Deathloop: Point of no return - is there one? Deathloop guide, walkthrough

This Deathloop game guide page explains if there is a point of no return in the campaign finale that blocks optional quests and activities.

Last update: 09 September 2021

This page of the guide explains if Deathloop features the so-called point of no return, which is the point of the campaign after which you can't do any optional quests or activities. Additionally, we explain whether you can keep playing after endgame - this can be important if you want to complete 100% of Deathloop.

At first glance, the campaign in Deathloop, unlike many games, isn't divided into main and side missions, but the Visionary Leads quests are an equivalent of main missions. You must complete all of these missions to unlock the endgame - Ending It.

Starting the Ending It mission is not irreversible. It consists of several parts and can be stopped at any time (failing the mission is also possible, and in such case, you'd have to replay it completely).

The point of no return will appear soon after you enter the Complex - we've discussed this event in more detail in our walkthrough. Soon after entering the underground location you will be faced with a choice shown in picture 2. Confirming that you want to proceed will start the endgame phase.

After watching one of the available endings, you will see the ending credits and a board with thanks for completing the game. You don't have to replay Colt's entire campaign. You will automatically revert to the state before you took the Ending it mission. You will be able to replay the last mission (to unlock a different ending) or freely engage in optional activities and tasks which you have not yet completed - this is the unofficial endgame phase. As a result, you don't have to wait to do the endgame until you've completed all side activities. There'll be time for that later.
