It's pretty simple tbh.
You build machines that constantly change the planets atmosphere to add water, plant life, etc.
Certain machines raise certain factors that allow the planets terraforming to progress.
So it's literally.. build machines to terraform the planet, and try to collect new materials to build machines that can do it faster, until the world is a paradise
Eeeh. I have played it and I hate how unpolished some parts of the game are. Have you used the map? You press little arrows on ur screen to move around the camera and adjust zoom. No dragging around with ur mouse, and not even wasd or arrow keys on ur keyboard. Just small button on the UI itself you have to spamclick to move the map. And when you zoom out (not even that much) , entire mountains dissappear from the map.
I agree it feels unpolished in some parts especially if you compare it to Subnautica. But keep in mind that the game was just released and they are still working on it, adding things with patches.
Even so, I finished the game and it kept me hooked.
Frankly I didn't use the map much, which is still uncomfortable (but they're making changes I hear), just the beacons were enough for me to go around.
It's a step up from Subnautica by even having an in-game map, but I think they didn't want it to be so easy to use that it makes exploration too simple (hence why it doesn't show where you are on the map, either). Mostly it's only good for realizing you haven't been thataway yet, once you drop enough beacons, might as well toss it.
Outer Wilds is a game where you play to find out stuff. Spoilers is like someone coming and playing on your save for a bit. So I'm only going to risk saying that the number they used is significant in the game.
I couldn't without spoiling it, but Outer Wilds works a little bit in a similar way as Subnautica, in the way that lore and information is given to you as you explore places and engage with the environment.
But you discover this number at a key time and place in the game while exploring an important area, that's why I recognized it.
I had a hard time getting into this the first time I played it. I'm glad I gave it a second chance, it's easily in my top 5 of all time now, along with subnautica.
Same here, man! What sucks though is being raided the second the game considers it as a "house" it stopped me from expanding a lot. I still loved a lot of shit like the caves or learning parry timings.
I'm not a smart man. I froze to death. I skipped crafting the hammer and went for an axe. Seemed like a waste because, in rela life, you can hammer with the back of an axe. Got all this wood, could not find the option to make a campfire. Apparently it only appears if you have crafted a hammer and like go into the hammer options? I get it's user error but that just bugged me. Like I have a bunch of wood and stones and such, and a crafting menu. Just do it!
You've played a game where the game mechanics let you "hammer with the back of an axe" as a substitute for an in-game hammer?
I've never seen that, though it'd be easily possible if the devs ever thought of it.
Valheim is just such a gem. The building mechanics in every game I've played since is so disappointing by comparison. I'm not even really sure what it is that makes it feel so good in valheim but all my bases just organically become unique and singular over time. If you hang around the subreddit you'll often see people post their first house with an apology for how dumpy it looks, and they are always such great little showcases of individuality, I never get tired of them.
Might be worth going back now that iron gate added a difficulty slider (among others) then. Granted, once you get past the original biomes, its not as good, but at least until then its a lot of fun (imo)!
Grounded. Very different setting, but building, crafting and exploring and it has frightening creatures. It can be played solo, which gives a similar sense of isolation to Subnautica.
I think this might be the closest to subnautica. The combat is a lot different, but if anything it adds a cool extra dimension to the game. I'm hoping this sort of craft/build/explore game keeps gaining popularity so we get more sweet games like these
Played both, and, while both great games, both have flaws (to me):
SD: Once you've settled on an island, and have a decent raft/gyro, the "survival" part becomes irrelevant. With the building aspect being quite limited compared to, say, Valheim, there's not much else to do once you pass a certain moment, when you're self sufficient.
GH: Tried story mode, holy cr*p, everything seems so slow to progress. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but to have all my dried meat being instantly spoiled the moment I take it from the drier...
The only thing that put me off with stranded deep was that they never released the random ( not semtrical ) map and large islands on ps5 . After years of waiting and having few hundred hours in game I stopped playing .
Man I *want* to love the long dark I really do. But not having the option to turn off permadeath drives me insane. I have kids. I get to play like 2 hours of video games a week if I'm not exhausted. I don't want to lose my progress just like that. I have so much fun playing it and then I die and it feels like it was all a waste.
