I’ve been counting the days until Beyond Blue‘s PC and console release since it showed up on Apple Arcade back in April. This soothing, somber, immersive oceanic adventure game just seemed like something I’d want to experience on a larger screen, you know? I’m glad I held off for the PC version.

It’s not the best the absolute genre has ever seen – Endless Ocean and Subnautica still top that list for me – but there’s a lot of merit to its education-focused approach, and the swimming is gratifying.

E-Line Media collaborated with BBC Studios, Blue Planet II, and OceanX, so not only will you get to go on chill dives, you’ll also have a chance to watch documentary footage and interviews with scientists and activists that reflect what you’ve been up to in the game. Our boy James Cameron even shows up!
