Skin Deep is a first-person shooter science fiction video game developed by Blendo Games and published by Annapurna Interactive, released on 30 April 2025 for Windows. The game follows an open-ended structure, heavily influenced by immersive sim mechanics, which allows players to approach missions using various playstyles. The player assumes the role of Nina Pasadena, an "insurance commando" who is cryogenically stored aboard various starships as a security measure. When space pirates hijack a vessel and trigger a silent alarm, Nina is awakened from stasis and must navigate the environment using a variety of stealth, combat, and environmental interactions to neutralize the threat.
