Subnautica has officially launched on Android, allowing players to dive into the mysterious depths of planet 4546B. Originally released on PC by Unknown Worlds in 2018, this acclaimed survival adventure game gains new acclaim for its breathtaking underwater exploration and immersive survival elements.
Subnautica: A Survival Adventure Beneath the Waves
You assume the role of Ryley Robinson, the sole survivor of the crashed spaceship Aurora, stranded on an alien ocean world. Forget forests and deserts—your entire world is an endless aquatic expanse filled with bizarre lifeforms.
The game tests your survival skills as you manage oxygen levels while scavenging for resources among coral reefs, volcanic vents, and shadowy caves. Starting with basic struggles for food and water, you'll gradually craft advanced equipment, command submarines, and construct underwater habitats.
A helpful 3D printer and AI companion guide your progress as each dive reveals more about the planet's mysteries and potential escape routes.
The ocean teems with fascinating creatures including Crabsquids, Warpers, Mesmers, Bonesharks, Ampeels, Stalkers, and Crashfish—not to mention the terrifying Leviathan-class predators like Reapers, Sea Dragons, and Ghost Leviathans.
