Every so often a secret comes around that is so poorly kept that when the announcement eventually comes, you just tut and mutter "finally" to yourself. A recent Twitter post from Eidos Montreal stated that Thief 4 is now offically announced.

"THIEF 4 OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED! www.thief4.com and www.eidosmontreal.com."

Whilst the Thief 4 site does currently exist, the only link that currently sits there is one to the Thief 4 forums on the Eidos site.

“We’re in the early development stages for Thief 4, but this is an incredibly ambitious and exciting project for Eidos,” said Stéphane D’Astous, General Manager at Eidos-Montréal. “While it’s too early for us to offer any specific game details, right now we are focused on recruiting the very best talent to join the core team at the studio and help us make what we believe will be one of the most exciting games on the market.”

Hey, we're just happy that the worst kept secret in gaming is finally out and we can look forward to seeing where Eidos Montreal can take the already impressive series.
