Descend into the depths, craft equipment, pilot submarines and out-smart wildlife to explore lush coral reefs, volcanoes, cave systems, and more - all while trying to survive.

Venture deeper and further to find rarer resources, allowing you to craft more advanced items. • CRAFT – Build bases to shelter in, vehicles to pilot, tools for survival to aid you in navigating and adapting to this subaquatic landscape. • DISCOVER – What happened to this planet? What caused you to crash?

this is the best experience possible
- Sandhya Sarkar · v1.22.83416
I absolutely adored this game and about 8 years ago I watched a famous YouTube guy play it. Thrilling and has an incredible story. Save often to avoid bad stuff!! This game is quite challenging for young children. You need many skills that aren't just handed to you in game. Time management, balancing cargo limits, battery life, and ALOT of multitasking but that in itself makes it more immersing. True survival. 5 stars from me 8 years ago and 5 now. Thank you for adding it to the Playstore!!

It deserves more stars but i can give only 5.

It's very good, but most times I don't know where to go or what I'm meant to do.
- Ma0r1Quiin · v1.22.83416

- Aakash Pise · v1.22.83416
pritty good subnautica below zero still wins for me though it's really fun also I can't wait for subnautica 2 and multi-player in sub 2
- Warren Cole · v1.22.83416
great just something few bugs here and there but absolutely no issues the graphics still looks stunning although not as good as pc but if you haven't played on pc you'll be amazed how gorgeous it looks 🫡 to sum up great experience and also the game has stabilized quite a bit almost no bugs I was trying to find that's why I find a few 😁🫡. now moving to below zero I'll hope to get the 2 soon I'll buy immediately believe me 🫡.
- Sujay Kumar Roy · v1.22.83416
What else to say other than.. This is full Subnautica that runs at 120fps and 2K resolution on a tablet! Brilliant
- darko sam · v1.22.83315
perfect (almost) from what I played on my Motorola edge 2025 it runs almost perfect it has some lag in the more heavy parts but other than that perfect
- Suction Cup man · v1.22.83416
the game is fun and I have waiting to play this for a long time and I love it thank you so much
- James Pet Langub · v1.22.83416
Bugs Ended my Hardcore Playthrough, when i ride The Prawn Suit the views from the inside looks odd like it zoom out a bit, turns out the glass basically didn't exist. I got one shot by sea dragon fireball. This is nonsense. My prawn suit on the survival playthrough also broken, no glasses. please fix it!
- Danang Mareza
This game is shockingly optimized for mobile. I can play smoothly with minimal framedrops. One of the best games I played in mobile.
- Joryll Herminigildo · v1.22.83416
This is the best open-world exploration game I have ever played on Android. No in-app purchase BS, just old school gaming and the synchronization across devices has been implemented brilliantly so I can put down my tablet and pick up my phone on the go and continue playing the game. Just brilliant.
- Dharmin Majmudar · v1.22.83416
Best game ever especially for a port
- Julian Muneton · v1.22.83416
This port is probably the best way ive experienced subnautica. Worth every penny. I think I bought subnautica for the 5th time lol
- William Segura · v1.22.83416
This is such a steal from the developers, I'm surprised how cheap it is and how well it runs on my bad phone. My only small complaint is that using the grappling arm on the Prawn suit is a bit annoying but otherwise fun and great experience :D
- Ilja Zilkowski · v1.22.83416
scared of ocean now
- Ethan Greenhalgh · v1.22.83416
best game ever, being able to play it ofline with out boredom is peak,now I don't have to spend so much getting the ps5 version-thank you
- Luca Gustafsson · v1.22.83416
it plays fine as a mobile port, but its kind of odd to me to launch any game with this kind of playstyle without native mouse and keyboard support. I wont refund it because I can see myself playing it with a gamepad eventually but I find the touchscreen on games like this for mobile ports functionally unusable. EDIT: this is not a review of Subnautica itself but of its functionality as a port. Mouse/keyboard support would bring it well in line with the PC version I love.
- Alan
The game is good 10/10 I will recommend this to my friends to play since they haven't played others games and the price is worth it 👌 95₱
- Richardo Sestoso · v1.22.83416
the scan is instant, I hate it. Below Zero is not even instant, why can't you do the same on this one
- Jhojay · v1.22.83416
my favourite game to date - absolutely hooked 👍
- Gregory Ness (Nessy) · v1.22.83416
Honestly its a fantastic port, runs extremely well, by any change in the future will there be a possibility of expanded graphical options?
