 Mar 2021
- We have expanded the campaign to 14 missions, and there is new concept artwork and the first official screenshots now on the Broken Goddess website!
- We are also seeking to expand the team as we ramp up production, so if you are interested please visit the recruitment post in The Editor's Guild for more info.
News Update - 30 Mar 2021
- There are now new images showing some of the AI and object models our team has been creating, on the Broken Goddess website!
- We have added several new team members in recent weeks, and now have all members listed on the Team page.

A sequel to Godbreaker, and it's a full campaign? Am I dreaming?
We've got a lot to look foward to in the coming years!
Most excellent news, indeed!
Shplendid newsh! This looks awesome.
Great news really looking forward to this.
Never ever.
Finish it, taffers!
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
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 )!
Thish ish very amashing indeed.
FANtastic Good luck and please keep us posted!!
Foiling treacherous plots and preventing catastrophic events!!
Where do I sign up for that?
I should probably get some extra rope arrows....maybe some new boots....blackjack's lookin' a bit ragged...come to think it me sword is soooo last year.
Hey Russ, is this going to be profitable 'cause it's already costing at least a months rent?
Hey I can't wait for this Russ. Hope you guys finish quick as I don't want to wait 4 years for this awesome thief 2 goodness. Is it done yet? lol
Great news! That is really something wonderful to look forward to.
>>an upcoming T2 campaign (7 Oct 2019)
>2-4 years
An incredibly misleading title.
It should be something like "We have started working on the sequel to Godbreaker"
Shame on you!
Thish ish fantashtic newsh!
How do I get the Godbreaker campaign/mission (to catch up on the events)? Also is it part 1 of the story or is there more?
Godbreaker
Enjoy.
Thanks. I guess there's not version 2 (as seems to be hinted in the OP)?
Correct, it was never updated to my knowledge.
An updated version will be released before the campaign comes out to let everyone catch up.
Great to see this finally announced! Looking forward to it!
I rage quit Godbreaker, time to give it another chance
