A video game can be about anything you want it to be, and that includes being about a bunch of people who CLEARLY shouldn’t be operating a submersible craft. In the upcoming Steam title S.O.N.A.R. – Submarine Operators Not Actually Ready by Abylight Barcelona and Abylight Studios, that’s exactly what you and your friends will have to do. Yes. Really. You’ll have to ATTEMPT to work together to figure out how to make it through an underwater landscape in a sub, even though you really don’t know what the heck you’re doing. Fun times!

“S.O.N.A.R. is a 1–4 player online co-op submarine simulator where teamwork is essential, panic is inevitable, and sinking is always just one wrong button away. Coordinate with your crew to operate a cutting- edge submarine through combat operations, stealth infiltrations, and treasure recovery missions. Repair catastrophic malfunctions, recalibrate complex systems, and desperately hope that the person sitting next to you isn’t just randomly pressing buttons.”

Just as a warning…your co-op companions are TOTALLY going to be just pushing buttons to truly sink your chances of survival. So, will you be able to handle the absolutely dangerous missions that lie before you? Or will you be going down with the underwater ship? While you ponder that, check out these features for the game:

• Locate hostile vessels and send them to the bottom of the sea. Preferably before they do the same to you.
• Protect valuable cargo ships. Because apparently the military couldn’t find anyone else to babysit them.
• Hunt for treasures. Search the ocean floor for lost riches, forgotten artifacts, and evidence of previous crews’ poor decisions.
• Slip past enemy destroyers undetected. Stay quiet. Stay hidden. And whatever you do, don’t sneeze.

No release date for the title has been given as of yet.
