Deathloopis worth checking out
Before the mediocrity that wasRedfall,developer Arkane Studios created a unique FPS calledDeathloop, which revolves around time. LikeGroundhog Day,you’re repeating the same day over and over, but as you explore the game’s world, you’ll find out more about the characters and the environments you inhabit. One plus is that you don’t have to be hounded by Ned Ryerson every day.
You’re also gathering intel on each of your targets while chased down by a (sometimes player-controlled) rival. There’s a lot going on inDeathloop,but it’s an intriguing take on the tired genre.
Deathloopwon multiple Game of the Year awards in 2021 from outlets such as GameSpot and the Critic’s Choice award from Golden Joystick. “Deathloopcombines a classic Arkane stealthy-shooty foundation with a genuinely interesting and fun premise to aplomb,”our reviewsaid.
