The Arkane-developed action game was originally released on PS5 and PC on September 14, 2021. Now that the exclusivity period has elapsed, an ad for the game has begun appearing on Xbox dashboards. However, selecting the ad doesn’t currently lead to an Xbox store page, as it appears it has gone live too early. No release date has been provided at the time of writing, and it’s unclear if the game will be added to Xbox Game Pass. Deathloop - Official Protect the Loop TrailerSubscribe to VGC on YouTube Deathloop released during an unprecedented situation wherein the game was a PS5 console exclusive, despite the fact that Arkane’s parent company Id Software was the in the process of being acquired by Microsoft. While Microsoft honoured that original exclusivity deal which was made before negotiations began, the company made clear that it intended to release the acclaimed shooter on its platform as soon as it could. Deathloop is billed as a murder puzzle in which players assume the role of an assassin trapped in a time loop on a lawless island called Blackreef. To escape it, players must kill a group of eight targets before the day resets, using a range of modifiable weapons, gadgets and supernatural abilities which can be carried over between loops. In VGC’s 5-star Deathloop review, critic Jon Bailes called the title “one of the smartest and most outright entertaining games of the year.” He wrote: “Deathloop is slick and inventive, with a delicious sense of style and humour. It distils Arkane’s hefty systems into something more explicitly playful, then leaves its sparkling cast to run riot in its huge interlocking puzzle of an island.” 33 Comments Related VGC Content September s PlayStation Plus Game Catalog titles are now available to claim2 weeks ago New Xbox Game Pass titles for console PC and Cloud have been dated2 weeks ago Deathloop is officially coming to Xbox Game Pass next week3 weeks ago Popular Now on VGC1 Harley Quinn voice actor criticises Chris Pratt Mario casting ‘ It should be Charles’ 2 Phil Spencer could be teasing Xbox s game streaming device in a new office photo3 Modern Warfare 2 will seemingly require a phone number like Overwatch 24 Interview How PlatinumGames is betting on Nintendo expertise to shape its future5 Platinum thinks hiring of Nintendo veteran can take the companies relationship to the next level More Video Game News1 US PlayStation shipments were reportedly up 400% last monthPS5 supply appears to be increasing as Christmas approaches1 hour ago1 Comment Overwatch 2 servers down for some as Blizzard removes two heroes temporarilyThe game's rocky launch has caused much fan frustration2 hours ago Sonic Frontiers will get free Monster Hunter DLC shortly after launchThe favour is being returned after last year's Sonic DLC in Monster Hunter3 hours ago14 PS5’ s new ‘ driving survivial game’ Pacific Drive revealed during State of PlayPlayers scavenge for resources to maintain and improve their car in order to survive3 weeks ago14 CommentsBy commenting on this article you agree to adhere to VGC’s community guidelines.
