Krafton accuses former Subnautica 2 bosses of abandoning the game in surprising new statement: ‘We feel a profound sense of betrayal by their failure to honor the trust placed in them’

The founders of Unknown Worlds, Charlie Cleveland and Max McGuire, along with former CEO Ted Gill, have filed a lawsuit against Krafton after the company accused them of neglecting their responsibilities, resulting in project delays for Subnautica 2. Krafton, which acquired Unknown Worlds in 2021 for 0 million plus million in performance bonuses, claims Cleveland focused on a personal film project instead of the game. Krafton has delayed the release of Subnautica 2 until 2026 due to insufficient content and has appointed Steve Papoutsis as the new CEO after dismissing the former leadership. Cleveland contends that Subnautica 2 is ready for early access, while Krafton denies that financial motivations influenced the delay. The company has pledged fair compensation for the remaining employees at Unknown Worlds, but details are unclear, especially regarding the intended distribution of bonuses among the team. The situation has sparked divided opinions within the Subnautica community.

Subnautica 2 reportedly delayed into 2026 just months before Krafton was due to pay a $250 million bonus to developer Unknown Worlds

Krafton has announced a delay for Subnautica 2, now set for release in 2026, following playtests that indicated the need for improvements. The decision was based on a commitment to quality and community feedback, not contractual obligations. The delay affects a potential 0 million bonus tied to the game's timely release and revenue targets set for the end of 2025. Krafton acquired Unknown Worlds in 2021, and discussions about the delay had been ongoing prior to recent leadership changes at the studio. CEO Steve Papoutsis stated that the delay aims to enhance the game's content and was not motivated by financial considerations.
