May 20, 2020Incredible open world survival game. The gameplay is very creative considering you're under water for 95% of the game. The world is beautiful and terrifying at the same time. The creatures are unique. The story is well told, and the game does not hold your hand through it. This game is a must have for people who enjoy survival horror games.

Jan 17, 2022아직 절차적 생성에는 부족한 점이 많다는걸 깨달은 작품. 어디든지 갈수있지만 산소량의 한계로 레벨에 따라 자연스럽게 잠수의 한계를 구현한게 좋았다. 수중공포증을 가진 내가 그걸 이겨가면서까지 몰입하게한 작품.

Jan 13, 2020this game is worth the money, you get hours of exploration and some scares thrown in for what 19.99 USD. I would buy it for more like 40 USD and still be happy, I will say one thing to anyone that buys this game, your paying below AAA price of 60 USD so you won't a endless experience buy it is still a must have. i finished the game in about 11 hours, mostly just exploring and running.

Jun 4, 2023My favorite survival, the exploration is very well built and discovering the planet is very cool
-
Feb 1, 2020This game was capable to make me love it despite how much I despise the survival genre - or at least, the entries this genre has.
It was truly a great journey, capable of make me feel strong emotions every time I discovered a new species or a new biome. It was no small feat, due to my pair of decades of gaming! -
Feb 3, 2020Amazing game, really captured my attention and kept it with in game progression and the threats that kept popping up. The game still has a number of bugs none of which really hinder your gameplay just some immersion. If that is fixed this game will be a solid 10/10
-
Feb 4, 2020I really enjoyed this game, fun open world. The gameplay is awesome and enjoyable, the visuals are spectacular. I would highly recommend this game. Can't wait to play the next one. Well done Devs!!
I would like to see more endgame content as when I finally got the cool stuff the game was almost over. -
Feb 4, 2020A refreshing take on the survival game formula, with great athmosphere, beautiful visuals and a breathtaking sound design, both in its soundtrack and audio design of the world. Absolutely recommended!
-
May 6, 2020interesting story, addictive gameplay. There are a significant number of errors, but the game is excellent. I recommend to buy
-
Mar 26, 2020Makes you want to say NOOO when it ends.
Take your time and explore i'd say.
One of the best immersive,open-world game i've seen. -

May 16, 2020Мне игра понравилась! 9 балов ставлю за слабую оптимизацию на ps 4: игра проседает привсплытии на поверхность, так же есть артефакты на базе, коих я не видел на компьютере.

Sep 3, 2022Awesome game. A must play. Scary and beautiful wold. So much to do and so much to see.
-
Jun 22, 2020This game is awesome! I love the story and the gameplay is really captivating.
I definitely recommend playing through the whole game. It doesn't take that long and it's worth it at the end.
I LOVE Subnautica! -
Oct 10, 2021Отличная игра, мой ребёнок просто в восторге. Нам очень интересно было проходить эту увлекательную историю
Great game, my child absolutely love it. It was very interesting for us to go through this fascinating story. -

Oct 7, 2020Masterpiece!
I wish it could have co-op mode one day!
This game reminds me of my first game on my first pc. The game was called "Shark! Hunting the Great White" that gave me unforgettable extreme underwater experience.
This is quite the same by mechanics but has hole living interactive universe that takes few days away from your life. Maybe even more than that! -
Jun 5, 2022I rarely give 10/10 scores. The sense of awe and exploration is like BOTW, but with a feeling of isolation that’s both zen-like calm and terrifying at times. Saying too much will spoil the numerous discoveries scattered through the game. I almost wish I could forget the game just to I can experience it for the first time again. This is a 100% must-play.
-
Jul 23, 2020Really good game, with a good ambience and sound. Truly immersive.
Nice crafting system and a good map to explore.
Impressive for a indie game. -
Aug 3, 2020one of the best surviving experiences that i ever had! thank you sooooo much for making this game
-
Aug 14, 2020Deniz ortamında geçen en iyi açık dünya oyunlarından birisi olabilir. Lakin keşke hikaye, görev sistemine biraz daha abansalarmış :) Tek eksiği sanırım Multiplayer olmaması varsa da biri aydınlatsın lütfen.
-
Aug 18, 2020Very good and intresting game, i like it. Not bad graphic. a little story campaign, but its survival game, and its okay for this genre.
-
May 3, 2021It’s by far the best survival game I’ve ever played.it’s even better than Minecraft . It’s awesome.
-
Sep 7, 2022Its just as great as the original. Other than the occasional engine based bug and the severe lack of direction at some points its a masterpiece.
-
Jul 14, 2021One of the best open world survival games out there it is also very creapy!

Dec 3, 2020One of the first games that I had finished in a long time. The open world is very nice, along with the game play mechanics. I would recommend this game to anyone who doesn't have a major fear of water.