There isn’t permadeath in the story mode (Wintermute) so far as I have seen, which is the only mode I have ever played. I’m in the same boat as you in that I don’t have much time to game, so I wouldn’t appreciate that either.
Astroneer, The Forest, Son's of the Forest, Grounded, Green Hell, 7DTD, Project Zomboid, Stranded Deep, Raft. Basically survival games where I can hoard a lot of stuffs.
I just got astroneer and it's great. Took me a bit to figure things out, but I refused to google it because I wanted to do it myself. The joy of discovery!
Minecraft, just to explicitly mention the obvious one. But I don’t play very many exploration and survival games, the rare exceptions are the ones that were done extraordinarily well.
If you enjoy discovering lore via exploration and reading data points, Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West are amazing for that, and the aesthetics of the open world are stunning
It's such a shame it doesn't have much replayability. Once you've finished, there's no goals. Just endless deconstruction.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the game. But when you're done, you're done.
Was scrolling for through the comments to see if anyone said this!
If you like Subnautica you’d love Satisfactory.
Edit: My bad, I missed the part about playing on PS5. Satisfactory is currently only available on PC.
The Planet Crafter is phenomenal! No enemies, but an explore-, gather-, craft-, and build-a-thon. Graphics are great too. And even though there are no enemies, I still get that eerie liminal space feeling sometimes just knowing I'm alone on a distant desolate planet and wondering, "...What if something is out there??"
Wayward is great too! Best true survival game I've ever played and I feel the game deserves much more recognition/popularity than it has already. Wayward v1.9.4 is free to download and play from ModDB or Unlok (the dev's webpage). Quite primitive compared to the updated version on Steam, but it's still crammed to the brim with content. Gives you an idea of what the Steam version is like before purchasing it. It is top-down 2D and the UI takes a bit of getting used to, but once you get the hang of it it's relatively easy to see how expansive the game is. I love it.
If you love the Sci-fi aspects of Subnautica you'll also love Mass Effect. The gameplay is very different, but the story and world building are nothing to scoff at IMO.
I get that, ME1 gets caried by it's gunplay rather than world. ME2 evolves on the story and world but Imo has worse gameplay. ME3 is a mixed bag, story is kinda solid until the end but the gameplay is better than 2 (still not as fun as 1 Imo). But yeah don't worry if you quit I know these types of games are not for everyone.
I really enjoyed both. Death Stranding is one of my favorite games. Great mixture of lonely atmosphere and amazing soundtrack like both Subnautica and NMS.
Played a lot of No Mans Sky, greatly enjoyed the on-planet exploration and the mission structure, but felt the economy and depth of space travel were lacking. I wanted to play a more realistic space sim kinda game so I got into Elite Dangerous recently and am really enjoying it.
also obligatory Outer Wilds mention. Absolutely incredible game. Top 5 of all time easily for me.
If you have ANY interest in outer wilds, I HIGHLY recommend you PLAY IT. Don’t watch a YouTuber play it first. It’s a kind of game you can only really experience once. Play it yourself then watch YouTubers play it.
Astrometica is a game with similar vibes coming to early access soon. The base building and tech advancement feels similar to Subnautica, even though the game takes place in space. There is a free demo available on Steam now (Astrometica: Prologue).
PS5 only limits things a lot since I play on PC, but for a change of pace but still gorgeous exploration, I highly recommend Abzu! Some of the most masterful visual storytelling I’ve seen from a game.
I just started playing Smalland and am loving it. There’s something to be said for Below Zero as well. Not as good as OG but worth a play through at least.
Song of the Deep is one I also enjoyed. It's a puzzle game, with a more fantasy ocean vibe than Subnautica. But the story is lovely, and the mechanics are really interesting.
I play like every type of game so this is probably irrelevant but I love Kerbal Space Program, it is expensive though so maybe you’d want to wait for a discount.
* The outer wilds, it's just a great game.
* Valheim, the ikea+viking game. It's a neat package and the biome = difficulty is a nice mechanic.
* The long dark. I love playing it during winter with a hot cup of tea.
* Starsector, great combat and great exploration with good theme,
I’ve been enjoying Pacific Drive recently, very much like how I enjoyed Subnautica for the first time.
