  Robot

• None (Gameplay - Colt's Perspective): Colt Vahn operates as a lone assassin throughout his attempts to break the loop. He does not have any AI companions that follow him or assist in combat during his playthrough.
• Julianna Blake (Via Radio Comms & Invasions): While primarily an antagonist, Julianna is a constant presence via radio, engaging in witty, taunting, and sometimes informative banter with Colt. When she invades (as AI or another player), she acts as a direct, intelligent adversary, but not a companion.
  Human (Visionary)
• Themselves (Multiple Wenjies): Dr. Wenjie Evans has multiple versions of herself existing simultaneously in her lab due to time loop experiments. While these are all 'Wenjie' and act as enemies, they can sometimes interact with each other or be manipulated by Colt, creating a unique dynamic unlike traditional companions.
  Human (Visionary Clones)

• Campaign Intel: Hidden collectibles within the single-player campaign levels that provide additional lore and narrative context.
• Portal Assets: Content from previous Battlefield games (maps, weapons, vehicles) that are usable within the Battlefield Portal sandbox.

• Slabs & Slab Upgrades: Slabs (supernatural powers) are initially acquired by assassinating the Visionary who possesses them. Slab Upgrades are earned by defeating that Visionary again in subsequent loops, or by defeating an invading Julianna who is using that Slab. These upgrades enhance the functionality of each Slab (e.g., Shift can be upgraded to allow hovering or reaching further).
• Trinkets (Character & Weapon): Found throughout Blackreef in containers, on Eternalists, or as rewards for completing small objectives or puzzles. Character Trinkets provide passive buffs to Colt (e.g., increased health, double jump, faster movement). Weapon Trinkets enhance firearms (e.g., faster reload, increased accuracy, silenced shots, elemental bullets).
• Residuum: A shimmering energy resource collected from glowing objects, downed Visionaries, or by sacrificing unwanted Infused gear. Used at the end of each time period (Morning, Noon, Afternoon, Evening) to 'Infuse' weapons, Slabs, and Trinkets, allowing them to be carried over to the next loop. Essential for permanent progression.
• Documents (Notes, Letters, Schematics, Audiologs): Readable or listenable lore items found throughout all districts. They provide crucial backstory on the AEON Program, the Visionaries, Colt's past, Julianna's motivations, the nature of the time loop, and clues for assassinating targets or solving puzzles. Key to unraveling Blackreef's mystery.
• Weapon & Gear Tiers (Common, Rare, Epic - Indicated by color): Weapons and some Trinkets can be found in different rarity tiers, with higher tiers often having more perk slots or better base stats. Colt will typically seek out higher-tier versions of his preferred gear.
• Leads & Discoveries (Visionary Leads, Arsenal Leads): Information gathered by Colt that is tracked in his menu. Visionary Leads provide clues about targets' schedules, weaknesses, and how to manipulate events to line them up for assassination. Arsenal Leads point towards unique weapons or powerful Slabs/Trinkets.

• Weapon Skins (Limited): Some unique or Deluxe Edition weapons come with specific skins. A broader weapon skin customization system is not a primary feature, though Trinkets can sometimes alter weapon appearance slightly or add visual effects.

The game returns to a traditional four-class system (Assault, Engineer, Support, Recon), replacing the Specialists of BF2042. Each class has unique traits, gadgets, and weapon proficiencies. A new 'Training System' acts as a subclass, allowing players to choose one of two skill paths in each match to unlock progressive, teamwork-focused perks.

The game launched with nine multiplayer maps across four regions: Egypt, USA, Gibraltar, and Tajikistan. Maps like 'Siege of Cairo' offer dense urban combat, while 'Mirak Valley' provides a massive landscape for large-scale combined-arms warfare. The game also includes a remastered version of the fan-favorite 'Operation Firestorm' from Battlefield 3.

• Tunnels / Access Points (Between Districts & Time Periods): Map Transition Mechanic
  Colt travels between the four main districts (Updaam, Karl's Bay, Fristad Rock, The Complex) and advances the time of day (Morning, Noon, Afternoon, Evening) by returning to his underground tunnels/bunker and selecting his next destination and time slot from a map interface. This transition involves a loading screen and is how the 'loop' progresses from one segment to the next.
• Contextual Traversal Aids (e.g., Ramps for Sliding, Cranes, Rooftops): Environmental Elements
  Levels are designed with verticality and interconnectedness, featuring environmental elements like ramps for sliding, rooftops for parkour, cranes, or other structures that Colt can interact with or use to his advantage for traversal and stealthy approaches.

