Pick your depth: Survival, Freedom, Hardcore or Creative
Some players dive for the pressure, others just want to build. In Subnautica on PS5, the Game mode option lets you pick the rules your next session runs on: Survival for the full loop, Freedom to drop hunger and thirst while health and oxygen still bite, Hardcore if permadeath is your kind of thrill, or Creative for free building and looser crafting and survival rules. Same ocean, very different mood.
- Switch to Freedom and skip the hunger and thirst juggling; health and oxygen still matter.
- Creative mode opens the door to free building and relaxed crafting and survival rules.
- Hardcore turns the dial up with permadeath on the line.
