Thief Modders Wanted by Amazon and Square Enix for New Contest

Amazon and Square Enix Hosting Ultimate Thief Mod Contest

Dedicated Thief fans and talented modders take heed, your skills are needed. Amazon and Square Enix announced a challenging contest today seeking the best of the best and the most imaginative to submit entries into the ultimate Thief mod contest.

According to a press release, the two companies are looking for fans to submit entries in one of two categories; either a short video playthrough of a mod they've created, or a pitch for a mod they would like to create. Winners from each category stand to win a host of prizes, including: 

- A high-end gaming rig from AMD which includes an AMD Radeon R9 290X graphics card
- An all-expenses paid trip to E3 2014 with Square Enix
- Steam code for all Square Enix Games with the matching Prima Guide
- A bundle of game development books on Kindle
- An Amazon Kindle DX

Even if your submission is garbage, there's reason enough to enter, as every entrant to the competition will also receive a free digital version of Thief: Gold from Amazon. If knowledge on modding isn't your forte, then make sure you visit TheDarkMod.com for a crash course on mod creation. They'll provide you with all the skills you need, as well as all the tools. Once you learn the tricks of the trade, who knows? Maybe you'll even stand a chance at winning 2014's Mod of the Year.

Once submitted, all entries will be voted on by the community, members of the Thief development team, and members of The Dark Mod team. Interested parties have until April 14, 2014 to send in their submissions. The full list of rules, prizes, and legal jargon on how to enter can be found here. Thief releases in full later this month, February 25 in North America, and February 28 overseas, for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC.
