Death of the Outsider is a commendable expansion that delivers an enjoyable stealth-action experience with a well-crafted narrative. However, its decision to be a standalone title rather than a DLC raises questions about its value as a separate purchase. The game offers fresh abilities, a captivating storyline, and some memorable moments, but its brevity, lack of substantial innovation, and missed opportunities in utilizing the setting leave players wanting more. For die-hard Dishonored fans, Death of the Outsider will likely scratch the itch for more stealthy adventures, but for others, it might have been better served as a DLC to enrich the main Dishonored experience.
