About the Game

Descend into the Deep

The tide brought something back. Beneath the waves, the water churns with mutated horrors and you're the only thing standing between the surface and the swarm. MutantTide is a deep sea horror bullet heaven: survive relentless waves of nightmarish sea-creatures, harvest their remains, and evolve into an unstoppable engine of destruction before the abyss swallows you whole.

Survive the Swarm

Face down hundreds of enemies at once in fast, frantic runs. Every wave brings more creatures, deadlier mutations, and a rising tension that never lets up. How long can you last before the deep takes you?

Evolve Your Arsenal

  • 20 base weapons, each with its own upgrade path and distinct feel.

  • Elemental infusion — charge your weapons with elemental power for devastating on-hit effects.

  • Weapon evolutions — master a weapon to transform it into something far deadlier.

Ten Survivors, One Doomed Ocean

Play as 10 unique characters, each with their own playstyle, across multiple treacherous stages. Unlock permanent upgrades through deep meta-progression, chase 34 achievements, and climb the leaderboards to prove you're the last one standing.

Grab a Friend

Dive in together with local co-op or play with friends anywhere via Remote Play Together. The deep is a little less lonely with someone watching your back.
