Subnautica Devs Keep Slipping Sequel Screenshots into the Original | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Developer Unknown Worlds revealed the existence of a Subnautica sequel earlier this year, which should comfort fans of tense, eerie survival games. In more distressing news, it seems the developer has been surreptitiously sneaking screenshots of the sequel into the original game, like some malevolent underwater sea creature.

Having evolved that horrible membrane that lets them see better underneath the sea, fans quickly noted some additions to the title's in-game database (thanks, Eurogamer). First thought to be just another aquatic oddity, these additions have since been confirmed by moderators on Reddit to be from the upcoming sequel, Subnautica 2.

It's a pretty cool way to build hype for a sequel, updating its predecessor and waiting to see if the most hardcore amongst your fans notice. Do you have the fortitude required to play Subnautica? Are you looking forward to the sequel? Let us know in the comments section below.

I'm playing Subnautica. staying alive in these games is much more difficult than in real life. managing oxygen, hunger, inventory, making new batteries… very painful.
I've found a lot of cool blueprints but making them looks impossible.
these survival games can get boring real fast. the fans are really patient and must love the game so much.
I was thinking about No Man's Sky but now I'm not sure anymore. I don't have the fortitude required.

@CthulhuFhtagn Starting out can be rough in Subnautica, but once you've hit a couple of breakthroughs, it becomes so much easier. After a while, you're not really worrying about your basic needs as much
