Subnautica: Below Zero News

The Subnautica: Below Zero Original Soundtrack is out now!

Composed by Ben Prunty, the soundtrack features 54 remastered and expanded tracks, which includes four bonus tracks. It totals two hours and 25 minutes, and is available to purchase for $9.99 USD.



Also, for the first time, the original Subnautica soundtrack is available to purchase from Steam.

To make the soundtrack more readily available, we've moved the soundtrack from the game itself to additional content. If you already own a copy of Subnautica on Steam, you will automatically be credited with a free copy of the soundtrack to download. You can find and download this directly from the game listing in your Steam Library.



Additionally, for the next seven days, any purchase of Subnautica on Steam will also come with the soundtrack. After that, it will be available to purchase for $9.99 USD.

We hope that you enjoy listening to the Below Zero soundtrack as much as we enjoyed working with Ben Prunty to help bring the world of Planet 4546B to life.

Hello, Subnauts!

As you may be aware, we were excited to introduce Steam Cloud save capability with the final Early Access update for Below Zero, Seaworthy.

We have heard all of your feedback about how Steam Cloud saves have been working for Below Zero and have made the difficult decision to disable the feature.

With Steam Cloud saves enabled for the last several weeks, we can say definitively that it's not quite ready for prime time. For us, this boils down to two factors: speed and reliability. Steam Cloud saves are currently taking too long for some players, and we have also received a few concerning reports of saves disappearing. The latter seems exceptionally rare but where saves are concerned, we feel that it is better to err on the side of caution.

There should be no impact to your existing saves. They should remain locally on your computer and you can load them as normal. 

Should you need to access your save games on another computer, you will need to transfer your saves manually. You can find your saved games in the SubnauticaZero\SNAppData\SavedGames\ folder, or by going into the game properties on Steam and browsing Local Files. (The drive Below Zero is located on will differ depending on where you chose to store the game.)



We'd like to support Steam Cloud saves moving forward (it's something we want as players as well!) but will do so with a more robust implementation. We can definitely say it won't be ready in time for our May 14 launch but we are considering this a priority.

Thank you again for all of your support and feedback.

Happy diving!

[h2]Steam Cloud Saves FAQ[/h2]

What happens to my saves?
There should be no impact to your existing saves. Only that you’ll need to transfer them manually if you want to move them between computers. We have been assured that even existing saves in the “cloud” will be unaffected.

Help! My save files are gone!
Send us an email at [email protected]. We probably can’t recover them, but we would love to work with you to learn what happened and help other players. 

Can I download my saves that were stored in the cloud if I deleted them locally?
No. Well, not at the moment. Any save that is in the cloud should be preserved until we turn Steam Cloud saves back on. But you will not be able to access them until that time. They are both there and not there. Schrodinger’s saves.

Aw man, I love cloud saves!
Us too, we’re definitely bringing them back! We need a little extra time to perfect it first.

[h2]Crashed Ship Story[/h2]

Have you ever found yourself wondering about the crew of the Mercury II whilst you trawl the wreckage scattered across the ocean floor? Wonder no more! You can now discover fully-voiced logs in the Mercury II wrecks that will provide more insight into the crew aboard... and their fate.

[h2]Prawn Suit Improvements[/h2]

The Prawn Suit has more maneuverability than ever before with the addition of a horizontal boost, as well as improvements and refinement to existing Prawn Suit upgrade modules, such as the Torpedo Arm.


[h2]Bug Squashing[/h2]

Thanks to all of your incredible feedback and bug reporting, the team has been hard at work squashing bugs for this latest release. With the Seaworthy update, you'll be able to play the most stable version of the game yet!


[h2]New Loading Bar[/h2]

What's that waddling across the bottom of your screen? While you wait for Below Zero to load, a cute little Pengling will walk along the loading bar. It may stumble a few times, but don't worry, no Penglings were harmed during the loading process!


[h2]Steam Cloud[/h2]

With this final Early Access update, we're bringing Steam Cloud support to Below Zero. You can utilize Steam Cloud to upload your saved games and download it to any computer with the same Steam account upon launching the game. So, if you need to move from computer-to-computer, taking your lived in saves with you has never been easier.
Note: If you have local save games on multiple computers, we recommend disabling Steam Cloud and manually merging your files before syncing.


[h2]Gamepad and Rumble Support[/h2]

Below Zero now has added gamepad support. If you prefer to traverse the waters of 4546B using the gamepad of your choice, it should now provide a seamless experience. Rumble support is also available for Xbox controllers only.


[h2]1.0 Release Date[/h2]

Oh, and we have just one more little announcement: Subnautica: Below Zero is coming to all platforms on May 14th! We want to extend our thanks to all Subnauts for your patience as we finalized the release date. We can't wait to bring the game to everyone playing on PC and console. And once again, we appreciate all of your support and feedback throughout the Early Access process.
