# Subnautica - Parent Guide Subnautica is a deep-sea exploration game rated for ages 10+, but the strong horror elements—including frightening alien creatures and dark underwater environments—make it better suited for older children who aren't easily scared. The game features no violence, language, or sexual content, only survival and crafting mechanics.
