In a pretty big leak of documents that have come from the FTC's court case with Microsoft, it's been revealed that Dishonored 3 is in the works.
]]>Arkane Lyon has announced its first-person shooter Deathloop has passed the 5 million players mark.
]]>There are so many sub-genres of shooter that the best FPS games you can play right now vary wildly based on your preferences. After all, there’s no concrete formula when it comes to developing a first-person shooter: there are multiplayer battle royales, action-adventure shoot ‘em ups, and innovative takes on the genre which blend unique mechanics into the mix.
]]>Deathloop is now, finally, a multiplatform title. After a year of timed exclusivity to the PS5 (a deal infamously struck prior to Microsoft’s acquisition of its studio) it’s now out on Xbox Series S/X, but perhaps more importantly, it’s now available on subscription services – both Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Extra – so it has never been easier or cheaper to experience this underappreciated gem of a game.
]]>If you’re a regular VG247 visitor, you’ll know how much we loved Deathloop when it launched in 2021. In his review, Alex called it Arkane's best game yet – a confident successor to Dishonored, and a bold demonstration of what developer Arkane can do when it’s unshackled from legacy IP (whether or not it has a choice in the matter).
]]>Now that the PlayStation 5 exclusivity period is up, Arkane Lyon’s Deathloop will finally arrive on Xbox Series X/S next week on September 20. It will be available the same day on Xbox Game Pass.
]]>Arkane Austin is preparing a game with scientifically-mutated vampire killers that have taken a whole town hostage – and though marketing so far suggests that Redfall take a team of hunters to properly liberate the besieged town, Bethesda marketing SVP Pete Hines has said that there's still interest in the game for anyone that wants to try it on solo.
]]>An update to Deathloop has been released, and it adds Photo Mode and a number of requested accessibility options.
]]>Despite launching way back in 2020, it was arguably 2023 when the PS5 finally came into its own. It was always a good console, but 2023 was the first year when you could potentially just buy a PS5 without waiting in a digital queue and pouncing like an eBay sniper for even the most legitimate of purchases.
]]>The release of Deathloop isn’t far off, and to get you up to speed on what to expect, Arkane Lyon has released a new trailer that dives deeper into the story.
]]>Do you like immersive sims filled with vampires? Do you like Arkane games like Dishonored and Prey? Then you're going to love Redfall when it lands on Xbox next year.
]]>A number of the studio's titles have recently come to the subscription service.
]]>I’m chatting to Arkane Lyon as the studio celebrates its 20th anniversary in a world that looks much different to that of 2019.
]]>Blink and you'll miss it.
]]>One advantage of being a simpler, more iterative sequel is that developers often get a chance to dial in their engines - and on PC Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a gorgeous looking game with great performance.
]]>One of the things Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus was criticised for was its level design.
