๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿคก BREAKING: Krafton Decides to Play Game of Thrones with Subnautica 2 ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿšจ So, hold onto your flippers, because Krafton just slapped a "PULL UP" on the ex-Subnautica 2 execs like they were some extra content in an expired DLC. ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’€ Weโ€™re talking about a $250 million bounty thatโ€™s more elusive than a blue fish in a sea of grey! ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’ธ After yanking their game studio's life support, on July 2nd, they threw Steve Papoutsis from The Callisto Protocol into the CEO seat of Unknown Worlds, effectively saying, "F**k around and find out!" ๐Ÿ›‘๐Ÿ’ช But hereโ€™s the twist: the game weโ€™ve been waiting on like itโ€™s the next Great Gatsby? Yeah, itโ€™s now dropping in 2026. Try not to scream while you roast your marshmallows over that slow burn! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ˜ฑ As Ted Gill and his crew take the express train to โ€œWho even cares now?โ€ land, since their game is MIA until 2026, they casually dropped that everything's โ€œin good shape.โ€ Fam, we all know that's code for โ€œWeโ€™re panic-in-the-IRC-ing!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿค– ๐Ÿ’ญ Pro-tip: When asked about the situation, one dev was quoted as saying, โ€œHonestly, itโ€™s like seeing the Titanic sinking while Iโ€™m eating my sandwich.โ€ ๐Ÿฅช๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ #Relatable ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ Hereโ€™s the hot take: Subnautica 2 will morph into an underwater NFT game where players mine for stonks, and if you don't buy loot boxes, you get eaten by a Kraken! This is fine. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿš€
