LEG C Walkthrough - Still Wakes the Deep Guide - IGN (2024)

Having survived the event, this walkthrough guide will help you navigate through LEG C as you attempt to return to the Accommodation floor. This Still Wakes the Deep guide also provides handy interactive checkmarks for all missable trophies and achievements that you can find within this area.

Find a Way Through Engineering

To find a way through Engineering, you must climb around the LEG room to get to the exit. To get started, head down the stairs––you can look over the edge to find more of that strange creature below— and then climb down two sets of ladders, which can be found nearby.

Once you’ve climbed down, use the beams above to cross the gap and climb up the next yellow ladder. If you missed the last opportunity, you can also fall to your death here for the Finlay Destination trophy.

Look to the wall from here, climb up the makeshift ladder, and shimmy across to the ledge above.

Now, follow the path forward, pick up the light from atop the crate, and enter through the door.

Upon opening the door, activate your torch and turn right. Head down the stairs and navigate the flooded corridor, where you’ll soon begin to hear some creepy sounds in the distance.

When reaching an opening, continue up the stairs and crouch as you head through another corridor.

At the end, you can enter a small vent to your right. After crawling through it, turn left and crawl through the next vent.

After exiting the vent, you’ll find a hard hat on the ground nearby that has been left behind.

Now, go through the next set of doors, and you’ll enter a cutscene with Finlay, who will share that those noises are coming from Gibbo, who got some kind of oil on himself during the explosion and has since not been acting right.

Escape Through the Water Tanks

Needing to get back to the Accommodation deck, Finlay informs Caz that he’ll need to travel through the water tanks below to escape this floor, but warns you to avoid Gibbo at all costs.

To escape, travel down the stairs opposite Finlay and follow the path through the water tanks until you reach a ladder.

Climb up, and you’ll spot a body partially consumed by the mysterious material inside the cabin.

Unable to pass through the door to your left, turn right and jump down to the exit below.

Now, continue through the exit corridor until you reach the end—along the way, a ladder will drop down, but there’s nothing up there, just a creepy amount of blood and another hard hat.

Find the Three Steam Values and Close Them

Continuing down the corridor, you’ll encounter three busted steam values. You can also perform another unique death opportunity by standing in the steam.

You’ll need to find and close all three steam valves to escape. To start, turn the yellow valve to your left to shut down the first busted valve.

Then, climb down the nearby ladder and turn the next yellow valve beside the ladder.

Now, climb the ladder and find the third and final valve when reaching the top.

Once the steam has cleared, return to the start of the area. Now, follow the path and crawl beneath the fallen metal object blocking the way forward.

In this small room, you’ll find a Ladder Release along the wall—pull this lever to lower the ladder.

Climb Up to Get to the Water Tanks

Upon climbing the ladder, activate your flashlight and climb up the metal beams on the wall, which act as a makeshift ladder.

At the top, shimmy across the gap to the other side and enter the door — as you shimmy across, a can will crash to the ground, and if you watch closely, you’ll see a mysterious shadow heading towards its location.

Inside the room, you’ll find an Engineering Map on the wall, showing the Water Tanks on the other side of the door. Simply make it through that room, and you’ll reach the exit to Accommodation—what could possibly go wrong?

When you’re ready, open the door and follow the path right, where you’ll soon begin to experience the same visual impairments that seem to occur when you’re too close to the creepy veins of the creature.

Just before you round the corner, you’ll overhear some yelling in the distance. Freaked out by the sound, quickly hide in the nearby yellow locker in the corner.

Once the sound is gone, leave the locker, slowly crouch forward through the water, and squeeze through the gap to your right. The key to navigating the Water Tanks room is to follow the yellow pipes, which will lead you through the room as you attempt to reach the exit.

On the other side, crouch again and continue forward, where you’ll soon find another section you can squeeze between to your left.

After squeezing through, vault over the yellow pipe and squeeze through the next section marked in yellow. Now, continue following the path as you crouch beneath some pipes, then squeeze through two more tight sections.

Once you’ve jumped down to the ground, head left and follow the path as you crouch under some pipes and briefly swim beneath some water. When you come out the other side, head up the stairs and follow the path left.

At the end, you’ll find a ladder you can climb.

When reaching the top, open the nearby latch and climb down the ladder, and you’ll experience a short cutscene where you can catch a quick glimpse of Gibbo.

At the bottom, squeeze through the wall gap and climb up the ladder on the other side after moving Douglas out of the way.

After climbing up the ladder, head down the steps, jump to the ground below, and head straight toward the stairs in the distance. A map on the wall shows you have reached the exit to Accommodation.

To leave the room, climb up the stairs and exit through the door once you reach the top.
