Welcome to the abyss of Jupiter’s moon, Europa, where the pressure is high and the oxygen is low. Developed by FakeFish and Undertow Games and published by Daedalic Entertainment, Barotrauma has been the gold standard for 2D survival horror and submarine management since its full release on March 13, 2023. Available on PC, it’s a game of intricate systems, from wiring nuclear reactors to performing sketchy surgery on your friends. Just remember that in the cold darkness of the abyss, the only thing more certain than a Thresher attack is the fact that your Medic is definitely "testing" the morphine on themselves.
Whether you are here for the high-stakes tactical gameplay, the complex engineering, or just to witness the comedy of errors that occurs when your captain decides to "steer by feel," Barotrauma offers an experience quite unlike any other. I should know because as of March 31, 2026, I have logged 1,443 hours on Steam, which is legally enough time to qualify as a certified, submarine-hardened deep-sea engineer or at least someone who has been traumatized by enough hull breaches to know that every mission's success is mostly just a lucky escape from a watery grave.
