A few weeks ago I had a secret meeting with Unknown worlds & Krafton about Subnautica 2 and NOW I can finally tell you about it and show you all the cool stuff I've seen!! I'm extremely lucky to have been trusted by Krafton & Unknown Worlds for an opportunity like this and i can't wait to show you more about Subnautica 2 in the future!! Tell me your thoughts, What stood out? Did i get something wrong or possibly miss something? There was SO MUCH i wanted to put in this video but it was already running pretty long lol maybe I'll make a follow up video, I wanted to talk about creatures and a bunch of stuff that was found for their behaviors in SN1 that seemed mostly unused but existed in the code that I've recently found out was left as un-used because back then the team at unknown worlds was too ambitious for what computers back then could handle. Now that they are working in UE5 and have grown so much I'm expecting this game to blow everyone's socks off with even the smallest details!!
I genuinely wish the 3rd subnautica game was based in the void. So many of us want to know what actually lives in the bottom of the void on 4546B. The void could be maybe 10 times deeper than the challenger deep for all we know! I am so curious about what would exist in the crushing depths of the deep sea on 4546B
The idea of using creature DNA to get upgrades is great because I bet the more dangerous the fish, the better the upgrade. It’ll be an incentive to actually face the most dangerous creatures, whereas in the early games they were obstacles you had no reason not to avoid.
That makes sense, in below zero Alan used animal DNA to advance. So, maybe, no alterra mark...advance with animal DNA..a rogue group started by ALAN and Robyn?
The avoidance is what kept them scary though, below zero had the issue of the creatures being unavoidable so you learned very quickly they were an annoyance not a threat
@@Jmanr03 Okay actually fair. I think i more so meant the void creatures. Whatever baddies are there to keep you from going out of bounds, you never approach unless you’re testing your fear or to see what they look like
@@Jmanr03 I do think facing your fears should be something that is rewarded though. I could imagine it would be super scary seeing the creature and avoiding it. But actively going up to it could be potentially even more scary as you are putting yourself in that situation in the first place. Though I do think making it an optional thing, for at least the leviathans would be good so that it is still like the first game.
in subnautica's early phase there was a tool able to extract local creatures' dna and implant onto yourself to be more adapted to the world. the transfuser, i think. they did cut it and other tools in the updates. So it's nice if they actually put them back in Subnautica 2
@fookoff8660 Proof? I got a proof that you're wrong - in original subnautica's early access, there existed such system, but it was cut from final design, along with legback and prawn suit's detachable cabin. All of that was cut, and what I'm sure about is that the dna-changing tool WAS! simply extracting DNA from creatures we scanned already. Which makes it totally free.
One of my favorite things in Subnautica was transforming the Cyclops into a mobile base, stocking up on supplies and then going underwater for an indefinite amount of time, taking my time to enjoy the peace of solitude and beautiful landscapes of the depths, really hope we have a similar sub in Subnautica 2
We have to, especially since multiplayer will be an option PLUS a bigger map. Would suck if there wasn’t a massive mobile base like even a surface boat or something
IMO that was one of the biggest missed opportunities in Subnautica Below Zero; we got a tiny underwater garbage truck instead of a submarine that's big enough to allow you to really explore the world. Like the other comment said, a surface ship would be really cool, especially in conjunction with underwater threats that can't be seen from the surface.
@@tcaprecap1448 I want this map to be big enough to incorporate a big boat that can house all your vehicles, even your submarine. Mobile bases are great haha
@@soldseperately literally what I’ve wanted for years, I hate leaving “things” behind and always hoped they would implement even a moveable base where you can store other, moveable bases if u catch my drift. Just feels right - I remember some of the ideas friends and I had when the game released - damn I wish I kept note they were pretty cool especially any related to this mega base idea. I can’t quite put it into words but it’s almost a relaxing feeling when everything is ‘safe’ and together under cover. In ways it could ruin the game/ or change it drastically especially if u had to call it down from orbit once every so often or something like that. Perhaps to save yourself from harsh weather or unrealistically a huge monster. Not my proudest idea definitely wouldn’t implement this if I could but just showing the idea of how game could totally change. I’ll end up repeating myself about the idea you mentioned but I hope we share this unexplainable feeling, perhaps I’m nuts.
And the worst part was: You had to play trough the end of the game to properly "unlock" better batteries... i always left big ahh alien batteries in the capsule, its a crime to only allow them when you don't really need them anymore. It would have been way better to give us a (difficult and dangerous, but accessible) way to "farm" them earlier, so you wouldn't have to carry 30+ extra batteries...
