Unknown Worlds' underwater survival title Subnautica has sold over five million units, according to studio founder Charlie Cleveland.

Cleveland offered the number in a comment on an interview we conducted with Giant Games that mentioned the game. When we reached out for clarification on the number, Cleveland specified that it was 5.23 million total, including PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store, Xbox One, and PS4 sales, and that the number did not include free downloads.

That means Subnautica has sold that many units on top of an additional 4.5 million free downloads it gathered during an Epic Games Store two-week-long free promotion in March 2019.

My first question was "does that include all the Epic Store free downloads?" and apparently it does not.

Well done for them, that's a huge achievement.

A great game and well deserved.

It's an incredible game, top 3 VR game. You get such a feeling of presence being underwater at night...

I got gifted Below Zero over the holidays and am enjoying it as much as the original.

Great for them, I really enjoyed my time with it. Will play Below Zero day one when it reaches 1.0.

This reminds me that I need to play Below Zero more. I started it and when I built a new PC I completely forgot about it.

grats to the team, suck a dick tho for what you did to that developer

 

[DoctorEkkoUK]

been playing this off and on for years since it was in early access but never pushed through with the story mode since it released in full. Went back to it recently and has been my chillout game of choice over last few weeks

I really wish the horrendous pop in was fixed. I'd probably jump back into it. Haha

At 1:20 he says "There's actually only one game that I think is a better game than Subnautica that's also underwater" and then never mentions the name of the damn game. Now I won't sleep at night thinking that there's an underwater game better than Subnautica and I'll never know which one.

I'm old enough to remember when the team fired their composer for PC World nonsense.
