What is DEATHLOOP?

In this first-person shooter set on the retro-futurist island of Blackreef, Colt must kill eight targets in one day to escape a time loop. You revisit areas to gather clues, weapons, and abilities, then sneak or fight your way to each target. Another player can optionally invade your campaign as Colt's rival, Julianna.

For you if...

+you like choosing stealth or combat during missions
+you enjoy planning assassinations across repeated runs
+you want optional invasions during a story campaign

Not for you if...

−you want a campaign without revisiting the same areas
−you prefer solving mysteries without guided objectives
