Subnautica 2 Images and Gameplay Appear to Have Leaked Online, Just Days After Forza Horizon 6 and LEGO Batman Suffered Leaks of Their Own
Aquatic survival adventure Subnautica enters Early Access tomorrow, May 14, 2026, on PC and Xbox Series; players can currently pre-order and preload via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment and publisher Krafton battled in court after the developer was denied a $250 million payout following a July 2025 delay; courts sided with Unknown Worlds in March.
Despite the resolution, Subnautica has leaked roughly 48 hours before its official release, with files for a build circulating online and users reporting screenshots appearing across various communities.
This incident follows similar pre-release leaks for Forza Horizon and LEGO Batman; yesterday, Playground Games warned that playing leaked builds risks incurring "franchise-wide and hardware bans."
The title launches straight into Game Pass as a headline May release, where players will explore an uncharted ocean planet as the Alterra Corporation ship Cicada goes off course.
