Fans of portable video game machines and terrifying descents into fathomless oceanic depths rejoice! Developer Unknown Worlds has announced that its superb underwater survival horror Subnautica – and its still-in-Early-Access sequel, Below Zero – is heading to Switch next year.
Subnautica – if you’ve not yet had the, uh, pleasure – begins as players crash-land on an aquatic alien planet, with nothing but a hunting knife and basic escape pod to their name. What follows is a game of survival, and your first point of order is to ensure you’ve a sufficient supply of food, drinkable water, and – given Subnautica’s diving focus – oxygen to stay alive.
As the game progresses, your scavenging trips open up new avenues of adventure, with new materials enabling the construction of bases, as well as handy vehicles, to facilitate your exploration and, eventually perhaps, your escape.
