Subnautica 2 is an underwater survival adventure set on an all-new alien world, developed by Unknown Worlds. Play alone or with friends in 4-player co-op. Adapt to survive by building custom bases and crafting tools. Explore the unknown to uncover the mysteries hidden within the depths.
Honestly even the absolute best case for this game is still “the more you care about it, the better it is for you to wait until it’s out of Early Access”. Early access for an “exploration first” game means your exploration is going to find a bunch of “come back later” walls, placeholders, and bugs. That’s the point of Early Access after all. I’d have enjoyed Subnautica a lot less if I’d played it during Early Access and was waiting on a patch to let me explore the Aurora.

With all the drama and red tape surrounding the development of this game.
I really hope it’s as good as the original, but I’m cautiously optimistic.
I’ll be waiting for reviews before I buy.

I’ll waiting a lot to what’s actually in the EA and what’s their roadmap.
Learnt the hard lesson with Kerbal 2.
