Award-Winning City-Builder Life Below Unveils New Trailer Beneath The Waves

The unique city builder about building an underwater ecosystem shares new information! Check out Life Below as its release draws close to breaking the waves!

Developed by Kasedo Games and Megapop, Life Below is a city builder is a unique take on the city builder genre. Rather than constructing a mega city or village, you instead create an undersea reef under the waves. You support the lives of a variety of sea life that call your underwater ecosystem home.

Despite not releasing yet, Life Below has already won awards for its unique premise. It would be awarded during the 2025 Unity Awards in the Social Impact category. This award was due to the game’s themes on protecting and fostering nature, which impacted the judges as being very socially conscious.

REEFS, SEALIFE, AND MAINTAINING AN ECOSYSTEM

Life Below takes place on a near future earth, where you take responsibility over the development of a reef. Just like in the average city builder, your goal is to grow and expand the reef while bringing in new residents. However, these residents aren’t humans, but rather a variety of different undersea life.

The sea life that you bring in come in many different shapes and sizes, each one having their own of needs. Creatures settled in are viewable through the Wildlife View, letting you see their lives in their biomes. Settling them isn’t easy though, and you will need to take into account multiple hazards and obstacles to care for your reef.

Different biomes and zones have different acidity and temperatures that must be taken into account as you grow your reef. On top of this, hazards can appear, both natural like heatwaves, and unnatural like oil spills. No matter what appears, the life that you cultivate requires a great deal of care and love to truly flourish.