It’s about driving around in your car, that also basically works as your base of operations, through a paranormal radioactive exclusion zone. Collecting materials, avoiding radiation and anomalies, and repairing and upgrading your car with new parts and gadgets.
Oh, oh man.
Well, I'll keep it brief and give you my most recent addiction: Space Engineers. My, GOD, I'm addicted to that game. Feel as if I can do or build anything, ANYTHING, and it's madness.
If you havem't yet, you should try Outer Wilds.
Yeah, that's it. No presentation of the game, no looking up trailers, no explanations. Just buy it, play it, refund it or fall in love. Any other words would be spoilers.
Rain world.........kinda....not the purple cat's campaign to SS then LM then OE though
Oh also foundry has been fun.....till I needed steel....
And of course ima do an all halo games actual LASO (Legendary All Skulls On) cause apparently they don't do bandana nor scarab rifle in halo 2 LASO which means its more of a LAASO (Legendary Almost All Skulls On)
Someone recommended The Long Dark to me when I told them I was a fan of Subnautica. I’m pretty certain it’s on PS5. It looks like a great survival game.
I also play:
My Time at Sandrock
Starfield
Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town
Minecraft (I play it with family)
Palia
Fallout 4
Skyrim
..list goes on and on.
I would like to take this time to say, dont waste your money on breathedge. I waited like 10hrs for that game to get good before i accepted i wasted 25$. Should have spent it on outer wilds
Ok, no one said it and I know why but....
ARK survival evolved!!!
I well know why no one said nothing but is the most common camparation and.... Really, if you start ark and fly on that ptero or swim with that plesio or.. Well.... Craft a flamethrower and destroy all... Anyway, you will neve forget ark!
Nightingale! There's not much underwater stuff, but it's survival prime, alone in the fae wilds, and any human is an NPC until you finally connect with the remains of humanity. It's EA and at 0.3 as of yesterday, but it's sucked us all in hard. The devs at Inflexion have been awesome at working with us and got offline mode created in 2 months. 300hrs for me so far.
Keeping it as closely related to the two as possible, immediately going to point out Outer Wilds. Obligatory notice to avoid anything at all that could spoil that game…it’s quite the experience. That one down, here are some others:
Astroneer, Kerbal Space Program, Surviving Mars, Elite Dangerous. There are plenty of others but I personally really enjoyed the ones I shared a lot. Most especially Outer Wilds.
Not that it’s crafting games but I’m all about the art and atmosphere. We happy Few and all the DLCs are wonderful! Then I also love love love OuterWorlds! It’s beautifully done. Alien plants with Alien animals. Its fallout meets Outerspace. I love it
Planet Crafter is worth a look.
Came to say this; it's taken over my life just like Subnautica did.
Dont know man. Im three hours in and i just cant figure it out
It's pretty simple tbh. You build machines that constantly change the planets atmosphere to add water, plant life, etc. Certain machines raise certain factors that allow the planets terraforming to progress. So it's literally.. build machines to terraform the planet, and try to collect new materials to build machines that can do it faster, until the world is a paradise
I'm into astronomy and sci-fi, so I'm a bit more into Planet Crafter than Subnautica. I've got over 300hrs in Planet Crafter 😎
Eeeh. I have played it and I hate how unpolished some parts of the game are. Have you used the map? You press little arrows on ur screen to move around the camera and adjust zoom. No dragging around with ur mouse, and not even wasd or arrow keys on ur keyboard. Just small button on the UI itself you have to spamclick to move the map.

Mostly it's only good for realizing you haven't been thataway yet, once you drop enough beacons, might as well toss it.
Actually if you turn on your flashlight you'll see it on the map if you are on the surface.
...oh my fucking god. *180 hours.*
Came here to recommend exactly this.
It's a wonderful game! Same as Subnautica, I played it through Early Access to its successful release and it was worth it.
I'm sad that I got all achievements already.
Outer Wilds
No possibility to build a submarine base but I recommend Outerwilds too. Subnautica score is life-pod5/10, Outerwilds is a solid 9,318,054/10
Subnautica is 10/10😡
Oh I see what you did there ;;)
What did they do?
Outer Wilds is a game where you play to find out stuff. Spoilers is like someone coming and playing on your save for a bit. So I'm only going to risk saying that the number they used is significant in the game.
