Deli Interactive have released a large new update to their cooperative exploration roguelite, We Need To Go Deeper.

The Awakened update is primarily focused on the new Awakened Mode. This hardcore mode features permadeath, so anyone who dies in the mode can no longer be revived. The update also adds new enemies, pets, and the Acolyte rank. You can read more about the update here.

You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:

DIVE. DISCOVER. DIE. Crew a submarine with friends in We Need To Go Deeper – a 2-4-player cooperative submarine roguelike set in a Verne-inspired undersea universe.

2-4-Player Online Co-op
