In the realm of video games, Subnautica 2 has been at the center of controversy. Delays in its development have been attributed to tensions between the developer Unknown Worlds and the publisher Krafton, which has triggered a lawsuit between both parties. This dispute has overshadowed discussions about the game itself, but the development team has shared details about its future multiplayer features.
You can play with friends, but also alone
Anthony Gallegos, design lead, emphasized that Subnautica 2 will continue to offer an individual experience, true to the style of the original. However, multiplayer modes have been added, a highly requested aspect by the community. It is important to note that playing in cooperative mode will not be required to enjoy the title; the solo experience will remain fully satisfying for those who prefer to explore alone.
The multiplayer system will allow players to invite friends to join their solo games or start new multiplayer games, and it will feature cross-platform support. Gallegos assures that no part of the game will require cooperative play, allowing players to enjoy the isolation they appreciated so much in the first title.
With Subnautica 2 scheduled for release, fans hope that the new installment strikes a proper balance between the individual experience and cooperation, ensuring that all players find their preferred mode of play. Rumors suggest that the release could be closer than expected, generating even more anticipation in the community.
