During the October 17 Xbox Partner Preview event, Krafton and Unknown Worlds Entertainment shared the first teaser trailer for Subnautica 2 and confirmed it would enter early access in 2025. As the sequel to 2018’s Subnautica, the upcoming Subnautica 2 will take place on a new planet and include a 4-player co-op mode for players to enjoy.Drawing inspiration from other open-world titles like Minecraft, the first Subnautica game allowed players to explore the aquatic planet 4546B, uncover the secrets of the advanced alien species called the Architects, and encounter various Leviathans that sometimes attack without warning. Subnautica later had a spin-off, Subnautica: Below Zero, released in early access in 2019. While Below Zero was initially planned to be an expansion for Subnautica, it became a standalone title set two years after the original game. Both Subnautica and Below Zero were lauded for their underwater exploration mechanics and for encouraging players to comb through the depths of the ocean. 3:20 Related 5 Games Where You Are The Only Person In The World Many people enjoy privacy and isolation, but sometimes it can be too much.
