Unknown Worlds Confirms Subnautica 2 Leak Ahead of Thursday’s Early Access Launch

The studio says unofficial builds circulating online are incomplete versions.

Overview

  • Unknown Worlds confirmed that pirated Subnautica 2 builds are online and warned they are unfinished development versions that may be unsafe or not work as intended.
  • The Early Access release unlocks Thursday at 11 a.m. EDT in a single global rollout, and every player gets a Reaper Leviathan Statue blueprint from launch.
  • Steam pre-purchase and a 72-hour preload are live to spread downloads before launch, while Epic Games Store and Xbox offer pre-orders without preload.
  • The game costs $29.99 on PC via Steam, Epic, and the Windows Store and on Xbox Series X/S, includes day-one access through Xbox Game Pass, and supports optional four-player cross-platform co-op.
  • The leak joins a string of early releases this week such as Forza Horizon 6 and Lego Batman, renewing questions about how pre-release files and access are secured across platforms.
