"Games as a Service model with enhanced replayability"
The folks over at Subnautica publisher Krafton have revealed some early details about Subnautica 2 in a new earnings report today, and controversially it sounds like it might incorporate the "Game-as-a-Service model".
We say "might", because there are two versions of this report on Krafton's website right now, and one of them doesn't mention anything about the GaaS elements. However, the version that does mention it is spreading on social media:
As you can see, it's also mentioned that Subnautica 2 will utilise Unreal Engine 5 to deliver "stunning stylised graphics", and interestingly it'll also feature up to four-player co-op support - which is the bit we're most excited about here!
Who knows whether the GaaS mention was a mistake, but we'll let you know if there's any follow-up statement from Krafton or Subnautica developer Unknown Worlds in the near future. You can view the differences for yourself below:
- Krafton 4Q23 Earnings Release (Version that mentions GaaS)
- Krafton 4Q23 Earnings Release (Version that doesn't mention GaaS)
