First Thief trailer confirms new voice actor for Garrett

In development for PC, PS4 and "other next-gen consoles".

Square Enix has released the first trailer for its new Thief game.

It video confirms that developer Eidos Montreal has drafted in a new voice actor to play series star Garrett, with previous voice actor Stephen Russell ditched.

Square Enix's official blurb for the game says it's coming out for PC, PlayStation 4 and "other next-generation consoles". That'll be the next Xbox then.

"There is a rising tide of fear in The City," the blurb continues. "Hatred saturates every stone and whilst the rich prosper, the less fortunate face misery and repression. Ravaged with sickness and famine, they wait for something to change.

"Into this shadowy world steps Garrett the Master Thief in a first-person adventure featuring intelligent design that allows players to take full control, with freedom to choose how they approach and overcome each challenge and forge their own path through the game."
