As promised last week, the ousted founders of Subnautica 2 studio Unknown Worlds have filed a lawsuit against publisher Krafton, effectively accusing the company of sabotaging the game in an effort to avoid paying a $250 million earnout—and, when that failed, of seizing control of the company outright.
Subnautica was a major hit, and Subnautica 2 appears set to follow in those footsteps, with nearly 2.5 million wishlists on Steam alone and positive responses to playtests. This, the suit alleges, was actually a problem for Krafton.