- Game Place · v1.22.83416
excellent Performance, Great Job Optimisation Team , Game is Great as Always
- Aniket Singh · v1.22.83315
I love this game they did a very good job in optimizing the game, you can play it on the low end device but i recommend playing on mid range for 60/120 fps
- Dipsayan
I really love this game, I used to watch famous youtubers play this game. This version only has a few bugs that will be nice if it's getting fixed!
- Aadil · v1.22.83416
Gameplay is great, but has issues saving. I cant get past a few days without it starting to have issues finding the save path. Ive tried reinstalling and manually creating the file path but no luck.
- Mac Connaghan McPherson · v1.22.83416
Sorry for giving this game 1 star. The game itself is good. So why did I give it 1 star? Because there are no updates. It feels like buying a game, finishing it, and then that's it no further development, no improvements, and no new features. I also bought Subnautica: Below Zero to experience different features and a different atmosphere. Imo, you should continue developing what already exists instead of leaving Subnautica 1 behind and moving on to Subnautica 2? 3? 4? 5? just dead game.
- Yuxiuna · v1.22.83416
good
- Norma Jones-Eaton · v1.22.83416
im good but the leviathan is scary
- Roche ann Grande · v1.22.83416
can I get a refund? please?
- D UNKNOWN · v1.22.83315
The bioreactor is always out of power when I log back into the game.
- Jim Cleveland · v1.22.83416
Just amazing and thrilling game
- Prashant Pratap Singh · v1.22.83315
love the game and U i would recommend this game worth it
- Habibplayz YT · v1.22.83315
so far the best experience I have had with any paid game
- Moksh Arora · v1.22.83315
What an absolutely amazing experience. I loved it, man. it's cool how the game kind of expects you to figure it all out on your own including the story. upgrade your equipment and GO DEEP...as deep as you can, and as you go deeper in the depths of the ocean you get closer to the ending and truth. it was awesome.
- R&Z · v1.22.83315
fun
- Kyle McCool · v1.22.83416
Fun game, but pretty short. I dont feel like there's is a lot of replay value after beating it once or twice.
- Boulder Bill · v1.22.83315
GOOD AND GREAT
- Goodlu Goodlu
I don't review games and right them but today is an exception. I am a huge subnautica fan however, I do not and will not own or by a PC. I play games on Google app only, that being said. I find it ridiculous that Subnautica below zero allows use of keyboards, Yet the original Subnautica does not allow this. It is 2026 Unknown worlds, Keyboards on tablets exists and that said I like this games but because one game allows keyboard and the other doesn't are negatives. P.S Subnautic 2 on android?
- Nikita Orlovsky · v1.22.83315
W game, virtually 100% identical to the pc version except the graphics have been slightly degraded for performance (which is a good thing) and there are mobile adaptations (like onscreen controls except for camera movement based controls like in pc) to make the game more playable. But overall, the game is pretty much the same as the pc version and I would suggest anyone to buy this game if you do not want to pay full price for the pc version but have a good phone lying around.
- Pichitchai Khamphawa · v1.22.83315
I have this title on PC and love the fact I can take subnautica anywhere I go! really good indeed
- Franken Stand · v1.22.83315
great
- Ncmigelo Ncmigelo · v1.22.83315
wow. played it with a controller for a few hours. I can't believe it works so well on android tablet. High FPS, good graphics. Great port. great value for money. super recommended
- Tal Alon · v1.22.83315
Fantastic opening. Absolutely terrifying for the first 30 hours. Incredible Ending! Everything story based is just perfect! Loved every second! The only trouble is obtaining items in late game but other than that, THIS is what video games are supposed to be! Thank you for this!
- Arkham Assailant
While I do prefer to play on PC it's amazing you got this(and sub BZ) working on Android great work! It run great on my Samsung S26 Ultra.
- David J (SCORPION2000) · v1.22.83315
what an experience, I've always wanted to play it since I don't have any pc, finally dream come true moment! graphics are insane! but fps drops when looking at creepvine biome!
- Sourav Sanyal
a bit buggy with the terrain and I'd love more setting customization but it's a successful subnautica mobile. 4 stars because I'm in a bad mood
- Ayano Inuzuka
there is no customized control as krafton have in PUBG , other than that it's perfect
- Amit 8797 · v1.22.83315
pls make this game free wan you drop subnautica 2
- Leo · v1.22.83315
This is what I imagined "gaming" was when I was just a young warthog. A screen in my hand with no peripherals and the ability to imagine myself in the seat.
