Is ‘Deadlock’ truly Valve’s next shooter?

What’s odd is that Valve isn’t trying to shut down or remove the leaked Deadlock content.

This inaction has led to speculation on Reddit that the leaks are anintentionalmarketing ploy by Valve.

As Valve’s Deadlock game details leak en masse, company remains suspiciously silent

As one Redditor said, “Free marketing without putting much work into it.”

There’s also no denying the footage has that classic Valve game feel.

Players can buff skills, ammo capacity, stamina, and more with Souls.

If this is an elaborate ruse, it’s one of the most insanely detailed ones gaming has seen.

The last time we saw something of similar magnitude was the GTA VIdata dumpin September 2022.
