Thief Chapter Replay locations guide

Having to replay chapters in Thief can be a little tricky, as there’s no option to just select whichever chapter you want to retry from a menu. To give them another go, you have to make your way to where you originally started the mission and enter it from there. This can be a little confusing as they aren’t marked on your map and when you want to replay them, remembering where exactly the start location was in this convoluted layout can be a bit much. So, for replaying each chapter and client job, we've put this guide together to show you exactly where you need to go.

In Baron’s Way North, make your way to the west side after entering it and you can find the chapter start at the large gate to the right of the Leatherwood Furniture store.

Chapter 6: A Man Apart
Head north past the Watch Station Plaza and you will come to a gate at the end beside the fishmonger. At this gate is where you will find the chapter start.

Chapter 7: The Hidden City and Chapter 8: Dawn’s Light
Both of these chapters can be accessed at the same spot. When you enter Mudder’s Row from Clock Tower Plaza, go through the crates and then follow the street to the left. Go all the way to the end of the flaming street and at the gate there will be two chapter start points.
