Xbox Game Pass subscribers can now mark June 18 on their calendars, as that's the day that day one horror game Still Wakes the Deep will join the popular subscription service. New Xbox Game Pass announcements typically happen through the official Xbox blog posts, but there are times when information about upcoming Game Pass titles come from other sources as well.
Whenever a game is confirmed for Xbox Game Pass, its eventual release date announcement clues fans in on when they can expect it to hit the service well in advance of Xbox's official blog post. So is the case with Still Wakes the Deep, an upcoming day one horror game that was featured at the recent Future Games Show Spring Showcase event.
Xbox Game Pass Adds One of 2022's Most Underrated Games
The number of March 2024 additions to Xbox Game Pass rises up to ten with the arrival of one of 2022's most underrated games.
Still the Wakes Deep is a day one Xbox Game Pass game developed by The Chinese Room, the studio behind Dear Esther, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, and Little Orpheus. Still the Wakes the Deep is set on an isolated oil rig and has players contending with what appears to be supernatural horrors as well as some kind of biological threat. Much of Still Wakes the Deep remains a mystery at the time of this writing, so Xbox Game Pass subscribers will have to play the game for themselves come June 18. It will also be available on PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store, as well as the PS5.
