Subnautica 2 Becomes Steam's Most Anticipated Title
For a long time, Hollow Knight: Silksong held the coveted title of the most wishlisted game on Steam, generating immense hype among fans. However, with its recent release, the top spot has now been claimed by another highly anticipated title: Subnautica 2.
The sequel to Unknown Worlds Entertainment's popular underwater survival game has surged ahead, now ranking above other major upcoming releases like Battlefield 6, Borderlands 4, and Deadlock. This indicates a significant level of player interest, seemingly unaffected by the widely reported internal issues surrounding the game's development.
Reports have detailed a period of considerable upheaval at Unknown Worlds Entertainment, including the dismissal of studio executives and subsequent lawsuits between former leaders and the publisher, Krafton. Despite these challenges and the ongoing legal battles, the gaming community's enthusiasm for Subnautica 2 remains remarkably high, driving its wishlisting numbers to the very top.
Initially, Subnautica 2 was slated for an early access launch before the end of 2025. However, due to the aforementioned internal disputes, this timeline has been revised. The game is now targeting an early access release in 2026. Subnautica 2 is confirmed for PC, available on both Steam and the Epic Games Store, as well as Xbox Series consoles, including availability through Game Pass.
This strong showing on Steam's wishlist charts highlights the enduring appeal of the Subnautica universe and the high expectations players have for its next installment. Despite the behind-the-scenes drama, players are clearly eager to dive back into the depths and explore what new wonders and dangers await them.