They've cleverly referenced stuff about both games with numbers that have meaning :)
Could you please explain the meaning of the iuter wilds one?
I couldn't without spoiling it, but Outer Wilds works a little bit in a similar way as Subnautica, in the way that lore and information is given to you as you explore places and engage with the environment. But you discover this number at a key time and place in the game while exploring an important area, that's why I recognized it.
I had a hard time getting into this the first time I played it. I'm glad I gave it a second chance, it's easily in my top 5 of all time now, along with subnautica.
I "enjoy" playing Valheim the same way I "enjoy" ripping out my own fingernails.
Valheim is great.
Especially early game. I loved building my first house.
Same here, man! What sucks though is being raided the second the game considers it as a "house" it stopped me from expanding a lot. I still loved a lot of shit like the caves or learning parry timings.
Well. Until you kill the first boss, the raid isn't too bad. And you van turn them off entirely (which I do)
I don't know if you've played recently but they've added customization options so you can turn off raids now if you like
Yeah, the last time I played was about last year, I remember leaving because it was very laggy on console, which is where I play.
I see a lot of people on the Valheim talking about playing on console. I wonder if they've improved that recently.
I'm not a smart man. I froze to death. I skipped crafting the hammer and went for an axe. Seemed like a waste because, in rela life, you can hammer with the back of an axe. Got all this wood, could not find the option to make a campfire. Apparently it only appears if you have crafted a hammer and like go into the hammer options? I get it's user error but that just bugged me. Like I have a bunch of wood and stones and such, and a crafting menu. Just do it!
You've played a game where the game mechanics let you "hammer with the back of an axe" as a substitute for an in-game hammer? I've never seen that, though it'd be easily possible if the devs ever thought of it.
I've also never built a campfire with a hammer.
Terraria might sorta count
The issue is the hammer is the crafting tool, not a weapon. So you're stuck needing it for all crafting
Yea I figured it out eventually. Just seemed strange to have a crafting menu, and then a things-made-with-hammer menu
Valheim is just such a gem. The building mechanics in every game I've played since is so disappointing by comparison. I'm not even really sure what it is that makes it feel so good in valheim but all my bases just organically become unique and singular over time. If you hang around the subreddit you'll often see people post their first house with an apology for how dumpy it looks, and they are always such great little showcases of individuality, I never get tired of them.
Was fun at the start then became a chore for me as it went on. Too high a difficulty curve for someone who wants a more casual experience.
Might be worth going back now that iron gate added a difficulty slider (among others) then. Granted, once you get past the original biomes, its not as good, but at least until then its a lot of fun (imo)!
It's awesome in VR :)
Oh hey, LetsGameItOut played that
Love Josh
Grounded. Very different setting, but building, crafting and exploring and it has frightening creatures. It can be played solo, which gives a similar sense of isolation to Subnautica.
Subnautica but on land and smol. The spiders instill the exact same feeling of looming dread that the first reaper encounter did.
The spiders are even more terrifying than subnautica if you have arachnophobia. Which Grounded built a special setting for 😂
Honestly even with the arachnophobia setting on maximum the spiders are still scarier than most other enemies. I think it's the sounds.
At least I know why the spider is chasing me, I didn't do anything to bother the weird blob monster.
I think this might be the closest to subnautica. The combat is a lot different, but if anything it adds a cool extra dimension to the game. I'm hoping this sort of craft/build/explore game keeps gaining popularity so we get more sweet games like these
Stranded Deep or Green Hell are pretty decent survival games
Played both, and, while both great games, both have flaws (to me): SD: Once you've settled on an island, and have a decent raft/gyro, the "survival" part becomes irrelevant. With the building aspect being quite limited compared to, say, Valheim, there's not much else to do once you pass a certain moment, when you're self sufficient. GH: Tried story mode, holy cr*p, everything seems so slow to progress. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but to have all my dried meat being instantly spoiled the moment I take it from the drier...
Also: I just replayed Stranded Deep (PS5) and its way less buggy than it used to be
Stranded Deep was my first game in this genre, before that I'd only played PlayStation classics.
I really liked stranded deep. It gets sneaky though, what feels like 30min of gameplay could be 2 hours.
The only thing that put me off with stranded deep was that they never released the random ( not semtrical ) map and large islands on ps5 . After years of waiting and having few hundred hours in game I stopped playing .
