Arkane Lyon’s Deathloop is in a weird place. It was declared a Playstation exclusive when it was first announced, but since then, Microsoft has purchased the entirety of Bethesda — the software giant that owns Arkane. This means the studio’s next big release won’t be on their parent company’s system — just the competition. Go figure. Today Arkane revealed the release date for the game, along other details. We’ll be able to pick it up starting May 21, 2021 (assuming no delays from this point).

Ever since Arkane Lyon, the studio behind Prey and the excellent Dishonored series, said they were retiring the latter in favor of something different, we wondered what their new idea was. Tonight during Bethesda’s E3 conference, they rolled out the first trailer for…Deathloop. The premise, as best as we can understand it: Two assassins, Colt and Julianna, wind up on a remote island called Blackreef. The island has all sorts of dangers, but Colt’s biggest problem is that his day keeps resetting and keeping him from making any progress escaping the island. He’s trapped in a time loop, and the trailer suggests the only way to break it….is to find and assassinate Julianna. Julianna seems to have the same goal, but HER mission is to PRESERVE the time loop. DEATHLOOP” transports players to the lawless island of Blackreef in an eternal struggle between two extraordinary assassins. Explore stunning environments and meticulously designed levels in an immersive gameplay experience that lets you approach every situation any way you like. Hunt down
