Subnautica 2: Roadmap – Everything about Early Access and upcoming content

Subnautica 2 is set to be continuously developed as part of an Early Access. Everything known about the progression and upcoming content can be read here.

Is there a roadmap? So far, there is no official roadmap for the Early Access of Subnautica 2. However, in mid-2025 a document was leaked on Reddit that reportedly shows some content and milestones of the survival game in the original EA timeframe before the delay. The authenticity of this document was later confirmed by the publisher Krafton.

While it is currently unclear whether the content of the document is still accurate, it does indicate trends of what might be expected. Additionally, you have the opportunity to influence via the Nolt website regarding which changes are also to be considered.

We will show you which contents the previously leaked documents hint at.
