Set on a new planet, Subnautica 2 will support single-player and co-op gameplay with a total of up to four players, the first time multiplayer gameplay is present in the series.

The game was initially confirmed to be in the works on April 7, 2022, as "the next game in the Subnautica universe". [4] In November 2023, publisher Krafton revealed in a financial report that it was to be released sometime in 2025. [5] This was followed by another report on February 8, 2024, that described it as a "multiplayer live-service game", creating fan backlash that prompted the developers to clarify that it would have "no season passes, no battle passes, no subscription". [6] [7] The first screenshots of the game were also published in 2024, some of which were hidden within Subnautica itself. [8] A cinematic trailer for the game was released on October 17, 2024, during the Xbox Partner Showcase.
