Krafton responds to Subnautica 2 lawsuit & accusations of sabotage

As a passionate fan, I’ve been keeping an eye on the recent developments regarding the lawsuit filed by the ex-co-founders of Unknown Worlds against Krafton. In response to these allegations, Krafton has come forward, denying any sabotage of Subnautica 2’s launch in order to dodge a substantial bonus payout. They stand firm, declaring their intention to vigorously defend themselves in the court of law.

Krafton released an email statement to Shacknews, stating that they deny the accusations of sabotage regarding the delayed release of Subnautica 2’s early access. Instead, they assert that the delays were due to their refusal to launch a game they believed wouldn’t meet fan expectations or uphold trust. They plan to confront the co-founders in court to validate these claims.

Here’s the Krafton statement in its entirety:

At present, it’s anticipated that Subnautica 2 will go live in an early access phase around 2026. However, if the previous leaders of Unknown Worlds get their preferred outcome, Krafton might face a substantial $250 million compensation claim, which could potentially add more complexity to the situation. Keep an eye on this story as we’ll be keeping you updated about Krafton in the future.
