Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1/day in the week to Aug 10 → 5.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Franchement, un super jeu qui aborde un sujet assez rare : [spoiler] le deuil [/spoiler]. La zone de jeu est vaste, avec un vrai sentiment d’exploration. On aime s’y perdre et découvrir chaque recoin. L’écosystème et la faune sont crédibles, ce qui renforce l’immersion dans ce monde sous‑marin. Le sous‑marin se manœuvre plutôt bien, même si la caméra peut parfois devenir capricieuse dans les espaces confinés. L’histoire est [b] touchante [/b], portée par des thèmes forts comme [b] l’écologie [/b] et une critique subtile des multinationales du secteur pétrolier. Un jeu qui marque autant par son ambiance que par son message.
Parliamo di Under The Waves. Ci sono giochi che ti fanno salvare il mondo. Altri che ti fanno sconfiggere divinità. Under the Waves, invece, ti chiede qualcosa di molto più difficile: accettare il dolore. Ed è proprio per questo che rimane addosso. Il mare: non un'ambientazione, ma uno stato d'animo L'oceano non è semplicemente bello. È immenso. Silenzioso. Soffocante. Confortante. Terrificante. Può farti sentire completamente libero... oppure incredibilmente solo. Ogni immersione sembra riflettere quello che succede nella mente del protagonista. Più scendi nelle profondità, più hai l'impressione di stare scendendo anche dentro la sua coscienza. Gameplay: la calma dopo la tempesta Non aspettarti combattimenti frenetici. Non aspettarti esplosioni. Qui esplori. Raccogli materiali. Ripari impianti. Nuoti. Osservi la fauna marina. Ascolti il silenzio. È un ritmo volutamente lento. Quasi meditativo. Ed è proprio quella lentezza a permettere alla storia di respirare. Il vero viaggio è interiore Il protagonista, Stan, non sta semplicemente lavorando sul fondo dell'oceano. Sta cercando di sfuggire a qualcosa. O meglio... A qualcuno. Il mare diventa il rifugio perfetto. Perché nelle profondità non ci sono persone. Non ci sono ricordi che parlano. C'è soltanto silenzio. Ma il silenzio ha una caratteristica crudele: prima o poi ti costringe ad ascoltare te stesso. Il messaggio: il lutto non si supera. Si attraversa. La cosa più bella di Under the Waves è che non racconta una favola. Non dice che il dolore scompare. Non promette che il tempo guarisca automaticamente ogni ferita. Racconta qualcosa di molto più umano. Quando perdi qualcuno che ami, una parte di te rimane sommersa. Puoi fingere che non esista. Puoi scendere sempre più in profondità pur di non affrontarla. Ma nessun oceano è abbastanza profondo da nascondere il dolore per sempre. L'unico modo per tornare a respirare è attraversarlo. Accettarlo. Portarlo con sé. Non dimenticare. Ma continuare a vivere. È un messaggio semplice. E proprio per questo potentissimo. Colonna sonora e atmosfera Musiche delicate. Colori freddi. Luci soffuse. Ogni elemento sembra costruito per accompagnare il protagonista nel suo lento percorso di guarigione. È uno di quei giochi che raramente alza la voce. Sussurra. E spesso i sussurri restano impressi più delle urla. Difetti Gameplay piuttosto semplice Alcune attività risultano ripetitive Ritmo molto lento, non adatto a tutti Qualche meccanica un po' grezza Sintesi finale Under the Waves non è un gioco che cerca di stupirti. Cerca di parlarti. È un viaggio malinconico nelle profondità dell'oceano e, soprattutto, nelle profondità dell'animo umano. La sua forza non sta nelle meccaniche. Sta nel significato. Nel ricordarci che il dolore non è un nemico da sconfiggere. È una parte della nostra storia. E imparare a convivere con esso non significa dimenticare chi abbiamo perso. Significa concedersi il permesso di riemergere. Di tornare lentamente verso la superficie. Di respirare ancora. Perché perfino dopo gli abissi più oscuri, il mare continua a riflettere la luce del sole. E, qualche volta, anche chi pensava di essere perduto riesce a ritrovare la strada verso di essa.

操作简直一坨，游泳动不动卡住，然后就什么也做不了，怪不得打折，纯垃圾
В целом игра понравилась. Больше всего впечатлило музыкальное оформление — особенно приятно было услышать шанти Drunken Sailor (отсылка к Assassin’s Creed). История получилась эмоциональной: легко проникнуться судьбой героя и прочувствовать драматизм сюжета. С учётом того, что я купила игру со скидкой 95 % за 100 ₽, она кажется очень достойной, но платить за неё 2000 ₽ я бы не стала.
