December 01, 2004 - Eidos announced yesterday that it will bring its acclaimed Thief: Deadly Shadows PC and console title to wireless BREW and Java platforms next year.

Scheduled for release in two parts, Thief: Deadly Shadows Episode I and Episode II let players once again assume the role of master thief Garret. Gameplay in the wireless adaptation stays true to the original: sneak through the dark alleyways of a medieval town, use stealth to get past guards, and steal precious wares that can make you rich. Weapons include bombs and a variety of projectiles, including fire, water, and noise arrows. As a special feature for handsets with built-in vibration functions, the game will even provide tactile feedback when picking locks.

Thief: Deadly Shadows is being developed by UK studio IOMO. The first episode will be available worldwide in January, followed by the conclusion shortly thereafter.
