Darkwater description

Darkwater is a cooperative extraction horror game set beneath the frozen ocean of an alien moon. You command a submarine and try to survive in the icy depths after a devastating disease strikes the planet and the government freezes the ocean’s surface. Fuel and supplies are scarce, so survival depends on travelling between abandoned outposts and bringing back the resources needed to keep going.

The crew is trapped beneath the ice after the government freezes the ocean in response to the disease. Travelling from outpost to outpost is part of a desperate effort to survive, while discoveries along the way reveal snippets of information about a greater truth. Rival vessels may be negotiated with, but conflict remains a possibility.

Gameplay and features

  • Scavenge underwater sites: Dock at abandoned outposts to search for supplies, and explore dilapidated underwater facilities on foot. Fuel canisters are critical to survival, and your crew needs enough carrying capacity to bring them back.
  • Fight underwater and aboard submarines: Encounter infected divers, deep-sea angler fish and alien crabs, using weapons such as sledgehammers, blow torches, pistols and shotguns. Submarine combat includes torpedoes, harpoons, decoy mines and depth charges; a manned torpedo can also be used to board an enemy vessel.
  • Operate and develop your submarine: Take direct control of piloting, weapons and sonar systems, then upgrade the vessel by expanding its deck or investing in different cabins. Unique rooms can support hacking, stealth and other strategic options.
  • Play alone or with a crew: Darkwater can be played solo or with a submariner crew. Up to four players can team up against the deep-sea threats, with teamwork also important when carrying fuel back to the submarine.
