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.
]]>Welcome to VG247's Best Games Ever Podcast: Episode 39 - The best game that completely flopped.
]]>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.
]]>The VG247 Best Games Ever Podcast has been going for six months! Can you believe it? The show that was spawned out of a random Slack message has gone from mild strength to ever-so-slightly-less-mild strength. To celebrate this milestone I sat down with host Jim Trinca to berate him about the choices he's made so far.
]]>After some speculation from fans, Deathloop director Dinga Bakaba confirmed that the game is in fact set in the same world as Dishonored.
]]>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.
]]>It appears Arkane's Deathloop is set to release on Xbox consoles rather soon if a pre-order ad popping up on Xbox is any indication.
]]>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.
]]>If you’d asked me the status of my Halo fandom at the start of 2021, I’d have described myself as a ‘lapsed’ Halo fan. Ask me again now, at the end of the year, and I’m like that guy from that old viral video where he’s singing the Halo theme to some random woman in a parking lot. “You’re a monk!” she exclaims. And yes. I am a monk of killing, precise with a Battle Rifle.
]]>The Game Awards 2021 took place yesterday evening, and along with plenty of reveals, news, and trailers, awards were handed out.
]]>If he’s going to break the vicious cycle of Blackreef, Colt Vahn will need to collect Deathloop’s best weapons to complete the job. What's more, there are a few extra-powerful Legendary weapons to collect - each with unique abilities.
]]>After players have been reporting various issues with the PC version of Deathloop, Arkane has stepped in to offer a fix for at least some of the ongoing performance woes.
]]>An update for Deathloop has been released on PC which resolves an achievements issue and includes better descriptions for errors.
]]>Party animal Aleksis is painting Updaam red in more ways than one, with his shindig at Dorsey Manor presenting Colt with as perfect an opportunity as you get in Deathloop.
]]>Blackreef’s second scientist, Egor, might have a smaller lab, but is no less dangerous than any of the other Visionaries, particularly because of his Aether invisibility Slab.
]]>One of the more nuanced Visionaries on Blackreef, musical maestro Frank is the life of the party - known as a bon vivant, raconteur, and prone to lavish displays of luxury.
]]>Dr Wenjie Evans is not just one of the Visionaries holding the cycle of Blackreef together in Deathloop, but a pioneer in the experimental field of Infusion.
]]>The Deathloop Queen of Riddles side quest is one of the trickier and more deceptive parts of the game.
]]>As if Blackreef wasn’t hiding enough secrets, you might have noticed the mysterious HRZN doors dotted around the map and the RAK door in Updaam.
]]>Arty, armed, and dangerous, Fia is not only one of Deathloop’s most powerful Visionaries, but her quest, Afternoon Delight, can be one of the toughest too.
]]>Taking on Charlie in Condition Detachment is a pivotal point in your time with Deathloop. Not only do you begin to unravel some key threads in the underlying mystery of Blackreef, but you get guaranteed access to easily the most powerful Slab: Shift.
]]>It appears some Deathloop players are experiencing issues with the game on PC.
]]>Spread across 4 maps over 4 times of day and filled with complex puzzles and quests, there’s no shame in using a Deathloop guide to walk through the game’s more intricate and confusing sections.
]]>At the top of your list, staging a ‘special seminar’ in the morning from a hangar in Karl’s Bay, is Harriet, probably your first target in Deathloop, and holder of the Nexus Slab which binds the fate of enemies together.
]]>No one makes a shotgun quite like the Bethesda stable of studios, from Dishonored to Wolfenstein and Doom, Deathloop joins the party with the Heritage Gun, also known as the Super Shifty.
]]>In Deathloop, one of Charlie Montague’s giant LARP games, The Moxie, opens in Updaam during the afternoon. With a powerful prize promised to the triumphant winner, what can Colt do other than use every trick in the book to snag it for himself?
]]>If you love the smell of Updaam in the morning, head over to Deathloop’s Smoking Contest near Colt’s apartment for a devious door code puzzle.
]]>At the heart of Deathloop in both narrative and video game terms is the titular loop. One might argue that Arkane Studios has embraced something of a loop itself, too. There’s a certain type of game they make, a certain feel that ties together Dishonored, Prey, and now Deathloop. Like this game’s lead, Arkane has forged a new path with a canny combination of repetition and experimentation; repeating and refining many of the mechanics and ideas that made their past games great, while introducing new concepts that serve to elevate the game as a whole.
