Deathloop’s a solid game, though a step down from Arkane’s other titles. It plays pretty much like Dishonored (even having the same teleport skill), but conceptually it’s closer to something like Hitman. The goal being to gather knowledge about targets and learn what they do throughout the day, in order to eliminate them all in just one loop.

The art direction’s great but the level design’s a bit disappointing, not really matching the likes of Dishonored or Prey for me. The four areas to explore are small and after the first few loops there’s not much variation to them, which could feel pretty boring after a while.

Also the AI is definitely not impressive and combat is really easy, but there is a cool mechanic where you can play as Julianna and invade another player’s game to try and take them out (and vice versa), which gave the game a bit more challenge.
