The official Xbox podcast has treated us to a bit of exclusive information this weekend, as a chat with a couple of developers behind Deathloop has revealed that the game officially takes place in the same world as Dishonored.
Many fans had expected as such, and Arkane's Dinga Bakaba finally confirmed it on the show:
"We envision Deathloop to be happening in the future after [Dishonored:] Death of the Outsider."
"There are a lot of clues actually in the game. There are some that are obvious, but there are a lot of small, things, and some that were under people's noses all the time..."
You can check out the full discussion about this in the timestamped video above.
If you haven't tried it yet, we highly recommend checking out Deathloop on Xbox Game Pass! We've been playing the Xbox Series X version for a few weeks now, and awarded it a rare 10/10 ("Outstanding") score in our review:
Surprised by this confirmation, or did you suspect it the entire time? Let us know in the comments below.

And that matters because?
Also, the past of Prey. The turrets are very similar design.
That's random.... How is a victorian gothic steam punk thing actually related to 70s funk?
@NEStalgia That's what I was thinking, and both series don't seem even remotely connected lol.
Surprised to see so much negativity in this comment section.
From the Blink power itself to the general architecture of the buildings it's not exactly a stretch of the imagination to imagine the series being remotely linked.
They play similarly, they make sense together. The connection makes total sense in my view, and I've played all the Dishonored games.
@NEStalgia They said the future... So Deathloop is the 70s of their universe.
Everything is a universe now. Can't function if we don't inject that buzzword into everything. STFU
@AverageGamer And Star Wars is the future of Harry Potter's universe, lol. The little hints are everywhere!
@NEStalgia That wouldnt work consider Star Wars litteraly has "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...." at the start of basically everything... So most of events of Star Wars would probably take place before the events of Harry Potter which is set from 1991 to 1998.
@AverageGamer Ok, so Potter is the future of Star Wars. Now we're definitely into Bethesda logic!
