• 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)

• Mandelbricks: A high-value loot item in Hazard Operations that can be extracted and sold for in-game currency, including premium 'Delta Coins'.
• Campaign Intel: Hidden collectibles within the 'Black Hawk Down' single-player campaign that provide additional story context.

• 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.

  Fast-moving watercraft for navigating rivers and coastal areas on certain maps.

• No Player-Controlled Vehicles (General Traversal)
  Colt Vahn primarily traverses the districts of Blackreef on foot, utilizing his parkour-like agility and supernatural Slab abilities (like Shift for teleportation). There are no player-drivable cars, bikes, or other traditional vehicles for general exploration within the districts.
• 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.

• Operator: Playable Character
  Players choose from a roster of Operators, each fitting into one of four classes: Assault, Recon, Engineer, or Support. Each Operator has a unique backstory, appearance, and set of abilities.
• Private Generics: Playable Character (Campaign)
  The player character in the 'Black Hawk Down' campaign, representing an anonymous soldier in the conflict.

• Colt Vahn ('The Captain'): Protagonist / Assassin
  The main playable character. An assassin trapped in a time loop on Blackreef with amnesia. He is determined to break the loop by assassinating the eight Visionaries. Known for his wisecracking personality and resourcefulness.
• Julianna Blake ('Jules', 'Archives Lass'): Antagonist / Rival Assassin / Visionary
  Head of security for the AEON Program and a Visionary. She is also trapped in the loop and actively hunts Colt to protect it, engaging in witty and often taunting radio conversations. Can be controlled by another player or AI.
• Aleksis 'The Wolf' Dorsey: Visionary / AEON Program Financier
  A hedonistic and narcissistic businessman who throws an extravagant wolf-themed party every night in Updaam. One of Colt's assassination targets.

• Warfare
  A large-scale, 64-player PvP mode where two teams fight for control of objectives on a massive map featuring land, sea, and air vehicles.
• Hazard Operations
  A squad-based, tactical extraction shooter where teams compete against other players and AI to complete contracts, secure valuable loot, and escape the map alive.

• 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.

The game is divided into three main modes: 1) Warfare: 64-player large-scale PvP with vehicles. 2) Operations: A squad-based extraction shooter (PvPvE). 3) Black Hawk Down: A tactical single-player and 4-player co-op campaign (co-op currently PC-only).

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 core multiplayer experience (Warfare and Operations) is free-to-play. The 'Black Hawk Down' single-player and co-op campaign is a separate, premium purchase. Console players receive exclusive login rewards and Battle Pass boost events at launch.

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.

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: What is the new Delta Force?
  A: It is a reboot of the classic tactical shooter franchise. It includes three main modes: a remastered 'Black Hawk Down' single-player/co-op campaign, a large-scale PvP mode called 'Warfare', and an extraction shooter mode called 'Operations'.
• Q: Is Delta Force free to play?
  A: The multiplayer portion of the game (Warfare and Operations) is free-to-play. The 'Black Hawk Down' campaign is a separate, premium purchase.
• Q: What games is it similar to?
  A: The 'Warfare' mode is very similar to the large-scale battles in the Battlefield series. The 'Operations' mode is similar to extraction shooters like Escape from Tarkov and Call of Duty's DMZ.
• Q: Does the game have cross-play?
  A: Yes, Delta Force features full cross-platform play and cross-progression between PC, consoles, and mobile devices, with a console-only matchmaking option.

• 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.
