Game Overview:
Subnautica 2 is a survival game developed by Unknown Worlds Entertainment and published by Krafton.
It is the third instalment in the Subnautica franchise.
The sequel to Unknown Worlds Entertainment's critically acclaimed survival title will also launch on day one for Game Pass.
Developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment could have an announcement soon regarding early access for the sequel, which begins in 2025.
The Games-as-a-Service remark by Krafton apparently meant that Subnautica 2 would just get continuous updates after release.
The sequel will take place on an "entirely new" alien planet and utilize Unreal Engine 5 for "stunning stylized graphics."
"Your recent excitement for the next game in the Subnautica universe has been infectious," says developer Unknown Worlds.
The survival adventure is a "major pipeline" title for publisher Krafton. An official announcement from Unknown Worlds is still pending.
A job listing for a senior narrative designer has revealed that a new Subnautica game is in development at Unknown Worlds.
Unknown Worlds Entertainment is now part of the PUBG: Battlegrounds publisher and is working on a new "genre-defining" title.
