In the horror game Still Wakes The Deep, developed by The Chinese Room, we will face a supernatural fear in 1980s Scotland.
Developed by indie developer The Chinese Room and designed by Rob McLachlan , Still Wakes the Deep immerses players in the dark and mysterious world of the Beira D oil rig, stranded at sea in the north of Scotland in the 1980s. In this narrative-driven horror adventure, your goal is to solve a series of mysterious events that occur as communication lines are cut and you desperately try to survive. The game forces you to search for salvation in an environment full of deadly dangers, while being hunted by an unsettling, unknown force.
Still Wakes the Deep: A Struggle for Survival in the Dark Waters of the North Sea
In the game, you play as a rig worker trying to survive in the dark and freezing waters of the North Sea, in dangerous surroundings and in the midst of a violent storm. Communication lines have been cut, escape routes have been destroyed, and all that is left is to face the incomprehensible fear that has seeped into the ship. You must find your teammates and, if possible, try to keep them alive. You will run through flooded corridors, climb and swim across storm-battered outer decks. You will face a relentless, terrifying enemy, and pray for the hope that one day you will see your family again.
The production offers a tense atmosphere where they must face an unknown threat, unarmed and defenseless. While trying to piece together the aftermath of the accident and understand what happened, it is adorned with stories of people who were horribly murdered on the platform. The game’s plot is inspired by iconic horror films from the 70s and 80s, which adds a deep tension and mystery to its atmosphere.
In the game, which combines modern game mechanics with a story that reflects the spooky aesthetics of classic horror films, we will try to survive and progress by using our intelligence and environment, without using any weapons, armor or special powers.
The narrative-driven first-person horror game follows the developer’s legacy of previous successful projects Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture and Dear Esther. We also know the company for its adventure game Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2.
Still Wakes the Deep, which will be released on June 18 on Xbox Series X/S and Game Pass platforms, aims to provide an unforgettable experience for players in the horror and adventure genres.
