Dive into the rich history of Dishonored 2! Part 97 of our guide covers the Timeline, from the creation of the Outsider to key events in the Empire of the Isles.

Alright, let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the Dishonored universe with Part 97 of our guide. This time, we're looking at the Timeline. It's a big one, covering everything from the very creation of the Outsider to major historical events that shaped the world you're playing in. Think of it as the ultimate lore dump, so you can really understand the context of Corvo Attano's or Emily Kaldwin's adventures. This timeline lists all known events in the _Dishonored_ franchise "Dishonored (Franchise)"), dated using the [modern calendar](https://dishonored.fandom.com/wiki/Calendar "Calendar") of the [Isles](https://dishonored.fandom.com/wiki/Isles "Isles"). Just a heads-up, it won't detail every choice you make or every possible ending, only what's considered canon in the latest games.
