Day-One FAQ
The questions every player is asking at launch. Sourced from official Unknown Worlds posts, the Steam page, Reddit map threads and recent video updates (last sweep: May 14, 2026).
Early Access is PC (Steam, Epic) and Xbox Series X|S only. PS5 and Switch 2 are not announced for the EA window. PS4 / Switch 1 are not on the roadmap.
Yes. Steam lists online co-op and cross-platform multiplayer, and Unknown Worlds describes Subnautica 2 as playable solo or with friends in 4-player co-op.
Unknown Worlds now says Early Access is expected to last about 2-3 years, with updates adding more biomes, creatures, craftables, features and narrative content.
The studio has not promised permanent save compatibility for every update. Treat Early Access saves as active-development saves and back them up before major patches.