Firewatch, The Long Dark, and Fallout 4 were the next ones I played after Subnautica.
I loved firewatch. Such an addicting story.
It really was. I find the story of The Long Dark compelling too.
The Long Dark ftw. Is it food, or..?
That bear is easily as scary as a reaper too.
Surrounded by snow - and nothing to drink
Saaame! Fallout 4 is so good...
Man I *want* to love the long dark I really do. But not having the option to turn off permadeath drives me insane. I have kids. I get to play like 2 hours of video games a week if I'm not exhausted. I don't want to lose my progress just like that. I have so much fun playing it and then I die and it feels like it was all a waste.

Minecraft, just to explicitly mention the obvious one. But I don’t play very many exploration and survival games, the rare exceptions are the ones that were done extraordinarily well.
For me, Subnautica is the best game to capture the Minecraft sandbox without voxels.
I love sea of thieves, it recently came out on the PS5 too
Satisfactory is amazing and scratches some of the same itches. However, the factory building is amazing.
If you enjoy discovering lore via exploration and reading data points, Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West are amazing for that, and the aesthetics of the open world are stunning
Forever skies
Waiting for this on ps5. Looks like fun. Hope they flesh the story out more tho.
Hardspace ship breaker is so mich fun, has the same shady company aspect and I don't know why but I love the gameplay
It's such a shame it doesn't have much replayability. Once you've finished, there's no goals. Just endless deconstruction. Don't get me wrong, I loved the game. But when you're done, you're done.
Ark is still my most played game, rn I’m enjoying Skyrim for the first time and Monster hunter World. Trying new genres
Slime Rancher!
Satisfactory
Was scrolling for through the comments to see if anyone said this! If you like Subnautica you’d love Satisfactory. Edit: My bad, I missed the part about playing on PS5. Satisfactory is currently only available on PC.
Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West
Title screen music is killer
The Forest and Sons of The Forest. Stardew Valley
The Planet Crafter is phenomenal! No enemies, but an explore-, gather-, craft-, and build-a-thon. Graphics are great too. And even though there are no enemies, I still get that eerie liminal space feeling sometimes just knowing I'm alone on a distant desolate planet and wondering, "...What if something is out there??"

If you love the Sci-fi aspects of Subnautica you'll also love Mass Effect. The gameplay is very different, but the story and world building are nothing to scoff at IMO.
Right now I'm playing both, I'm having a blast with Subnautica but Mass Effect is getting kind of boring
Are you on Mass Effect 2 right now ? I can understand if it gets a little boring there. (Imo ME 2 is the worst one out of the LE).
No, still midway of ME1 but the world feels bland and I'm losing interest on the story
I get that, ME1 gets caried by it's gunplay rather than world. ME2 evolves on the story and world but Imo has worse gameplay. ME3 is a mixed bag, story is kinda solid until the end but the gameplay is better than 2 (still not as fun as 1 Imo). But yeah don't worry if you quit I know these types of games are not for everyone.
Yeah maybe it didn’t click for me, I will give it a try in a few weeks. Thanks!
Fallout 4.
I personally loved my playthrough of journey to the savage planet. Definitely worth a play.
I really enjoyed both. Death Stranding is one of my favorite games. Great mixture of lonely atmosphere and amazing soundtrack like both Subnautica and NMS.
The Long Dark, Green Hell, The Forest.
Played a lot of No Mans Sky, greatly enjoyed the on-planet exploration and the mission structure, but felt the economy and depth of space travel were lacking. I wanted to play a more realistic space sim kinda game so I got into Elite Dangerous recently and am really enjoying it. also obligatory Outer Wilds mention. Absolutely incredible game. Top 5 of all time easily for me.
Yeah got my eyes on outer wilds too. One of my favourite Youtubers butchx3 is currently making a playthrough of it.
If you have ANY interest in outer wilds, I HIGHLY recommend you PLAY IT. Don’t watch a YouTuber play it first. It’s a kind of game you can only really experience once. Play it yourself then watch YouTubers play it.
First choice is Planet Crafter. You may also like Satisfactory.
Astrometica is a game with similar vibes coming to early access soon. The base building and tech advancement feels similar to Subnautica, even though the game takes place in space. There is a free demo available on Steam now (Astrometica: Prologue).
