The second hotfix for Subnautica 2 has arrived, and Unknown Worlds has revealed full details of what the new patch fixes. The game is still in Early Access, and early in its release, it has already shattered the first game’s peak player count and sold 1 million copies.
The developers have outlined a brief roadmap, but there are no hard deadlines for updates, as they want the freedom to develop the game as they wish and avoid the pressure of promised hard dates for its progression. The second hotfix was released on May 22.
According to Unknown Worlds, this latest patch focuses on resource areas and adjustments to Hammerhead behavior, as well as general bug and crash fixes. The team again noted that additional changes are being worked on based on player feedback, and those can be expected in the coming weeks. Below, you can see full details.
