Still Wakes the Deep: Siren's Rest - New Paid Story Expansion Awakens June 18

The Chinese Room and Secret Mode are proud to announce the next installment of the triple BAFTA award-winning narrative horror, Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest - releasing on June 18th, exactly one year after the original game’s launch.

Over a decade has passed since the Beira D incident. Now a groaning steel catacomb interred in the inky depths of the North Sea, the families of those workers who vanished without a trace want answers. They want the truth. 

You are Mhairi, the leader of an expedition dive, determined to answer those questions and finally lay the mystery to rest.

But there are things lurking in the depths that even the sea cannot claim…

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Seeing the reaction from our community to Still Wakes the Deep has been incredible, and it is an honour that we’re able to continue the story in this brand new expansion, priced at £9.99/$12.99/€12.99 on Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox via PC and Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. 

Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest will also be available to pre purchase here on Steam, from 6PM BST today. 

Having Still Wakes the Deep installed will be required to play the Siren’s Rest expansion, and we highly recommend completing the base game first to get a complete picture of the story. Yet to delve into the Beira D? Now is a perfect time to do so, with Still Wakes the Deep currently available at 50% off, and Siren’s Rest having a 15% pre-purchase and limited-time launch discount, exclusively on Steam. We also have a bundle for both the base game and Siren’s Rest, which can be pre-purchased at 6PM BST for further savings.

In addition, we’re pleased to announce we’re hosting a one week fan art competition in the Secret Mode Discord, where three lucky winners will receive keys for Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest and the best entry will also receive a cassette player and cassette of the Still Wakes the Deep soundtrack!