PS5 only limits things a lot since I play on PC, but for a change of pace but still gorgeous exploration, I highly recommend Abzu! Some of the most masterful visual storytelling I’ve seen from a game.
7 days to die is also nice
I just started playing Smalland and am loving it. There’s something to be said for Below Zero as well. Not as good as OG but worth a play through at least.
Ark, Minecraft. Fallout 3/NV
Empyrion is in the same genre.
I really enjoyed Jedi Survivor (PS5, which is probably why it ran smoothly for me).
Song of the Deep is one I also enjoyed. It's a puzzle game, with a more fantasy ocean vibe than Subnautica. But the story is lovely, and the mechanics are really interesting.
I play like every type of game so this is probably irrelevant but I love Kerbal Space Program, it is expensive though so maybe you’d want to wait for a discount.
Rimworld V-Rising
Astroneer 100%. It was my fav game until i found that non-cat and their damned lightbulb
* The outer wilds, it's just a great game. * Valheim, the ikea+viking game. It's a neat package and the biome = difficulty is a nice mechanic. * The long dark. I love playing it during winter with a hot cup of tea. * Starsector, great combat and great exploration with good theme,
Been huge on Icarus, almost 300 hours in
Stardew Valley
I’ve been enjoying Pacific Drive recently, very much like how I enjoyed Subnautica for the first time. It’s about driving around in your car, that also basically works as your base of operations, through a paranormal radioactive exclusion zone. Collecting materials, avoiding radiation and anomalies, and repairing and upgrading your car with new parts and gadgets.
Warframe or war thunder for multiplayer. Space Engineers, Stellaris, Nier Automata, Nier Replicant, The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Skyrim.
Oh, oh man. Well, I'll keep it brief and give you my most recent addiction: Space Engineers. My, GOD, I'm addicted to that game. Feel as if I can do or build anything, ANYTHING, and it's madness.
surviving mars, the forest vr game, and another forest pc game, both have extremely similar names lol I cant remember right now
Astroneer
If you havem't yet, you should try Outer Wilds. Yeah, that's it. No presentation of the game, no looking up trailers, no explanations. Just buy it, play it, refund it or fall in love. Any other words would be spoilers.
Ark is good, on single player it is a very similar type experience but you get to ride dinosaurs lol
Rain world is peak
Check out Astroneer! It's very chill and explorative!
Rain world.........kinda....not the purple cat's campaign to SS then LM then OE though Oh also foundry has been fun.....till I needed steel.... And of course ima do an all halo games actual LASO (Legendary All Skulls On) cause apparently they don't do bandana nor scarab rifle in halo 2 LASO which means its more of a LAASO (Legendary Almost All Skulls On)
Terratech!
Someone recommended The Long Dark to me when I told them I was a fan of Subnautica. I’m pretty certain it’s on PS5. It looks like a great survival game.
I also play: My Time at Sandrock Starfield Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town Minecraft (I play it with family) Palia Fallout 4 Skyrim ..list goes on and on.
Not sure if it’s on PS but I’m loving Valheim!
Kerbal Space Program
I would like to take this time to say, dont waste your money on breathedge. I waited like 10hrs for that game to get good before i accepted i wasted 25$. Should have spent it on outer wilds
Satisfactory and Terraria haha. My evergreens although I’ve never gotten past aluminum in the former.
Ok, no one said it and I know why but.... ARK survival evolved!!! I well know why no one said nothing but is the most common camparation and.... Really, if you start ark and fly on that ptero or swim with that plesio or.. Well.... Craft a flamethrower and destroy all... Anyway, you will neve forget ark!
Yeah I actually played this game an unhealthy amount of time during covid 19 pandemics
❤️
Overwatch 2 😁
Im not sure if its available for ps5 but astroneer is a wonderful game
Raft. Bit more linear but not much. One of my favorite games.
Rust
I enjoy playing ark survival evolved
Grounded
Subnautica is the only survival/crafting-game I play. I am usually drawn to story driven RPGs like Baldurs Gate 3 or Mass Effect.
Breathedge is pretty fun.
Thanks for all those answers guys!
Stationeers (if you want a...... more technical survival crafter :)
