Dear community, wished to share with you a video that has been publicised as part of the Xbox Gamescom stream just as we are making this live here, too...
In this Introduction to Worldbuilding video, we explore the narrative behind Still Wakes the Deep and the research driving development. Lead Environment Artist Iain Gillespie, Associate Art Director Laura Dodds, and Lead Designer Rob McLachlan offer a behind-the-scenes look into our next title.
We discuss how the environment will evolve over time as well as the key inspirations behind the game’s horror. The period, the geographical location of the rig – these all play a crucial role in this narrative-driven horror story. Fans will discover how the team developed a fascination for cranes and scoured British Petroleum's documentary archives when striving for an authentic representation of a Scottish oil rig in the 1970s.
We hope you enjoy it, and feel free to leave a comment with what you'd like to hear about next in a similar format...🌊
