Subnautica
7 Games Like No Man’s Sky If You’re Looking for Something Similar
If you aren’t big on traveling between worlds, Subnautica offers a more grounded experience. Instead of launching into space, this exploration game pits you into the watery depths of an alien planet where you will be swimming your way through the game. Much like No Man’s Sky, expect plenty of resource collecting and crafting on your aquatic adventure, as you will stumble across all sorts of different life forms and materials in the game’s vast world.
It isn’t all about making new discoveries, however, as players will have to manage their basic resources. From hunger, thirst, and hydration, players need to find ways to stay alive while looking for a way to get off the island. While the game isn’t exactly punishing, it offers just enough challenge to balance both the wonders of exploration and the urgency of survival.
