"Subnautica 2 Developer Addresses Multiplayer Live-Service Game Concerns"

Subnautica 2 developer Unknown Worlds addresses concerns after publisher Krafton's announcement of a multiplayer live-service model for the game, clarifying that while the sequel will support co-op play for up to four players, it is not multiplayer-focused and can be played entirely solo. The studio reassures fans that there will be no season passes, battle passes, or subscriptions, and plans to continually update the game without microtransactions. Additionally, it refutes Krafton's claim of a 2024 release, stating that more information will be shared later this year.
