By Mack Ashworth

DEATHLOOP REVIEW FOR PC AND PS5.

With Deathloop, developer Arkane Studios clearly aims to incorporate lessons learned from Dishonored, Prey, and earlier games with a new invasion element that adds multiplayer to the mix.

  • Time-travel story is compelling.
  • Colt and Julianna are great characters.
  • Stealth isn't mandatory.
  • Weapons and abilities feel good.
  • Runs smoothly enough on PS5.
  • Playing as Colt when Julianna invades.
  • Playing as Julianna and invading Colt.
  • Lots of reading.
  • AI sucks.
  • Limited useful upgrades.
  • Few, small levels.
  • Some weak spots in multiplayer.
