Dishonored to get Game of the Year Edition

Bundle details and release date unconfirmed; Australian version listed as "modified".

Dishonored appears set to receive a Game of the Year Edition, according to a listing by rating body, the Australian Classification Board.

No Caption Provided

The GOTY version will presumably bundle the original stealth/action game with all previously released downloadable content: Dunwall City Trials and its 10 challenge maps; The Knife of Dunwall, which allowed players to take on the role of assassin Duad; upcoming expansion The Brigmore Witches, which is scheduled to release in mid August; and the Void Walker’s Arsenal, a collection of retailer pre-order bonuses.

No release date was confirmed in the report, though while Dishonored was rated as "original", the Australian Game of the Year version is currently marked as "modified", often denoting changes or edits made specifically for the region. The bundle has been rated MA15+ for moderate impact themes, language and sex, and strong impact violence. A spokesperson for Bethesda, the game's publisher, was unavailable to comment as to what, if any, changes have been made to the local version of the game.

In November last year, Bethesda confirmed that sales for the game were "far exceeding" expectations, making future games in the franchise likely.

Cool, but does anyone else ever think it's funny that there are multiple "game of the years" that come out every year? when I opened this news article, I asked myself "wait, who did it win game of the year from?"

@brande77 @thefinalzapkeet At least Dishonored is Game of The Year quality (and won certain awards in many sites end of year awards, which is close enough), anybody remember Dead Islands GOTY Edition? What a joke.

this game amazed me in terms of gameplay, i played 2 times, one being good and getting the good ending and another killing everything, it's like a completely different game.

but i already got the game and 2 dlc's for around $15, so i'm set.

Well that is good news. I bought the original game for my 360 but barely played it before something else stole my attention. With a GotY edition on the way, I'll keep an eye out for it on Steam and maybe I'll actually play it through this time around.

Which country is worse when it comes to video game censorship? Australia or Germany?

@valensim @HartPuncher Both great. Hitman, XCom, Sleeping Dogs, NBA 2k13 (even if you don't like basketball, it fucking outstanding), Halo 4 was good, COD Black Ops was aight... Journey... Not a bad year.
