The studio's new IP showcases gameplay and freedom in typical Arkane fashion, challenging players creatively. Step into the role of Colt, who finds himself trapped in a time loop on the mysterious island of Blackreef, doomed to relive the same day over and over again for eternity. To break the loop, he must gather the necessary information to eliminate eight targets before the clock resets. However, lurking in the shadows is Julianna, a rival assassin with her own powerful abilities and weapons, who is determined to kill Colt time and time again to protect the loop. Those who wish to take on this challenge can also invade another player's DEATHLOOP world as Julianna, making their life difficult in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
