As fans plan to boycott the game following the recent changes made to Unknown Worlds, the studio's new CEO has responded and called it "disappoin🌜ting".
For the uninitiated, earlier in July it was reported that 's original creators (Ted Gill, Charlie Cleveland, and Max McGuire) had been168澳洲幸运5开奖网: forced out of Unknown Worlds, with Striking Distance Studios CEO Steve Papoutsis set to take over. This week, that decision has potentially caused legal issues, citing further reports that Krafton allegedly f𓃲ired the co-founders to stop a potential $250 million bonus payout.
The Subnautica 2 delay arrived just a few months before Krafton was due to pay the studio a $250 million bon♓us, which would have kicked in had Unknown Worlds managed to hit a certain revenue target by the end of 2025, as stipulated by an agreement when Krafton purchased the developer in 2021.

"That's Disappointing" Unknown Worlds CEO Responds To Potential Boycott
Despite the ongoing turbulence Subnautica 2 faces, Unknown Worlds' new CEO, Steve Papoutsis, has doubled down on Krafton's decisions. As pointed out by , Papoutsis said, "Making games is a labor of love, and peopl𝄹e put a lot of effort into making those games. Throughout the time I've been involved in making games, there have always been changes. There have always been people that have come and gone, ⛦referring to the co-founders' departure, adding his initial reaction was "that's disappointing".
Amid the controversy, Krafton went so far as to minimise the co-founders' involvement with the sequel, saying "Charlie and Max have had minimal–to-no involvemen🃏t in the development of SN2. The🔯 SN2 development team remains intact and is actively continuing its work." Papoutsis concluded his comments by saying that Subnautica 2 is about delivering a "meaningful player experience" that respects the existing community.
