Legendary designer Warren Spector’s new stealth project, Thick as Thieves, will launch on 20 May 2024 with a retail price that undercuts expectations for a high-profile indie revival. OtherSide Entertainment confirmed the title’s pricing alongside final release details, revealing a cost that amounts to less than the price of a typical coffee in the UK.

The game marks a clear design pivot for Spector and the studio, eschewing PvP in favour of single-player and cooperative stealth play. Thick as Thieves places emphasis on sneaking, planning and collaboration, with the campaign designed to be tackled alone or with a partner rather than in competitive multiplayer.

OtherSide has confirmed the game will release across PC and current-generation consoles, including PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-order pages and storefront listings are now live on digital platforms, and physical retail options are expected at UK outlets such as GAME and Amazon UK closer to launch.

The modest price point is notable given the pedigree behind the project. Spector, best known for work on influential stealth classics, has positioned Thick as Thieves as an accessible entry for players interested in methodical, stealth-first gameplay without the financial barrier often associated with new studio-led IPs.

Retailers and digital stores carrying the title will confirm final regional pricing and any launch promotions in the run-up to 20 May. The low headline price is likely to sharpen attention on OtherSide’s direction for the series and broader plans for future content.

Thick as Thieves is set to arrive on 20 May 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Additional details, including full system requirements and precise regional pricing, are available on the game’s official storefront listings and announcements from OtherSide Entertainment.
