Still Wakes the Deep launch trailer sets the scene for a grizzly ship-bound cosmic horror

Key art for Still Wakes the Deep, showing the game's doomed oil rig setting enclosed within a human silhouette.

Best known for meditative narrative games like Everybody's Gone to the Rapture and Dear Esther, The Chinese Room also has some impressive experience with horror games: see 2013's Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, which led the horror genre into a stranger, less overtly violent direction. Still Wakes the Deep sees the British studio returning to horror, and as the new trailer shown at the PC Gaming Show today demonstrates, it's looking extremely tense indeed.