• Assault: Playable Class
  The primary frontline combatant, specializing in medium-range engagements and anti-infantry capabilities.
• Engineer: Playable Class
  The anti-vehicle and repair specialist, crucial for maintaining team vehicles and destroying enemy armor.
• Support: Playable Class
  The logistical backbone and combat medic of a squad, providing ammunition, health, and heavy suppressive fire.
• Recon: Playable Class
  The intel and long-range specialist, using sniper rifles and spotting gadgets to provide crucial information to the team. A headshot kill from a Recon prevents the enemy from being revived.

• Battle Royale
  A large-scale, last-squad-standing mode developed by Ripple Effect Studios.

• Visionary Leads (Assassination Storylines)
  The core progression involves pursuing 'Visionary Leads' for each of the eight targets. These are multi-step investigations across different districts and times of day, where Colt uncovers clues about a Visionary's schedule, habits, weaknesses, relationships, and potential ways to manipulate events to make them vulnerable or gather them with other targets. Completing these leads allows Colt to set up the 'perfect loop' to eliminate all targets in one day.
• Arsenal Leads (Weapon & Slab Acquisition)
  Specific leads that guide Colt towards acquiring powerful unique weapons, Slabs (supernatural powers from Visionaries), or significant Slab upgrades. These often involve solving puzzles, infiltrating specific locations at certain times, or defeating a Visionary for the first time.
• Discoveries & Side Puzzles
  Numerous smaller optional tasks, environmental puzzles, hidden safes, or mini-stories found by exploring Blackreef. These can reward Colt with valuable Trinkets, weapons, Residuum, lore documents, or open up new pathways and opportunities within a district.
• Breaking the Loop (The Final Day)
  Once Colt has gathered all necessary information and set up the required conditions by manipulating events in previous loops, he can attempt the 'final day' sequence. This involves executing a precise plan to assassinate all eight Visionaries across the four districts and time periods, culminating in a final confrontation or decision to break the time loop.
• Protect the Loop (Playing as Julianna - Online PvP)
  When playing as Julianna, the objective is to invade another player's (Colt's) game session and hunt them down. Julianna wins by killing Colt enough times to force him to reset his current district attempt. She has her own progression, loadouts, and can use map knowledge and traps to her advantage.

Features a full suite of multiplayer modes, including 64-player Conquest and Breakthrough, the return of Rush, and smaller modes like Domination and TDM. A new 'Escalation' mode funnels players into progressively tighter combat zones. A Battle Royale mode developed by Ripple Effect is also included at launch.

1. Protect the Loop (Online PvP): Players can choose to invade another player's game (who is playing as Colt) as Julianna Blake. Julianna's objective is to hunt down and kill Colt, protecting the time loop. She has her own progression, loadouts, and abilities. This mode can also be set to 'Friends Only' or 'Offline' (where Julianna is AI-controlled). 2. Single-Player Campaign (as Colt): The primary mode where players control Colt Vahn, attempting to assassinate the eight Visionaries and break the time loop, while also being hunted by an AI or player-controlled Julianna.

The game is available in a Standard Edition ($69.99) and a Phantom Edition ($99.99), which includes the Battlefield Pro Token, the Phantom cosmetic pack, and an XP Boost Set. Pre-ordering any edition grants the 'Tombstone Pack' of cosmetic items.

Available in Standard Edition and Deluxe Edition. Deluxe Edition included unique weapons (Transtar Trencher, Eat The Rich Tribunal, .44 Karat Fourpounder), character skins ('Party Crasher' Colt, 'Sharp Shooter' Julianna), and original soundtrack selections. Pre-order bonuses often included additional cosmetic items or trinkets.

The game is supported by a seasonal model with a Battle Pass for new content and cosmetics. The expanded 'Battlefield Portal' sandbox, powered by the Godot engine, allows for deep community-created content, including custom maps, modes, and even zombie horde experiences.

