Kill creepy new critters with a variety of new weapons, meet the first NPCs in the game and check out the new trailer!
Hamburg, Germany, July 8th, 2022 – This summer it’s not just getting hot above ground but also below the depths of the sea: Coghweel Software’s sci-fi horror game Hidden Deep today receives a major content update titled ‘Kill it With Fire’. You can now burn a variety of disgusting new enemies to a crisp with the new flamethrower, meet the very first NPCs in the game, test your survival skills in three new levels and much more. To celebrate the new update, Hidden Deep is available with a 60% discount on Steam this weekend.
Hidden Deep is a sci-fi horror game inspired by classic horror movies from the 80s and 90s where you explore a suboceanic research and mining facility alone or with friends. Three new levels are available now, so players can face even more challenges than before.
The ‘Kill it With Fire’ update adds three new enemies to the game that will make exploring the facility even more perilous than ever. Beware the zombie-like transmorphs, run away from the scuttlebugs and make sure not to step into their nests! Or simply roast them with the new flamethrower…And if you prefer bullets, you can also exterminate monsters with shotguns, small-calibre pistols, or even a submachine gun. If things are getting a little too close for comfort, you can always fall back on a crowbar. What’s good enough for Mr. Freeman is good enough for our rescue team.
The new update also introduces NPCs for the very first time. At the moment, they are friendly and even offer assistance but there’s no guarantee they will stay harmless and helpful forever…
Hidden Deep is currently in Early Access on Steam. Check out the TikTok channel for videos showing off all the body-horror, action and humor the game has to offer, or join the active Discord community.
