Biart Company, an independent games development studio announced today that its first-person underwater game Depth Hunter 2 is now having its first DLC available on Steam. The DLC introduces the most popular diving spot – the SS Thistlegorm, which has been reconstructed in detail with help of unique underwater equipment.
The SS Thistlegorm was a British armed Merchant Navy ship built in 1940 by Joseph Thompson & Son in Sunderland, England. She was sunk on 6 October 1941 near Ras Muhammad in the Red Sea and is now a well-known diving site.
The second DLC location is an ancient sunken city, where players can try new equipment like an underwater radar and test new game mechanics.
Depth Hunter 2 is a first multiplatform game about underwater extreme sports like spearfishing and free diving. While playing the game, players can feel as real underwater hunters, free divers and explorers of the Ocean’s abyss. The game also offers mechanics like: underwater photo shooting, treasure hunting, quests, etc.
Spearfishing and underwater hunting are ancient fishing and hunting methods, used to catch fish with a mechanical harpoon. Today, spearfishing is a sports activity in many countries around the world, especially in the UK, around the Mediterranean Sea and in South America. Spearfishers hunt while diving apnea, holding their breath, so have to coordinate their energy carefully while monitoring their prey, especially in tactically challenging hunting situations.
Depth Hunter 2: Ocean Mysteries is now available for $4.49 USD and can be ordered from the Steam store at:
