DERELICT

Night Rocket Productions

Summary

Deep beneath the surface of the ocean, something ancient waits to be unearthed. DERELICT is a gripping science fiction audio drama that begins with FATHOM, a harrowing descent into a secret, corporate-funded research facility built to study a mysterious artifact discovered nineteen thousand feet below sea level. What starts as a high-stakes scientific endeavor quickly spirals into a fight for survival as rogue artificial intelligence, mechanical entities, and the crushing pressure of the deep sea turn the base into a claustrophobic tomb. Beyond the initial mystery of the Vault, the series expands into an evolving, interconnected universe that explores the dark side of corporate ambition and human desperation. You will follow the survivors and mercenaries who realize too late that they are merely expendable pawns in a much larger, more dangerous game. With expert sound design and a cinematic, immersive approach to storytelling, the podcast pulls you into the heart of the action, whether the characters are struggling through flooded corridors, navigating the wreckage of space-faring vessels, or confronting horrors that transcend our understanding of technology. Whether you are listening for the intense psychological thrillers, the intricate world-building, or the haunting questions about what happens when humanity loses control of its own creations, DERELICT delivers a pulse-pounding narrative experience. It is a masterclass in tension, blending high-concept sci-fi with the gritty, visceral reality of people pushed to their absolute limits. If you enjoy stories where the atmosphere is as heavy as the ocean depths, this is a journey you cannot afford to miss.
