Subnautica & Subnautica: Below Zero

Do your best to survive in an alien ocean in Unknown Worlds Entertainment’s Subnautica. This open world survival game released a few years ago on other platforms to a very positive reception. 

As if the first game wasn’t enough, the follow-up called Subnautica: Below Zero will also come to the Switch. The game takes place on the same planet, but in an arctic zone of freezing cold temperatures and icebergs. You’re probably wondering why this doesn’t change the name of the article from five to six, but just consider this a bonus game as a thanks for reading.

Get over your fear of small spaces and being underwater (or is that just me?), Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero arrive on the Switch sometime in 2021.
