About the game

STILL WAKES THE DEEP is a return to the first-person narrative horror genre for The Chinese Room, creator of critically acclaimed games such as Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, and Dear Esther.

You are an offshore oil rig worker, fighting for your life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. All that remains is to face the unknowable horror that’s come aboard.

GAME FEATURES

• Explore a stunningly realised offshore oil rig in 1970’s Scotland that evolves throughout the story

• World-class visuals, audio, writing from award-winning studio The Chinese Room

• Star-studded cast of voice-actors: Alec Newman, Neve McIntosh, and more

• World-class, haunting soundtrack by Jason Graves

• Six hours of terrifying gameplay

• Brace yourself for a symphony of action, trepidation and awe

LIVE THE HORROR

• An immersive disaster story aboard an authentic North Sea oil rig

• Face a terrifying, unrelenting foe

• Pray that, one day, you get to see your family again

• Experience the beauty and ferocity of the sea, as it rips apart one of humanity’s strongest structures and its steadfast crew

ESCAPE THE RIG

• Avoid, distract, and sneak around in best attempts to survive

• No weapons. No powers. Just your wits and determination

• Run, climb, and swim through the flooding corridors and storm-lashed outer decks

• Struggle for survival, as one wrong step could be your last

How to activate

Guide for Xbox Series X|S

Primary — the game is shared with your own profile

1Press the Xbox button, open "Profile & system" → "Add or switch" → "Add new" and sign in with the login and password from your order.
2Now open "Settings" → "General" → "Personalization" → "My home Xbox" and choose "Make this my home Xbox". This is what shares our games with every profile on your console.
3Switch back to your own profile, open "My games & apps" → "Library" and install the game. The internet is only needed for the download.
4Launch the game from your own profile: achievements, saves and progress stay yours, and after the installation the game works offline.

Only one console at a time can be the home Xbox for our account — that is the slot you bought. Please do not change the password, the email or the two-factor settings of the account, or the access will be blocked.

Secondary — you play from our account

1Press the Xbox button, open "Profile & system" → "Add or switch" → "Add new" and sign in with the login and password from your order.
2Open "My games & apps" → "Library", switch to our profile in the top-left corner and install the game.
3Launch the game while our profile stays signed in, and keep the console online: the licence is checked over the internet.
4Use your own profile for everything else — the game stays available as long as our account is signed in on this console.

Secondary costs less, but it needs a permanent internet connection and our account stays signed in on your console.

Activation code

1On the console open "Store" and go to the "Redeem code" section.
2Enter the 25-character code from your order and confirm the activation on your own account.
3After the activation the code is shown as "Used" — but you can reinstall the game from your library at any time.

Notes for Xbox Series

Important

Do not change the password or the email of our account, do not disable two-factor authentication and do not activate Primary on several consoles at once — that blocks the access. Details are in the "Warranty" section.
