When will Subnautica 2 be released on the PlayStation 5? Subnautica 2 sees us braving the ocean depths once more, sharpening our survival skills while uncovering the secrets of a new alien world.
The sizeable playerbase it attracted shortly after entering early access on PC and Xbox in May 2026, likely has many players who’ve yet to jump in wondering about when it might release on the PlayStation 5.
Will Subnautica 2 be released on PS5?
Publisher and developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment has yet to address when we can expect Subnautica 2 to release on PlayStation 5. What’s certain is that Sony’s console wasn’t included in its early access launch plans.
- Subnautica 2 PlayStation 5 release date: TBA
This likely means that the survival game sequel won’t make the jump over to the PS5 in the near future, as the developer’s efforts will likely go into building and polishing its PC and Xbox versions.
Although a potential Subnautica PS5 release during early access isn’t completely out of question, the lack of communication on this matter does suggest that we might have a longer wait ahead of us.
It isn’t uncommon for early access titles to hold off on launching on new platforms until their 1.0 versions are ready.
This could mean that Subnautica 2 will only release on PlayStation 5 when its full launch comes around. We’ll have to be patient and wait for official word from developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment.
