I Played Subnautica in 2026 on the Switch 2 - Video Game Review

With Subnautica 2 now entering early access, I decided to revisit the original Subnautica — but this time on the Nintendo Switch 2. Having originally played the game on PC, I wanted to see whether this survival classic still holds up in 2026 and whether the Switch 2 finally delivers a proper handheld survival experience. Subnautica remains one of the most immersive survival games ever made, and surprisingly, playing handheld on the Switch 2 made parts of the experience even more intense.
