AWARD-WINNING CITY-BUILDER LIFE BELOW UNVEILS NEW TRAILER BENEATH THE WAVES
Leicester UK - 15th December 2025
Kasedo Games and Megapop today unveiled a brand-new gameplay trailer for Life Below, the upcoming underwater city-builder that challenges players to restore and rebuild vibrant marine ecosystems beneath the waves. The latest footage showcases a wide range of core gameplay features, from tackling environmental hazards such as heatwaves and oil spills to restoring damaged coral reefs and upgrading them to thrive. The trailer also introduces the immersive new Wildlife View, allowing players to follow sea creatures as they traverse distinct biomes, offering an intimate perspective on the living ocean world they are helping to heal.
Life Below delivers a fresh and distinctive take on the city-building genre. Set on a near-future Earth where the oceans have been irrevocably changed, players must adapt quickly to new rules of survival. Grow your reef, attract diverse wildlife to increase biodiversity, and carefully evolve entire underwater ecosystems to withstand a constantly shifting tide.
Alongside the trailer reveal, Life Below has been named a Unity Awards 2025 winner. Presented by Unity, the world's most widely used game engine, the Unity Awards celebrate excellence in creativity, technical achievement, and player engagement across the global games industry. Life Below earned top honors in the Social Impact category, recognizing Megapop's long-standing commitment to meaningful, purpose-driven game experiences. Selected by a panel of expert judges, the title stood out as one of the year's most impactful projects, both for its core themes and for the studio's broader portfolio of socially conscious games.
Life Below is coming next year for Windows PC and is available to wishlist now on Steam.
