Under, a Horror Game Set on a Sinking Ship, Gets a Release Date and New Trailer

Under, the horror game with shades of P.T. set on a sinking ship, will arrive for PC on October 25, with console releases to follow at a later date - and we've got an exclusive new trailer to show you. Set on an abandoned, sinking ocean liner in the aftermath of a torpedo strike, Under has you playing WW1 veteran Alexander Dockter and attempting to escape the flooding lower decks, and hostile entities stalking the halls. Check out a brand new trailer below. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/09/08/under-trailer-2-exclusive"] Speaking to IGN, developer Globiss Interactive explains that the game is structured as a single, seven-deck ocean liner, beginning on the lower decks and having players travel to the top decks to escape. However, it won't necessarily be that simple - some puzzles will require returning to the lower decks and into the flood to progress. The game will involve a mixture of puzzle solving, action (both in terms of escaping the flood and combat), and stealth, as you try and avoid the gruesome creatures around the ship - which may be a visualiation of Alexander's own trauma from the war. While the initial release will solely be for PC, a Switch version is also in active development - publisher Rogue and Globiss plan to ship it as close to the PC release as possible but can't yet commit to a specific date. You can wishlist the game on Steam now, and check out 5 minutes of Under gameplay [poilib element="accentDivider"] Joe Skrebels is IGN's Executive Editor of News. Follow him on Twitter.
