Overview
- An internal memo reported by media and later confirmed by Krafton set a May Early Access window for Subnautica 2 on PC and Xbox Series X, with no specific date announced.
- Vice Chancellor Lori W. Will’s March 16 ruling reinstated Ted Gill as Unknown Worlds’ CEO, restored his platform access, and barred Krafton from impeding his authority over the Early Access launch.
- Lawyers for Gill and the co-founders told the court the May window was 'self-servingly' disclosed, alleged Krafton 'intentionally leaked' the memo, and warned the low-key reveal could harm marketing and sales.
- Krafton’s legal team said the memo only marked a pre-ruling milestone review and insisted nothing in it limits Gill’s discretion on timing or strategy, disputing any contempt or breach.
- The judge has not ruled on the new letters and has directed both sides to submit a proposed judgment, as millions in potential earnouts tied to the game’s early performance remain at stake.