A major free update, 'GOLDENLOOP,' was released, adding a new powerful weapon (HALPS Prototype), a new ability (Fugue Slab - makes enemies confused), new enemy types (Paint-Bomber Eternalist), an extended ending, new Trinkets, and cross-play for PvP. No major paid story expansions have been released.

• Q: Does Battlefield 6 have a campaign?
  A: Yes. After being absent in Battlefield 2042, a full, cinematic single-player campaign returns, developed by Motive Studio.
• Q: What is the class system?
  A: The game returns to the traditional four-class system: Assault, Engineer, Support, and Recon. This replaces the Specialist system from Battlefield 2042.
• Q: What is 'Tactical Destruction'?
  A: It is a new, revamped environmental destruction system that is more reactive, consistent, and tactical, allowing players to strategically destroy buildings and cover.
• Q: What is Battlefield Portal?
  A: It is a massively expanded sandbox mode where players can create, share, and play custom game modes using assets from Battlefield 6 and classic titles. It now features a map editor and NPC scripting.

• Q: What is the main objective in DEATHLOOP?
  A: The main objective is to break the time loop by assassinating all eight Visionaries on Blackreef island within a single day. This requires investigating their routines, finding ways to get them in the same place or eliminate them efficiently across four time periods (Morning, Noon, Afternoon, Evening) in four different districts.
• Q: How does the time loop mechanic work?
  A: The day on Blackreef resets at the end of the Evening, or if Colt dies three times within a single district visit (his 'Reprise' ability allows two revivals). When the loop resets, non-Infused weapons, Slabs, and Trinkets are lost, and Visionaries/Eternalists respawn. However, Colt retains all learned information (Leads) and any gear he has 'Infused' with Residuum.
• Q: What is Infusion and Residuum?
  A: Residuum is a resource Colt collects from glowing objects or by sacrificing gear. Between time periods (e.g., when returning to his bunker), Colt can spend Residuum to 'Infuse' weapons, Slabs, and Trinkets he wants to keep. Infused items will carry over to subsequent loops, allowing for permanent progression of his loadout.
• Q: Can another player really hunt you as Julianna?
  A: Yes, DEATHLOOP features an optional online multiplayer mode called 'Protect the Loop.' If enabled, another player can invade your game as Julianna Blake, with the objective of killing Colt. You can also set this to 'Friends Only' or 'Offline' (where an AI Julianna will invade).
• Q: Are Slabs like Dishonored's powers?
  A: Yes, Slabs are very similar to the supernatural powers found in Arkane's Dishonored series. They grant unique abilities like teleportation (Shift), invisibility (Aether), telekinesis (Karnesis), linking enemies (Nexus), and a combat buff (Havoc). They are acquired from Visionaries and can be upgraded.
• Q: Is DEATHLOOP connected to the Dishonored universe?
  A: While not officially confirmed as a direct sequel or prequel, there are numerous fan theories and subtle hints within DEATHLOOP (and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider) that suggest a possible connection or shared multiverse between the two Arkane franchises. However, DEATHLOOP can be fully enjoyed as a standalone story.

Developed on Arkane's Void Engine, DEATHLOOP features a striking art style inspired by 1960s aesthetics, with bold colors, psychedelic patterns, and retro-futuristic designs. Blackreef's districts are visually distinct and detailed. The game uses stylized character models and environments, focusing on artistic direction over photorealism, though with high technical fidelity.

Original score composed by Tom Salta, with contributions from other artists like Sencit Music and Erich Talaba. Features a distinctive soundtrack blending 1960s spy thriller themes, psychedelic rock, jazz, and electronic elements, creating a unique and memorable audio identity. In-game licensed tracks also feature. Sound design is crucial for detecting enemies, environmental cues, and the distinct sounds of Slabs and special weapons.

Features a stylish, 1960s-inspired HUD displaying health, power (for Slabs), equipped weapons/Slabs, and objective markers. A leads system helps track clues and Visionary movements across districts and times of day. Menus for loadouts, Slabs, Trinkets, discoveries, and objectives are accessible. Colt's inner monologue and interactions with Julianna provide constant narrative and guidance.

Offers a range of accessibility options, including customizable controls (PC), extensive subtitle and caption customization, options for aim assist strength, adjustable UI element size, colorblind modes, options to reduce head bob/motion blur, and various gameplay toggles for difficulty and HUD elements.
