In Dark Depths, you play as Dr. Elias Voss, a renegade oceanographer on a desperate mission to uncover the fate of his missing sister and expose a secret buried beneath the waves. Piloting your custom-built deep-sea submarine, you’ll explore uncharted trenches, decipher alien symbols, and piece together a conspiracy hidden by the world’s most powerful governments.
What begins as a research dive turns into a desperate race against time as you enter the Mid-Atlantic Exclusion Zone—a region abandoned, classified, and silenced.
Shadowed by hostile submarines and haunted by strange signals, you must navigate vast underwater landscapes, outmaneuver covert Blackwave patrols, and survive the pull of a force older than humanity itself.
As the mystery deepens, you’ll discover audio logs, encrypted messages, and forbidden ruins pointing to a terrible truth: something is waking up beneath the ocean floor… and it remembers us.
