Jujubee Games Studio has announced that KURSK will be playable for the first time at this year’s Gamescom trade fair in Cologne. In addition, the team has released a new set of screenshots for KURSK that can be viewed below.
As the press release reads, the showcase starts on August 17, 2016 for the press and on August 18, 2016 for the general public (Gamescom Entertainment Section, Hall 10, Aisle A-019).
KURSK is described as the first proper adventure-documentary game in history. The game will tell the tragic story of the submarine that sank to the bottom of the Barents Sea on August 12, 2000 with all 118 crew members on board.
The plot of the game will be mostly based on facts, thanks to which players will have the opportunity to learn more about the dramatic story of the vessel.
Michal St?pien, CEO of Jujubee, said:
“This is the first time we will ever show actual materials from the game. No one before had a chance to see the game in motion, and not even a single screenshot or footage was ever published.”
Enjoy!

interesting concept. 🙂
But did anyone survive that catastrophe? I mean, didn’t they all die inside even surviving after the explosion?
Are you reffering to the game or the actual disaster that struck the submarine Kursk?
If you mean the latter then no, nobody survived. Some died in the initial explosion, some perished because of the fire that got ignited and some probably suffocated due to lack of oxygen (as a result of said fire).
I was kind of reffering to both. Because, yes, as you say, in the actual disaster nobody survived… but this is based on real facts and it’s a *survival* game. I mean, unless you die at the end, they must have changed the outcome, like, you getting out of that submarine somehow and being the only survivor.
Need more games like that. Slept the whole history course in high school 🙁
first person survival horror genre is pure cancer
Cancer would be a bit strong. I would say waaaay overdone. While the first person perspective seems the most fitting for the survival horror genre seeing as it is the most effective for drawing the player in. I still yearn for a games like the older resident evil and silent hills.
I remember how frustrated i was with first person zombie themed shooters couple years ago, this is basically the same thing, except this time this genre has a massive audience and i don’t see it disappear any time soon, I’d rather find my old copy of suffering and play that game on windows xp instead of the new resident evil game
True that however this one is an adventure game, not a horror.
This looks like a game I can get into. Looking forward to hearing more about it.
For most iconic and immersive experience you need to suffer from claustrophobia and play this game in VR.
Kursk,What the name is this?From celeb battle tanks?
Why not Kharkov?Same russian names.
Give us a new Stalker like game,not this Doom or Alien-like game.
Read up on the submarine Kursk, then it will make sense to you.
Looks pretty interesting.