[h1]☆_Review in deutsch & english!_☆[/h1] [h1]Under The Waves ist ein unerwartetes und großartiges Meisterwerk![/h1] In ,,Under The Waves" erlebt man die Geschichte von Stan, einen professionellen Taucher in der Nordsee. Die Geschichte ist spannend und entwickelt sich sehr emotional. Ebenfalls bietet das Spiel eine große Unterwasserwelt mit vielen Erkundungsmöglichkeiten, wie Höhlen, Wracks, verschiedenen Gebieten und Tieren. Ich hatte beim Kauf nicht gedacht, dass das Spiel so wunderschön ist. Die Steuerung ist mit dem Gamepad sehr gelungen und zu empfehlen. Die Grafik in ultra HD ist gestochen scharf und wunderschön. Die Welt unter Wasser ist detailliert und großartig gestaltet worden. Sie wirkt sehr authentisch. Die Hintergrundmusik und Sounds passen sehr zum Spiel und hören sich sehr klar an. Genial! Die Vertonung der Charakter wirken sehr authentisch und es ist ein Genuss diese Geschichte mit den Sprechern zu erleben. Das Spiel fesselt einen immer mehr, dank der großartigen Geschichte. Die Errungenschaften sind nicht schwer und alle gut zu erspielen. Wichtig ist alles sehr genau zu erkunden und oft das Sonar benutzen, um die Sammelgegenstände auf der Karte zu sehen und zu finden. Für die letzten Errungenschaften, muss man auch nicht das ganze Spiel noch einmal spielen, weil der letzte Speicherpunkt vor dem letzten Kapitel liegt. Ich habe das Spiel im Angebot für 1,95€ gekauft. Ich empfehle das Spiel! Top. --------------------------------------------------- [h1]Under The Waves is an unexpected and magnificent masterpiece![/h1] In "Under The Waves," you experience the story of Stan, a professional diver in the North Sea. The story is gripping and unfolds in a deeply emotional way. The game also offers a vast underwater world with plenty of opportunities for exploration, including caves, shipwrecks, diverse areas, and wildlife. I hadn't expected the game to be so beautiful when I bought it. The gamepad controls are excellent and highly recommended. The Ultra HD graphics are razor-sharp and stunning. The underwater world is richly detailed and magnificently designed. It feels incredibly authentic. The background music and sound effects suit the game perfectly and offer great audio clarity. Brilliant! The voice acting feels very authentic, and experiencing the story with these voice actors is a real treat. The game draws you in more and more, thanks to its fantastic story. The achievements aren't difficult and are all easily obtainable. The key is to explore thoroughly and use the sonar frequently to spot and locate collectibles on the map. You don't have to play the entire game again for the final achievements, because the last save point is located before the final chapter. I bought the game on sale for €1.95. I highly recommend this game! Top.
This and Uevr with Rusty Gere mod/profile is utter brilliant. So far the best experience i have had with UEVR for flat games. The game comes so much more alive, all the small things are visible and its a joy to play. You need mild vr legs already though.
This was a super good game 10/10 legit made me emotional at the end like rdr2
Excellent jeu! Très chill et court! Dommage pas de nudiste dans l'eau cependant...
It is an experience. Sad story in where we all can find a place. Thank you for this game.
Very "mid". The game is most story-oriented, but the slow and very annoying, repetitive gameplay still takes a lot of time. You can't pick things up without exiting your submersible and the controls are clunky. The storyline does not tie up many of the loose ends, the only one that it does tie up is the protagonist's trauma. Speaking of trauma - I found it hard to empathise with the main characters for several reasons. First being the lack of facial animation, proper lipsync (in 2025 game really?) or any kind of buildup. You are thrown into the storyline with the premise of the character having suffered a loss that leaves him in a semi-delirious state and that is all you ever know about him. None of his actual personality is revealed, save for his wife trying to talk sense into him over the phone. Only way to emphathise with the guy with this kind of premise is having suffered a similar trauma yourself, which hopefully nobody would ever have to, so a game could not have been written with that expectation. Overall, as I got it on sale, I will still recommend the game mostly for the unique setting and the phenomenal music. And the seal. Honestly the seal is the only thing I actually felt any emotion for in this game - because he got properly introduced, and had us interact with it for a good portion of the game, it brings us trash to collect and is just cute. Unlike [spoiler]the protagonist's dead daughter that we only ever know from his hallucinations.[/spoiler]
