Xbox Game Pass subscribers looking to change it up in June are in luck because a horror game with an especially unique setting is set to arrive on the service in the middle of the month. There may already be plenty of terrifying games available on Game Pass, including modern hits like Amnesia: The Bunker and Bramble: The Mountain King, but thanks to Microsoft’s handy Day One program, fans needn’t wait for some of the most highly-anticipated releases. Subscribers will be able to quake with fear alongside everyone else who purchased the game on other platforms.

Per Pure Xbox, Game Pass subscribers with a taste for the macabre can look forward to the release of Still Wakes The Deep on June 18. Developed by the popular development studio The Chinese Room, the team behind some excellent narrative adventure games like Dear Esther, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, and Everybody’s Gone to Rapture, its latest project places players onboard a massive oil rig in the dangerous North Sea. Of course, with such an isolated setting, it stands to reason that something goes terribly wrong and protagonist Caz McLeary is forced to fight a terrifying monster.

    Sweet, I had forgotten about this but now I’m looking forward to it again. It looks interesting, just hope it’s not mostly a walking sim.

      I hadn’t even known about it until now. Looks like it could be great. But I agree on the walking Sim point, that would kill it.
