During the panel on QuakeCon 2023 Studio Arkane Lyon Demonstrated an online PvP shooter Deathloop…
The mode is implemented through an invasion (the function can be turned off) into the campaign of a random player or friend, where instead of artificial intelligence, the second user takes on the role of the antagonist Julianne Blake, whose task is to stop the main character Colt.
Setting up weapons and abilities before starting the game.
Both characters have access to the same powers and weapons, with the exception of some unique skills. For example, Julianne can use Masquerade to change her appearance for NPCs, Visionaries, or even the main character, as well as act together with the inhabitants of the island, indicating to them the location of Colt or, on the contrary, receiving information about him from them. The Colt, in turn, can hack into combat turrets and sensors throughout Blackrif, and has an ability called Reprise, which allows him to return to life twice if he dies, unlike Julianne, who will only have one life. Therefore, in the game for her, you need to be more careful and take with cunning, use traps, tricks and distract attention.
Examples of Julianne skins unlocked through the progress line for hunter points.
Defeating Julianne, who is under the control of a living player, will restore the entire Reprise, and also bring powerful loot, which can include weapons, abilities, power-ups, items, and Residum – a resource that allows you to save weapons and skills in new cycles. At the same time, playing for Julianne does not have to go against. In reality, nothing prevents the player from helping Colt by throwing weapons at him or even killing enemies for him. The developers compared it to a game of cat and mouse, where a predator specifically allows the victim to escape, only to then catch up and crush.
Deathloop will be released 14 september on PlayStation 5 and PC on Steam.
