Subnautica 2 Sets May 14 Early Access Launch on PC and Xbox

A court order returned control of the launch to Unknown Worlds.

Overview

  • Unknown Worlds announced Thursday via a new cinematic trailer that Subnautica 2 enters Early Access on May 14 at a launch price of $29.99.
  • The sequel will be available on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and Xbox Series X/S, with some outlets reporting it will also be included in Game Pass.
  • Four-player co-op will be live on day one, and the studio expects the Early Access phase to last about two to three years with regular updates.
  • In March, the Delaware Chancery Court reinstated CEO Ted Gill and extended the timeframe tied to a disputed $250 million earnout tied to performance targets.
  • Krafton disappeared from the publisher field on store pages even as Unknown Worlds says the two companies are co-publishing, and the game is currently Steam’s most wishlisted title.
