Despite the legal drama playing out between developer Unknown Worlds and publisher Krafton, Subnautica 2 will soon see an early-access release. The game arrives on May 14 for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
The announcement was made alongside a price–$30–though it’s not clear if that price will then rise in the future. Those who purchase the game during the early-access period will, of course, maintain access to the game forever, including updates and content released following its 1.0 launch, whenever that happens to be.
“We have plenty more in store for you all as we count down to early access on May 14,” the development team said in the announcement.
It’s exciting to see that Subnautica 2 finally has a release date! The anticipation has been building, and it’s great to know that fans will soon get to dive back into that immersive underwater world. Hopefully, the issues between the developer and publisher will resolve smoothly.
