Beyond Blue is an exploratory adventure game, the action of which has been placed in the oceanic depths. The player takes on the role of the head of a research group which, with the help of modern gadgets, explores submarine abysses.
Beyond Blue, released on PS4, PC and XONE, is a third-person exploration game developed by E-Line, the developers of Never Alone platformer, presenting the beliefs of the Inuit from Alaska. Just like the adventures of the little girl and her polar fox, this production was also produced in close collaboration with a number of experts, including leading oceanographers working on the BBC's documentary Blue Planet II.
In the near future, the depths of the oceans still remain a mystery for people. Huge, unexplored areas of the Earth covered with water equally fascinate with their beauty and arouse fear of the unknown. We play as Mirai, the female leader of a newly established research group, who was given the task of exploring the underwater world. The team will do that by using highly advanced technology.
In Beyond Blue, we observe our diver from the third-person perspective. During the exploration, we observe aquatic creatures, among which we can find powerful whales, squids, rays, sea turtles or lonely predators hunting for agile shoals of smaller fish. One of the gadgets that allow you to see the underwater world is a camera that displays the underwater landscape in different ranges of the visible light spectrum.

Game Ratings for Beyond Blue Video Game.
Wccftech: 8.2 / 10 by Rosh Kelly
Beyond Blue does exactly what it set out to do. It isn't trying to compete with action oriented games but instead focuses on a part of our world so often overlooked to create an incredible sense of place, beauty, and conservation out of the people playing it.
GamingTrend: 70 / 100
Beyond Blue isn't going to be for everyone. If you're after action and excitement, this isn't going to be for you. It's a slow but rather peaceful experience and I was pretty relaxed while playing though. Imagine Subnautica in creative mode, minus the building elements, and imagine David Attenborough is narrating it. You can add or subtract a few points depending on how interested you are personally in ocean studies.
Destructoid: 7 / 10 by Jordan Devore
I appreciate that the story gave me plenty of reasons to care about Mirai and enough quiet space to shake off some stress among the waves. It's a contemplative journey, one I can't help but recommend.
