Deathloop: long groundhog day or lived, died, repeat.

Electronic Entertaiment Expo 2019 has passed, but not all gaming news leaked to our forum.  One of these inconspicuous games was the project Deathloop from Arkane Studios, about which the forum has a video from the last exhibition, but there is no decent article.

 And so, let’s go.  At the next E3 2019 exhibition, Bethesda Softworks publisher announced a new project, a first-person shooter called Deathloop from the Lyon studio Arkane.  As indicated on the official page of the game, the studio offers a fresh look at the militants with a first-person view.

The game takes place on the mysterious island of Blackreef, on which lawlessness reigns.  The main character must take part in the fight of two killers with incredible abilities.  In Deathloop acts peculiar “groundhog day”.  In an endless series of events, two murderers, with different motivations, are set up so that they do not kill each other.

 At E3, game director Dinga Bakaba and art director Sebastien Mitton said that the new project should be innovative, stylish, and also different from what the studio had previously released.  In the cinematic trailer were presented two main characters, Julian and Colt.  Killers have different goals and motivations, so Julian wants to protect an endless cycle, while Colt wants to interrupt him.

In Deathloop presented a rich arsenal of weapons ranging from cold and ending with sniper rifles.  In addition, the developers decided to adopt some things from the past successful project Dishonored, in connection with which the use of supernatural forces such as telekinesis and teleport was introduced into the game.  I hope that these opportunities will also be available to the main character, if only the developers do not forget to show and explain for what “great achievements” he will receive them.

In addition to the deadly confrontation between the two killers in the game are members of some order in masks, who periodically attack these killers.

 According to the developers, the gameplay of the game allows the player to tackle various situations from different angles, which in turn is a legacy of Dishonored.  In a press release of the project it is reported that the player will have the opportunity to study the "stunning environment and atmospheric levels."  Also, the game director reported that the story of the game will be sustained in a psychedelic style.  Rumor has it that the game will feature a story company with elements of PvP.

 At the last E3 2019 exhibition, the publisher Bethesda did not report on the exact release date of the new project, nor about the time limits, nor even about the platforms on which this project will be released.  Perhaps, Deathloop will appear after the appearance of a new generation of consoles Playstation 5, Xbox Project Scarlett.
