Deep, Vast Ocean. Big, Terrifying Creatures. It’s time to dive back into the unknown waters.
Mark your calendars! Subnautica 2 is entering Early Access in 2025, announced in a new teaser trailer. This eagerly anticipated sequel promises more underwater exploration, survival challenges, and the long-awaited multiplayer co-op supporting up to four players.
I’m positively thrilled to see one of my favorite games return, and I hope you are too! Let’s uncover what’s in store by breaking down the new cinematic trailer.
Get ready to dive deeper into the world of Subnautica! The sequel expands on fan-favorite elements, featuring new biomes, unique creatures, and untold secrets. Subnautica 2 offers both solo and co-op experiences for up to four players. Early Access is coming to Xbox and PC in 2025.
The first teaser trailer for Subnautica 2 has finally arrived, and fans are beyond thrilled, hoping for a new terrifying underwater experience.
The scene opens with a lone diver exploring the “Safe Shallows” that resemble the original game. However, the tranquil atmosphere is short-lived, as a gargantuan crab-like creature emerges with its massive claws snapping menacingly. As he desperately struggles for survival, help arrives as a co-op player in a submersible sea truck (introduced in Below Zero) comes to aid.
Don’t get too comfortable, though – veterans already know that in Subnautica, safety is often a mirage. The trailer’s ominous tone hints at even greater dangers lurking beneath the surface, and fans are already theorizing what other horrors await us in this new, unknown adventure.
We’ll be waiting with bated breath and full oxygen tanks for more details to emerge from the depths in the coming months. In the meantime, check out the teaser trailer below.
