Unknown Worlds revealed that Subnautica: Below Zero will be published in partnership with Bandai Namco, which will distribute the physical edition in the US, EMEA, and Japan. It’ll be available on Switch as a physical bundle which will combine both Subnautica (which wasn’t on Nintendo’s console previously) and Below Zero for $59.99.
Nice and icy
In Subnautica: Below Zero, players will still be exploring Planet 4546B, except time has moved on a year since the original, and they’ll be struggling to survive in an icy world (as the title indicates).
There’s an all-new storyline with its own mysteries and nuances, plus new tech to craft and more base building options, not to mention a whole load of new creatures and other stuff to encounter in the deep icy depths.
Ted Gill, President of Unknown Worlds, notes that the game has been continuously shaped and evolved going by feedback from the community of Steam Early Access players. Gill enthused: “After two years of implementing player feedback and adding new features and content, we’re excited to welcome players back to the depths of Planet 4546B to find an all-new experience on PC and console.”
The original Subnautica makes the cut for our roundup of the best survival games, not least because it offers such a polished and compelling survival experience.
