If one is left alive, or Cole is killed, the entire day “resets” and it starts all over again.

Deathloop offers a unique approach to the FPS genre and the gameplay is silky smooth letting you interact with Arkane’s dazzling universe in fun and engaging ways. Deathloop brings together so many mechanics that wouldn’t usually mix is a true testament to developer’s pedigree and skill. Breakaway from the usual FPS fare and step into the loop, you’ll be glad you did!
