Overview

  • Released on June 18, 2025, Siren’s Rest picks up ten years after the Beira D rig’s collapse in the Still Wakes the Deep universe.
  • Players assume the role of diver Mhairi tasked with gathering photographic evidence amid the submerged oil rig’s haunting corridors.
  • Critics praised the DLC’s claustrophobic atmosphere and strong voice performances for preserving the base game’s horror intensity.
  • Reviewers identified frequent technical issues and clunky underwater mechanics, including invisible helmets, audio overlaps, and tether clipping.
  • Clocking in at around 90 minutes, the expansion’s short length and abrupt ending have left players seeking more satisfying narrative closure.
