Bethesda Softworks have released a new gameplay trailer for Arkane Studios’ Deathloop during the PlayStation State of Play presentation.
As previously reported, the game takes place on the island of Blackreef, an island full of debauchery and chaos. An assassin known as Colt however, is stuck in a timeloop with everyone trying to kill him.
Colt is still trying to reach his target; Aleksis Doresy, the “Alpha Wolf.” Along with Aleksis, Colt must kill eight “Visionaries” in one night, before the loop resets or rival assassin Julianna Blake kills him.
The new gameplay trailer focuses on one of the Visionaries. “Ramblin'” Frank Spicer acts as the island’s DJ, and has more than a few plans to put Colt in a spin, no matter how many times they go around and around. The trailer also features an original song inspired by the game by Sencit, featuring FJØRA, with clear James Bond inspirations.
You can find the Deja Vu trailer below.
You can find the full rundown (via PlayStation) below.
DEATHLOOP is a next-gen first person shooter from Arkane Lyon, the award-winning studio behind Dishonored. In DEATHLOOP, two rival assassins are trapped in a mysterious timeloop on the island of Blackreef, doomed to repeat the same day for eternity. As Colt, the only chance for escape is to end the cycle by assassinating eight key targets before the day resets. Learn from each cycle – try new paths, gather intel, and find new weapons and abilities. Do whatever it takes to break the loop.
The island Of Blackreef – Paradise Or Prison
Arkane is renowned for magnificently artistic worlds with multiple pathways and emergent gameplay. DEATHLOOP will present a stunning, retro-future, 60s-inspired environment, that feels like a character within itself. While Blackreef may be a stylish wonderland, for Colt it is his prison, a world ruled by decadence where death has no meaning, and delinquents party forever while keeping him captive.
Deathloop launches May 21st, 2021 for Windows PC (via Steam), and PlayStation 5.
