One of the co-founders of Subnautica 2 studio Unknown Worlds has made a statement about the dramatic reshuffle of management at the studio, saying that it “stings” to have the game and company taken away from him by publishing overlords Krafton. He also asserts that the game is “ready for early access”, but that Krafton may disagree. It doesn’t explicitly answer any of the outstanding questions about what actually happened at the studio to cause the axing of three senior leaders last week. But it does provide some clues.
