Subnautica 2 Dev Outlines Upcoming Content Drop, Including Brand-New Region

After all of the drama that played out in court, Subnautica 2 has gotten off to a hot start. There's still work to be done on this early-access release, but Unknown Worlds has now shared some of its plans to improve the game and previewed its next big update. In a new video, Subnautica 2 design lead Anthony Gallegos teased the upcoming content drop, which will introduce the Collector Leviathan's home as a new region. That update will feature a new chassis that brings back one of the most requested player experiences, as well as fresh creatures and resources. Gallegos also teased it by saying, I really think it's going to be the scariest the game has been yet, and I can't wait for you to try it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnnucBrqeKQ Following the most-recent hotfixes, Unknown Worlds is planning some smaller updates, including proximity voice chat as soon as possible. Additional Biomod options are being added earlier in the game and players will be able to unlock more passive slots as well. Gallegos noted that players should be able to notice Blight encounters more easily, thanks to some adjustments to the aggression of the parasites. The dev team is also looking to allow players to replay the voice logs from their PDAs. According to Gallegos, Subnautica 2 has sold 4 million copies across Xbox Series X|S and PC since its launch, not counting the players from Game Pass. The game isn't currently available on PlayStation 5, and it's unknown when or if Subnautica 2 will be going cross-platform. The early-access period for Subnautica 2 is expected to last three years.
