About This Game
Barotrauma is a tense 2D multiplayer survival horror game set beneath the frozen oceans of Jupiter’s moon Europa. Combining submarine simulation, teamwork, alien monsters, and psychological chaos, the game delivers a brutal sci-fi survival experience where danger waits in every direction. Barotrauma
Inspired by games like FTL, RimWorld, and Space Station 13, Barotrauma challenges players to survive terrifying underwater missions while managing submarine systems, hostile creatures, and sometimes even betrayal from within the crew itself. Barotrauma
Survive Beneath Europa’s Frozen Ocean
Humanity has escaped Earth and taken refuge beneath the icy surface of Europa. Deep below the frozen wasteland lies a dark and dangerous ocean filled with deadly creatures, ancient ruins, and mysterious factions. Barotrauma
Travel through harsh underwater environments while completing dangerous missions and uncovering the secrets hidden within Europa’s abyss. Barotrauma
Teamwork or Betrayal
Cooperation is essential for survival, but not everyone on board can be trusted. Work together with your crew to repair systems, fight monsters, and complete objectives — or sabotage the submarine and watch everything collapse into chaos.
Play with friends, strangers, or AI bots in both singleplayer and multiplayer modes for unpredictable survival experiences.
Operate Complex Submarine Systems
Every crew member has an important role onboard the submarine. Control critical systems including:
- Sonar
- Nuclear reactor
- Engines and pumps
- Weapons and defense systems
- Medical equipment
- Electrical wiring systems
Communication and coordination are the keys to keeping the submarine operational during emergencies.
Explore Alien Ruins & Fight Monsters
Discover the remains of alien civilizations while battling horrifying sea creatures lurking in the darkness. Some enemies can be avoided, while others require careful teamwork and powerful weapons to defeat.
Every mission presents new threats, resources, and opportunities for survival.
Deep Crafting & Customization
Gather materials to craft weapons, medicine, tools, and equipment that help your crew survive longer missions.
Players can also design custom submarines, monsters, and animations using the game’s built-in editors. Full mod support and public source code access allow endless community creations and gameplay expansions.
