Aquanox: Deep Descent‘s lineage includes 1996’s MS-DOS game Archimedean Dynasty, German: Schleichfahrt, 2001’s AquaNox and 2003’s AquaNox 2: Revelation. It’s a game set in the underwater world in which humanity now lives, having relocated hundreds of years earlier due to a catastrophe on Earth’s surface.

According to Norbert Varga, project lead at developer Digital Arrow: Reaching the main funding goal of the Kickstarter campaign will allow us to create a new Aquanox game of the size and complexity it deserves, for gamers around the globe. At the same time, it also allows us to make its future players an integral part in development decisions surrounding the game at its earliest stages.

Publisher Nordic Games Producer Martin Kreuch: We’ve had long discussions with Digital Arrow about the scope of the game and the transition to Unreal Engine 4. Based on our positive previous experience with Kickstarter (The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 together with the developer KING ART), we firmly believe it is the right platform to help us achieve our joint vision for the future of Aquanox.

The Kickstarter Campaign for Aquanox: Deep Descent will run until September 11, 2015. Currently, 17% of its $75,000 base goal has been raised.
