In Uboat you get a selection of varied missions and tasks, along with regular contact from BdU advising you of such tasks or emergencies such as rendering assistance to a fellow Uboat crew that has received damage following a depth charge attack. The major difference with this game compared to say the Silent Hunter series and specifically Silent Hunter 5 which up until now was THE title for the WW2 Submarine Captain / Roleplay simulation, is you don't feel like you are given a boat then abandoned to fight the war alone with a bunch of NPC's.
Add into this the ability to switch into 1st person mode and navigate your way throughout, squeezing past the crew in the confines along with an equally refined sound palette, and it can all seem scarily real at times. The Graphics, reflections and textures are simply fantastic, if not the best I have seen in any Uboat simulation. Heavily influenced by the classic German TV series and film Das Boot, if you have seen it in the film, it most likely will be featured somewhere within this title.

With this latest update 2022:1 anyone buying the game at this point can be confident in buying a really competent, atmospheric submarine management simulation. The transformation and the development path of Uboat has been nothing but amazing.
#U boot game release date mods#
Yet another Submarine simulation that will be ever fated to have numerous mods with the promise of restoring parts of the game that should of been. At this stage it would be easy to think 'Oh no, the Death throws of yet another Early Access title' that will never really ever be finished but will be milked to pull in anybody who happened upon the offer page. Then the game started appearing in every sale and offered now and then at a cut price cost. Days turned into Months with various small fixes and odd update but it all seemed one step forwards, two steps back again. Overall, it looked like it would require a massive amount of time, work, debugging and further development to be anywhere near what the developers envisaged.Įven with all this going against it you couldn't help but feel there was something here of a value, and different from a what has ever been seen before. First impressions there were that it was still pretty glitchy to say the least and prone to errors, the control scheme was a bit of a nightmare to use. So, it was 12 months later - April 2020 before finally added it to my Steam library. Upon it's release though I decided to wait awhile, as at that stage all reports advised the game was very gltchy and poorly optimised. UBOAT was one of those games I instantly wishlisted when announced and eagerly followed the progress on.