Depends on the person giving the feedback some can be overdramatic and unprofessional when giving feedback making them sound more like a Karen which a company like other people do avoid cause it would sound like an insult at first look, don't expect someone to listen if you don't care to give respect many companies do their best to deliver which is not easy and to be unappreciated in the end would drive anyone crazy, it's like doing chores for your family just for them to mess up the place for you to clean again
@@HeyLittleTownWell tbh huge companies dont really deserve beating around the bush or respect. Indie teams yes, but if you want change in a big AAA game, you have to be heard.
Looks to me they listened a bit too much to unhinged fans on Reddit. The most hilarious thing I saw there was someone getting downvoted for calling Below Zero a sequel to Subnautica. People are trying to erase the game from history lol, because they didn't like it. Seeing the devs play along in this, I cannot respect that. I remember we were hyped for BZ as a sequel to Subnautica. This is Subnautica 3.
@yan-amar Below Zero was not a proper sequel. If anything, it should've been a DLC at best. It featured less variety in creatures and biomes than the first, there were less dangers, the map felt incredibly small compared to the first, stuff from the first game couldn't be bothered to be added here like the cyclops for example, less leviathan class creatures, a sub-par story. I could go on Below Zero was NOT a full game. It is NOT subnautica 2. It was a DLC they tried to charge you the price of a game for. Stop kidding yourself.
I love the fact they nailed the "same vibe but different" thing. Its still subnautica and yet it wont feel like 4546b atleast seeing the trailer. I will miss the creepiness of 4546b. Gargantuan leviathans ghost leviathans and the void and the fact the civilized aliens in subnautica earlier found this mysterious planet giving it a "no ones home" middle of nowhere vibe. Yet while the new one they live there like its their home will make it less eerie and mysterious, it still will make it more explorative and intresting due to it being the planets aliens we get something to aviliate the aliens with and let our imagination run far more wild with guessing their culture and so on until newer updates. Especially considering its a newer game having to live up/surpass the first its nostalgia filled and original hype with more content and more interesting details and I might be overhyped but i think its doing an amazing job. I hope there will be more interactivity with creatures like the mesmer was interactive so creatively and so on.
I agree with the idea about the submersible becoming a mech because of its name, Tadpole. Maybe like a tadpole, it will be able to have limbs just like a tadpole becoming a frog.
I would love if there was a frog, salamander, and Caecilian attachment to the tadpole as that is the name for the larval stage of all of them. Caecilian would definitely be the closest thing to the cyclops. Frog would be prawn. Salamander could be for shallows exploration. I could see massive tide pools that are rocky.
@@ashdog9235 I actually agree a lot with Caecilian being the cyclops equivalent, as the sea truck (which looks the most like a caecilian) was the below zero cyclops
The new leviathan seems to be somewhat inspired in design by the Humboldt squid, which gives an idea of what is to come. the Humboldt is both incredibly intelligent and aggressive, also being known to attack divers. it is also really nice to see leviathan designs other than the regular "scary eel like thing"
I feel the talking in BZ really, really made the same less scary bc people would actually talk to you and have conversations. I can very much appreciate a game with NO voice conversations (Aside of the sunbeam event which is GREAT imo, That guy is one heck of a voice actor and i've recently asked him to work on the red plague mod)
I love it too. A lot of times in the prawn suit I'd need to go somewhere decently far away but either couldn't, or I had to use the cyclops which took awhile. Looks very convenient!
Modders, I must make a request Subnautica 2 could very well be tailored into a 3d barotrauma. Imagine the sheer fun of that chaotic environment in a world this pretty
Eyes positioning in biology and evolution is a good indicator of the species' lifestyle. If they are positioned lower on a head, or even facing down, it means the specimen needs attention and observation downward. Perhaps for finding food, or be weary of threats from below. If the eyes are on the side and many, it might give the fish better detection and awareness for any threat coming. I find speculative biology fascinating, which is what Subnautica is having fun with!
I had thought about that too. Either a bottom feeder, or it could have evolved like that to “trick” potential predators. The first thing that came to mind was the barrel head fish.
This doesn't make sense for everything though, the Gargantuan, the Biter and the other skeleton guy have their eyes on the sides, despite being predators
@@NiCoNiCoNiCola Its not necessarily the location of the eyes, more where they are pointing. Reapers eyes are on the side, yes, but they are forward facing. It can look directly forwards. An example of this happening IRL is the T-rex, eyes on the side of the head, but still forward facing.
I really want an inventory upgrade system, it’s one of my dislikes in subnautica is just like you can’t upgrade your inventory. It would be nice if you could upgrade your inventory. Otherwise I’m super hyped. Another thing I’d love to see is imagine if you could lien raise a leg back and then it could be like a big mobile base that you can build on!
