Deathloop: The Game That Happened Because of Bethesda's Uncertainty Over Dishonored 3
TL;DR
Bethesda wasn't interested in a Dishonored 3, so Arkane created Deathloop as a small game to learn more about developing a multiplayer game. Bethesda wanted something simple and short before deciding on the next project. Deathloop grew more and more, leaving the roguelike angle behind, but keeping in elements of repetition. Ironically, Deathloop could be seen as an alternative Dishonored 3, as both are set in the same universe.
