Unveiled: A terrifying first-person shooter that transports Lovecraftian horrors onto Xbox and PS5 platforms - give the free trial a spin!
In the world of gaming, excitement is building for an upcoming release that promises to deliver a heart-pounding experience. Beneath, set for launch in 2025, is a survival horror first-person shooter (FPS) game that will be available on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC.
Developed by Camel 101 and published by Wired Productions, Beneath draws clear inspiration from the atmospheric environments and tense gameplay of Metro Exodus and the fear-driven gunplay and supernatural dread of F.E.A.R. The game transports players into a chilling narrative where they take on the role of Noah Quinn, an experienced diver who finds himself stranded at sea, battling nightmarish creatures and an ancient evil. The dangers Noah faces in the game's story are said to threaten not only him but also his daughter and all of humanity.
The game's setting is primarily based around locations near, on, or under the ocean, giving it a Lovecraftian emphasis on the terrors that lie in the ocean's depths. Stealth is a crucial aspect of Beneath's gameplay, with ammunition being sparse, mirroring the stealth-or-shoot nature of Metro and the tense combat and supernatural horrors of F.E.A.R. or Trepang2.
Enemies in Beneath are driven by adaptive AI, ensuring a dynamic and unpredictable experience. The Xbox Series X|S and PS5 versions of Beneath were recently announced with a new trailer, though a concrete release date has yet to be announced. A potential release around Winter 2025 is expected.
For those eager to get a taste of Beneath before its release, a free-to-play playtest demo is currently available on Steam for a limited time. The demo ends on August 4.
Beneath is shaping up to be one of the best Xbox games and best PC games of the year for fans of the survival, horror, and FPS genres. Upon release, it will be available on Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store for PC.