Part of what made the first game so good was that the threats were... well, threats. No one was going to go out of their way to kill a leviathan, and they were so aggressive and creepy looking/sounding. So, i hope they add that feeling of "i need to run" when faced with a threat again.
Imma be honest, for me personally below zero does this specific job better. The creatures are generally stronger and the leviathans actually manage to get me thinking about how to avoid them, unlike the original where i just ignore them
@boi2192 Oh yeah, I'm not bashing Below Zero. To be honest, the crystal and fabricator cave biomes were genius. I loved those and their music so much. The only thing I could say for Below Zero is that i wish there was more danger in the water outside of the caves
@Aska222 No no! That Kraken was scary as hell! But I'm talking about all the other lethiathans that we will probably be seeing for the other 80% of the game.
12:27 I honestly do believe he’s right. Another quite convincing factor is the fact that it has the handlebars on it. Something ONLY seen on the SEA TRUCK. They we’re used to move it into place so it’s the only,y reason I see that they were added.
Personal theory: Maybe the jake fish and shark both evolved with their eyes facing downwards because of the kraken leviathan, coming from below. In the first bit where the kraken is seen the player is sucked DOWNWARD
I think if you look, the tadpole does take the general shape of the prawn suit cockpit, with aspects from the sea truck so I imagine it Would attach to something, maby you can attach prawn arms to it so it becomes more like modern day subs that can grab and drill and all sorts
one thing I wish is that they cut down on human screentime to make room for more creatures and environment screentime in the trailer, that's what the players are here for after all
I disagree, you don’t want to spoil too much and this is only the first trailer. Couple new creatures and environments, a big leviathan reveal, and co-op all being revealed is plenty.
@@AleutianSailor Yea I could see your point, excited for the upcoming trailers aswell, a gameplay one would be best. Subnautica 2 is finally here and the community is going to have a very good time
im so excited for this game, i dont think ive ever felt such emotions for a game since the first game came out. my friend has fortunately offered to buy the game for me if its $40 or less. really really really cant wait to hop into this game with him
Would like to point out that in the key art the kraken has similar looking eyes to the sea emperor which may further indicate this could be a friendly big boi like you think
What if instead of having individual batteries for each tool, you have a battery for your suit and your tools use that? Cause that looks like what the "wake maker" is doing
This would tie into Subnautica 1 and the vision Charlie had for that game when he was CEO. Back then he did a interview where he said he wanted creatures to interact in different ways when faced with scenarios, Fear, Attack, Curious, etc etc. Much of it had to be scrapped because back then computers weren't really powerful enough to process so much code though that exact code is IN subnautica as of today, My personal devs for the Red Plague Lee23 and Lilly23 confirmed it and showed me. There's a ton of creature behaviors that are just not used. I think there's a very, very strong chance you're right and what you're saying is more correct than what i said in the video with it being a neutral creature.
Man, I'm very interested in playing Subnautica 2. I can't wait for the Early Access release. I started playing when there were no textures on the disease research complex yet and even caught the first versions of Below Zero. Thanks for the video and such a detailed analysis. We'll stay tuned
Odd that the oxygen warning seems to disappear just by the "Tadpole" being within proximity to the player. New O2 replenishment mechanic? makes it look like the tadpole will have a proximity alarm as well.
If the sub is literally called the tadpole, the first stage (second if you wanna include eggs) in frog evolution, yeah I think it’ll connect to something greater
@@destroyerofturtles5024 it sounds cringe. Legback just implies that he's got legs on his back. Coral hermit/reef hermit makes more sense and is cooler imo.
25:04 This might be a stretch, but it also seems like the purple coral formation on the left is akin to that of some crustacean leg (maybe legback). Which further hints at legbacks, or some creatures, becoming a part of the environment.
@@noct9978 Hopefully it’ll come to Subnautica 2 in a much bigger, more robust, and more advanced form while still retaining its iconic design and shape, but we’ll just have to wait and see!
Honestly i hope they do add a massive submarine, As large or larger than the Atlas with purpose. The map will be so large realistically i can see them choosing to have a few subs for different purposes!!
@@Anthomniai think it would be cool if they did a massive submarine with spider legs whose main purpose is to just be a mobile customizable base with big windows
I watched your content years ago when you first started posting subnautica content after finding out of the trailer you were the first channel I had to come to I’m so glad you are still posting subnautica
12:31 what if the tadpole connects to a lower part of the body? kinda like a detachable head if you need to do something else or let the lower part charge as a mech like the prawn suit
@@_jake_b9307 then why is it on the side of the sub, that would make it so hard to hold on. it should be on the back below or above the motor if that was its purpose
Cant wait to play this (in my opinion already looking like a) masterpiece of a game, thx for the community connection and all the Info Anthomnia, you rock!
