Deep Vector
Depth. Strategy. Dominance.
A tactical 3D submarine combat RPG. Track enemies on sonar, outmanoeuvre them in momentum-heavy duels and strip their wrecks for parts to build a deadlier boat.
Overview
About Deep Vector
Descend into the dark and take command of your submarine in Deep Vector, a tactical underwater combat game where positioning beats reflexes and silence is an equally powerful weapon.
Track enemies through sonar, outmanoeuvre them in tense momentum-based engagements, and choose your moment to strike with a devastating arsenal of sonic, electric and explosive weaponry. Encounters reward patience and reading the fight over twitch reactions — this is naval chess, not an arcade shooter.
Return to your station to repair, craft new gear from salvaged materials, and upgrade your loadout with loot pulled from the wrecks you leave behind. Earn credits and experience, unlock new weapons and hull configurations, and push deeper into hostile waters as your submarine — and your reputation — grows.
Stealth, sonar information and split-second tactical decisions define every dive. Do you have what it takes to hunt in the dark?
- 01
Sonar is your eyes
Track contacts through sonar and stealth. Positioning and patience beat twitch reflexes — this is naval chess, not an arcade shooter.
- 02
Sonic, electric & explosive arsenals
Electric lances shred shields up close, sonic beams punish from range, while railguns, torpedoes, mines, turrets and depth charges cover everything in between.
- 03
Salvage, craft, upgrade
Strip the wrecks you leave behind, dock at your station to repair and craft, then fit new modules in the Engineering Bay.
- 04
Climb the fleet
Earn credits and experience to unlock bigger hulls — from the starter boat to frigates, destroyers, cruisers and carriers.
