Horror fans, get ready to plunge into the unknown. Submersed 2 – The Hive, the upcoming underwater horror game from Main Loop Videogames and Relevo, is now offering a free demo on Steam ahead of its official release on May 29, 2025.
In Submersed 2, players descend into The Hive—an isolated underwater research facility that mysteriously lost contact with the surface four years ago. No one has dared to investigate since, until now. Gamers will take on the role of a lone explorer tasked with uncovering the truth, surviving nightmarish sea creatures, and finding any signs of life in the silent, watery abyss.
This sequel builds on the premise of the 2019 original Submersed, which received mixed reviews due to its repetitive gameplay. However, Submersed 2 promises a much more refined and intense survival horror experience, embracing a first-person perspective, immersive environments, and tighter mechanics designed to keep players constantly on edge.
The gameplay focuses on exploration, puzzle-solving, and resource management, with players using limited ammo and tools to fend off horrific threats—including mutated monsters and sharks. Trap crafting and stealth tactics will be key to survival in this high-pressure, low-oxygen nightmare.
Submersed 2 – The Hive delivers a claustrophobic atmosphere with dark corridors, flickering lights, and the constant threat of what lurks just beyond sight. The demo available now on Steam gives PC players an early taste of what’s to come—offering a terrifying glimpse into a world where the only escape might be death.
The full version of the game will be released for PC, PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch, making it widely accessible for fans of horror gaming.
If you’re brave enough to dive in, download the demo today and see if you can survive what lies beneath.