Apr 15, 2021Very good survival game, it has an immersive atmosphere and lots of things to do and places to explore. Definetely recommended, one of my favourite survival games.
Muy buen juego de supervivencia. Tiene una muy buena e inmersiva atmosfera y muchas cosas que hacer y lugares que explorar. Definitivamente recomendado, uno de mis juegos de supervivencia favoritos. -
Jun 21, 2022positive: very atmospheric graphics and music / much to discover / lot's of hours of gameplay
negative: for me personally the terrifying elements when you dive deeper are a bit of a turn-off but I can relate to people liking it -

Apr 22, 2021New way of open world crafting games. Has its good sides but generally a mediocre game.
-
May 21, 2021this game is awesome, I spent a lot of time on it, the graphics are really impressive, the game has opened up the vast ocean world.
-
May 5, 2021One of the best survival games I've ever played. It provides a really unique experience. Definitely recommend it.
-
May 12, 2021Best open-world I have played in about a year. And best indie title for almost a decade! Great atmosphere, great graphics, attention to detail. Amazing what this little studio did with a small budget, compared to "the big guys". They made a competitive shooter called "Natural Selection 2" as well - be sure to check it out if you like fast-paced FPS action. :-)

May 27, 2021A beautiful game, with a great gameplay and very adictictif, be aware :)
One of the game of the year for me, a very good experience, everyone should play it once in his life. -
Jun 8, 2021Wordless, awesome gameplay, full-featured exploration, great soundtrack, very well-planned plot, this is a type of game that people love and are addicted to this game. ,it's something unique, something I've never felt so much pleasure in playing, just amazing.Congratulations to the developers, this is something that I have the great and unique pleasure of calling a real game.

Mar 17, 2022My one of my favorite game of all time
Amazing 10/10
uh so this one time I was going trying to find diamonds an the moutain island and I got so scared by the sea emp saying What... are... you? i ran to a roommate for emotional support
yet again 10/10 amazing -
Sep 17, 2021Subnautica is a great take on the survival genre with a great mixture of horror as well.
-
Sep 19, 2021Nie umiem tego ująć słowami. Po prostu w to zagraj i nie zauważysz gdy na liczniku czasu spędzonego w grze przebijesz 365 dni. Najlepsza gra na świecie

Apr 18, 2022this is the best survival game i have ever played. it is very fun and replayable. i completed the game 5 times by now and i could complete it the 6th time. the only bad thing about it are the weird bugs that appear at random but they arent a big deal. overall a must buy
-
Oct 4, 2021This game is one of the iconic steam games in my opinion. Atmosphere in Sub Nautica is incredible and terrifying. This game has major technical issues however that ruined my first playthrough of this game. Another issue is the lack of direction in this game. I would recommend using a guide if you want to play this game.
-
May 13, 2022Maybe the best survival and best aquarium/reef/diving game. So many creative things to do.
Today there should be more graphic details sets. Creating manual detail config is very uncomfortable.
Maybe they could have names: "Ultra2022,..." -
Oct 12, 2021This is probably the best survival game you can get, and for me one of the greatest games of all time.

Nov 9, 2021I just can literary cry when I play this game. It’s so beautiful, full of adventures, some times really creepy. Love it with all my heart!
-
Apr 14, 2022Игра кривовата во всем, кроме самостоятельного функционирования мира. Да и жанр в целом не мой, видимо.
-
Nov 15, 2021Если вы, как я, боитесь глубины, то для вас это хоррор игра. Я до мурашек боялся заплывать глубже - но сюжет заставляет делать это.

Nov 16, 2021Not very scary. Also gets really boring over time and there is very little to do outside of the story.

Dec 24, 2021This game is a legend. I am kindda sad because the below zero doesnt link with their og game. The game would be perfect if they would add a image with the planet where the main character landed. i can t wait for the next subnautica.

Jan 20, 2022Great game atmosphere and soundtrack is something with something, then. Fear of spiders I have developed I understand this is one thing some things just take horror when you are a small insect coming and in the normal game you are not afraid, and you in this straight … No words at all.

Jan 21, 2023Update, actually, meh. After the engine merge with below zero, some issues faults and poor design was brought to the OG.
This is in addition to previously existing problems. Step 1, make a good game. Step 2, make a **** sequel etc. Step 3, implement the bad from the sequel into the original= ??? -
Jun 20, 2022This game is amazing. Underwater world looks really massive, beautifull and scary in the same time. Plot is enough good. Two main problems are grinding and bugs. I strongly recommend it.

Mar 21, 2022Poucas vezes na vida fui tão surpreendido positivamente num jogo. É incrível, envolvente, leve, divertido e surpreendente. Não tive nenhuma experiência negativa e a história é sensacional. Eu espero muito que essa empresa continue produzindo jogos com tamanho primor. Nota máxima.

Jun 23, 2022It's a very good game, but it's very poorly optimized. I played it on my PC and XBOX, on both, when I set up my base and look at it, the game hits 22 fps on PC and 15 fps on series x. Also, the game has a lot of loading popups. And I think the story could be easier to understand, not necessarily needing to read and look for the PDA's

Sep 3, 2022A game made by an indie studio,
With it bugs and issues its still an amazing game and an achievement by such a small studio. Thank you Unknown Worlds for making this game, you're amazing. -
Sep 12, 2022very good 10/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Sep 14, 2022After 125 hours played in this open-world game, i have discovered something new every time, this game its perfect for people who is looking for a non scary game but yes for a game that gives you goosebumps. The music is perfect, and the story its interesting but not necessary. One of the most underrated games, almost in the last 10 years.

Dec 7, 2018It isn’t without performance hiccups, especially the deeper you go. But the breadth of content here and the open-world nature both in terms of playspace and just pure choice in how you go about it is something rarely seen in games.
-
CD-ActionMay 16, 2018Subnautica is hands down the best survival game I have ever experienced. I completely lost track of time while playing it and for the first time in ages I rescheduled my appointments and neglected my responsibilities to spend more time with a game. If I could I would hand out free copies in the streets so as many people as possible can see how ridiculously good Subnautica is. [04/2018, p.62]
-
May 10, 2018A great game that took five years to make. Subnautica is an open sandbox sci-fi fantasy that can inch it's way into horror as you explore the depths of the ocean world. Just be ready to farm!
