Curious Archive | The Biology of Subnautica

This is the full version of my 4-episode miniseries on Subnautica and Below Zero. A nature-documentary exploration of Planet 4546B

The vast oceans of the video game Subnautica and its sequel Below Zero teem with incredible life, some friendly, and some deadly. While the series is focused on survival, the lifeforms of Subnautica are amazing even when they’re trying to eat you: possessing fascinating biology, bizarre behavioral patterns, and hidden mysteries.


I’ve explored the various creatures of the series before on my channel, and in this special compilation episode  you can get the full, documentary-style experience in one video.


From the sunlit shallows to the deepest abyss, we’ll explore the biology behind these puzzling aliens, and discover the role they play in their larger ecosystems.


So, let’s take the plunge together, and see what awaits us under the surface…
