Subnautica 2 (Early Access Review)

The Long Awaited Subnautica 2 Game Is Here.

Subnautica 2 has finally reached early access on May 14th, 2026. The game was originally supposed to be available for early access last year in 2025. However, regardless of the delay, the early access of Subnautica 2 does not disappoint.

Even with Subnautica 2 being a sequel to the original, you will find the new game hosting different environments to explore. A large range of new creatures will inhabit the underwater planet, sporting a renewed sense of discovery for the first time. Don't worry though, despite being in early access, Unknown Worlds didn't forget to add their signature leviathans into the vast ocean. However, we will leave that to you to discover.

If you are worried about the potential price factor of Subnautica 2, keep in mind it is early access and there is already good content in the game. The developers for the game have indeed posted a roadmap for what is to come in the future. Even though the initial price is listed, additional content and story for the game is pretty much guaranteed.
