Deathloop, the upcoming game from Arkane Studios has been delayed until Autumn 2021.
In a message shared on the official Deathloop Twitter account, Arkane noted the toll that COVID-19 has taken on the development of the game.
“The health and safety of everyone at Arkane Lyon remains our top priority. As we’ve adjusted to work-from-home, we found that delivering this new and exciting experience, at the polish and quality level that defines both an Arkane game and a true next-gen experience, is taking longer than normal.”
Deathloop was announced during Bethesda’s E3 2019 conference — hey, remember E3? The game features a mixture of typical Arkane stealth and action with a Groundhog Day-inspired loop sending your character on a seemingly never-ending quest to escape their killers.
