"We're committed to quality and preserving our team's ambitions for Deathloop while ensuring the health and safety of everyone at Arkane, We'll be using this extra time to accomplish our goal: create a fun, stylish, and mind-bending player experience."

Game director Dinga Bakaba and art director Sebastien Mitton said that Arkane has chosen to delay Deathoop from May 21 to September 14, 2021. Originally, Deathloop was planned to launch with PlayStation 5, therefore was anticipated around November/December 2020. Arkane then moved the project to 2021, picking the May 21 date. Now we will need to wait a few more months; #BUMMER, with September 14 being the revised date.
