Gameplay

What is Subnautica Below Zero? It is an extensive expansion pack that requires the base game to run. Embark on the adventure of a lifetime and discover the additional content of the base game that is a separate, brilliant story! Relive the journey on 4546B and discover places and secrets you had no idea existed before.

The goal is to survive. The Arctic conditions on this planet are certainly not helpful. Fortunately, you have the resources and skills to successfully stand up to the harsh circumstances of the environment. Explore, gather resources, and craft the most necessary items. Raise shelters, construct bases and use the equipment in your inventory. Explore the planet by vehicle! Search the icy surface areas or put on your suit and dive into the depths of the endless ocean. Build a hoverbike and mech to travel the ice desert even faster. And be sure to constantly monitor your character's body temperature. You don't just have to work all the time - from time to time it's a clever idea to sit back and have a cup of hot coffee.

Explore the infinity of underwater depths. Investigate undiscovered locations, identify unknown species of fauna and flora, and avoid dangers. Even the most adorable creature on the planet can turn out to be the most vicious predator. Don't be fooled by appearances, be careful and pay close attention to the enchanting underwater world and the rules by which the life cycle unfolds here.

Uncover the secrets of an ancient alien civilization. Explore ruins and mystical remains. Examine the stations abandoned by the researchers and conduct an investigation. Discover what happened to your sister and other people who have ever inhabited this planet. The hostile world of this alien planet is gorgeous but also full of unexplored secrets. It is up to you whether they will be discovered.
