Ever since we launched Still Wakes the Deep nearly one year ago, we have been blown away by the reception it received. From glowing reviews by the media and content creators experiencing the demise of the Beira D alongside their chat, all the way to every single review and comment made by our incredible players, including you reading this right now - it has truly been heartwarming.

What made us even happier were the awards that we were not only nominated for, but won! While there are still some award ceremonies to come in the following months, we wanted to take the time to celebrate the successes Still Wakes the Deep has had over the past year with you. After all, a game is nothing without its players.

Fresh off the back of our triple BAFTA win, Still Wakes the Deep has awakened in the Steam Lovecraftian Days event. Are you ready to dive in?

Running from today until Monday 21st April, Still Wakes the Deep will be 50% off. So if you or your pals have not yet joined the Beira D crew, and had the misfortune of crossing paths with Rennick's big head (and that's just his ego!), then now is the perfect time to get a big gift of horror in the North Sea.
