Subnautica (2018)

Piloting the Cyclops submarine feels like operating genuine heavy marine machinery, from physical engine speed toggles and fire suppression buttons to a holographic hull damage schematic on the bridge. Handheld exploration is equally tactile, with the Seaglide projecting a miniature three-dimensional sonar topography and compass directly between your grips. Every dive meter and oxygen readout belongs to your equipment rather than a floating HUD, keeping the deep ocean suitably terrifying.
