Hype-Ranking Every Remaining Video Game Of 2021

2. Deathloop

Brilliantly, one of the most hyped titles of the year is also the one dropping the soonest - if not by the time you read this.

Deathloop sees Arkane Studios apply all their gameplay tricks and awesome mission design innovations from both Dishonoreds and Prey, into an open-world timeloop title where you need to assassinate eight targets in one successful run.

You'll drop into areas at different points of the day, learn info that cross-unlocks opportunities or items in another timeline, eventually pulling off the ultimate kill-streak to break the "Deathloop" entirely.

With live elements and player invasions also factoring in, it's worth taking a moment to simply love the fact that a team as inventive as Arkane have been given the budget and means to pull all this off.
