Good news for fans: Subnautica 2 will be available on Xbox Game Pass! Microsoft has announced it will launch into Game Preview on May 14, 2026, for Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, supported handheld devices, and the cloud—all through Game Pass.

Subnautica 2 Launches Day One on Game Pass

Subnautica 2 will be available to play on May 14, 2026, for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers. It will be part of the Game Preview program, meaning players can experience the game as it’s still being developed. You’ll be able to play it on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and even on handheld devices and via the cloud.

Which Game Pass Tiers Include Subnautica 2?

Xbox has announced two Game Pass options: Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Not all Game Pass plans will include this game, so please verify your current subscription level by May 14th to see if you have access.

The Xbox Store does mention that playing online multiplayer games on consoles needs an Xbox Game Pass Essential, Premium, or Ultimate subscription, but this only applies to accessing online multiplayer – it doesn’t determine which subscription levels actually include the game.

Is Subnautica 2 a Full Release?

Subnautica 2 will be available through Xbox’s Game Preview program, meaning players can try an early version of the game. The Xbox Store clarifies that this is a work in progress and will continue to be updated. Those who start playing on May 14th will be experiencing a build that’s still under development, not the final, complete game.

Can You Play Subnautica 2 With Friends?

I’m so excited for Subnautica 2! The best part is, you can play it however you want. You can totally go it alone and explore the ocean on your own, which is how I usually like to play. But if you’ve got friends who love Subnautica too, you can team up with up to three of them for a four-player co-op experience. It’s awesome that co-op is optional, so everyone can enjoy the game in their own way.
