While World War II has been heavily portrayed in video games, the underwater battles of submarines remain largely unexplored. UBOAT offers a unique perspective on this conflict, and it's currently accessible on Steam at a new low price.
In UBOAT, players command a submarine during the Second World War. Combining elements of strategy and simulation, the game challenges players to maintain their vessel while engaging enemies, navigating treacherous waters, and managing constant engineering issues.
Survival is key in UBOAT, as teamwork is crucial for success. Players must oversee every aspect of the submarine, from navigation and weapons to resource management. Released in August 2024, the game has garnered positive reviews on Steam.
The intense gameplay demands focus and resilience. However, for those seeking a realistic simulator grounded in wartime history, UBOAT offers a compelling alternative to the typical FPS experience, especially with its current discount.
Even fans of flight simulators may find UBOAT appealing, particularly if they were disappointed by the recent turbulent launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator in 2024. While there are no aerial maneuvers, and torpedoes replace aerial combat, the intricate gameplay and attention to detail will resonate with those seeking a challenging simulation.
UBOAT is currently 70% off on Steam, priced at £7.49/€8.99/$9.39.
