Amid an ongoing legal battle between Subnautica 2 publisher Krafton and the game's original developers following leadership changes and a subsequent 2026 delay, a leak outlining plans to "enhance" the title before its launch has been confirmed as real.
In a new statement to PC Gamer, Krafton confirms that a leak showcasing a milestone review of Subnautica 2's progress so far and the publisher's plans for its future is, in fact, legitimate. The internal review features a "final recommendation" from the studio, proposing to "launch with an MVP-level build that allows players to experience the core loop (survival, gathering, crafting, exploration, etc.) at a high level of quality."
