First announced during the PS5 State of Play, Arkane Studios has just announced that ‘Deathloop’ has been pushed back to 2021:
Originally planned for a Holiday 2020 release in line with the release of the next generation PlayStation 5, Deathloop being delayed into at least summer of 2021 only a few months after its reveal is not surprising considering the current state of the world and just a week following the delay of HALO Infinite into 2021 for the Xbox Series X. It does mean that yet another “Next Generation” title that was scheduled to be ready for the release of the next gen consoles has slipped into next year.
DEATHLOOP is an innovative first person shooter launching for PlayStation 5 and PC from Arkane Lyon, the award-winning studio behind the critically acclaimed Dishonored franchise.
Set on the island of Blackreef which for most of its inhabitants, is a paradise. But for Colt, it’s an inescapable prison. Thanks to a mysterious timeloop, he’s reliving the same day, over and over, trying to find a way to break the endless cycle he’s trapped in. As Colt, you’ll have to take out eight targets – including your arch-nemesis Julianna Blake – if you ever want to escape. But remember: It’s a timeloop, so if at first you don’t succeed… die, die again.
Scheduled for PlayStation 5 and PC, you find more information the game on the official website.
