As you scan more of the same species, behavioural data is added to the database to peruse too.Īt each of the waypoints in Beyond Blue is an activity. Each fish, whale, dolphin and everything else under the sea that you scan is added to a digital collection, the recreation’s of which you can pour over between dives. Train a circle reticle on them and hold down the R1 button and you’ll scan them. A secondary objective is to scan the myriad of aquatic animals that inhabit these environments.
Once you’re identified, they become a waypoint on the map to travel too.īetween these waypoints, it’s not just the scenery to take in. Buoy’s act as waypoint identifying towers – interact with one and you can look around the 360 degree horizon looking for places of interest to tag. The game’s structure is really traditional and little more than moving between waypoints on a map with objectives to complete when you reach each one.

Structurally, Beyond Blue is a collection of open world oceanic areas that you’re free to swim around and explore at your own pace. What she uncovers is worrying and painfully real.īeyond Blue isn’t the most mechanically complex game but its narrative, educational elements and visuals more than makes up for it’s more pedestrian issues. Mirai is the host but is backed up by a pair of scientists Andre and Irina who help her navigate the ocean. In the game, nature documentaries have evolved and there’s now OceanX live streams direct from the sea. Inhabiting a 1-man submarine, Mirai is exploring the ocean and following a pod of Sperm Whales to analyse their lives. You play as scientist and diver Mirai who fell in love with Whales and has dedicated her life to studying them.