Also noticed in the trailer that as the sub diver approaches the unconscious diver, the oxygen alert seems to go away, perhaps indicating that we can share oxygen with each other in dire situations? Could just be for the sake of the trailer though and I could be reading into it too much. 😂😅
I also think the the new vehicle is like a 3 in 1 vehicle. i think that u can attach different parts to it to make it either a mech or a small "base" like the seatruck. Or you can just use the base vehicle like the seamoth.
I could be crazy, but in the main picture with the squid and the two divers it looks like there was a second pair of eyes in the head of the squid? A parasitic creature in control of the squid would be so dark and cool! But two creatures with a symbiotic relationship would be interesting as well. 😮
The biggest thing I loved about Subnautica was the idea of surviving underwater and building a base but the thing that felt empty to me is that I had no one to share it with the only way I could share. My bill is through screenshots and posting them, but that wasn’t even enough to satisfy me. I wanted more I wanted multiplayer. I wanted to be ability to play the game with my husband Now I will be able to and that makes me very very happy. I want to even be able to play it with some of my friends online that also love underwater aquatic games. This is going to make things so much more interesting to be able to actually explore the water with friends. . I’m a professional diver and I love to dive and swim underwater so that being said that is actually quite fun with a partner so they should have multiplayer in games like this ! I’m glad they decided to listen to the player base.
imagine if the tadpol was like the control section of a massive ship and you could release the tadpol from the main sub and scout around with it and when your done you attach back to the main sub like a sea truck and then you can drive the big sub and exit from it
thats what i thought :D, i also thought it could be similar to the escape pods you can see on the atlas submarine, but rather its 4 deployable submarines for you and your team, that connects back to a mothership/hq style ship
Oh my goodness. I even played the series in a very long time. And I really wanna play it after seeing this trailer. Oh my goodness I can't wait to play this game again and and the sequel.Oh my goodness, this is really exciting to me
One note on the "legback": if they are indeed a crab/ crustation, then they grow their entire life and shed their skin/ shell once in a while. This could explain the "juvinile" form we see in the picture which has no coral growth. This one has recently shedded it's shell. Compare that to the one "adult" form which is completly covered in coral probably hasn't shed in a verry long time. Side note on crustation and their shedding: When a crustation gets older, the interfalls between shedding also gets longer
I think the new squid monster is an enemy leviathan, the sea emperor was originally supposed to be bad but they changed it. I don't think they'll do the same with this one. Also it doesn't have a name yet so im gonna call it "the architeuthis leviathan" for now. It's totally different from the new crab one that's probably gonna be the new sea threaders.
and the kraken is there for a first jumpscare and to warn us, so when we get word it is killed by sonething bigger we become extra scared to scout the deep
Evolution is the way creatures use to adapt to there surroundings. My thoughts is this creature evolved to see something below it, either it being a creature that eat crabs or leg bassed prey on the sea floor, or it being sn ambushe predator that lingers close to the surface and attacks down when it sees food. 16:29
I really want some more of the farming mechanics. Ik that sounds really boring but I really enjoyed that aspect of the game. I also really really want more environment based buildings. Like the sea truck aquarium module but like a room or some other things designed for observing the wildlife. Additionally more unique AI would be interesting. It really adds to the ecosystem and is interesting to watch. Showing how the world operates without us.
Speaking of farming, i want plants that can only be placed in water on foundations have a way to harvest them without being in the complete open, like special thing that blocks any air but pumps water in or something even if its very expensive to craft
A few things I noticed or theorize. The Jake Fish is basically a claw machine claw with its mouth shape and theorized hunting style; plus its white underbelly supports that it stays high to be camouflaged. The diving masks are the same at the end her hair just covers part of it and makes it look different. The oxygen packs are the same but might be thinner/wider depending on gender (men usually have broader chests). I think the flippers are the same but the female character's flippers are wore out and parts of them missing which would both explain the shoe showing through and the different patterns. Good analysis. also the building you get a better look at in the beginning during the ReefLeg® scene is the same one you see at the beginning just a closer view. Squid have a siphon jet they use to move quickly maybe they took that idea and reversed it to draw things in.
What we definitely need is something big like the atlas it's literally probably the most famous mod in subnautica some big sub is needed for subnautica 2 cause there will clearly be some deep oceans
During your explanations i noticed smth: Have ya'll noticed that the shark from both the lava zone screenshot and one of the first shared pictures of the game also evolved to have his eyes beneath his mouth, as the jack fish? The jack fish might even be the juvenile version of that shark, as they both have this specific upside-down face. But they also could be different species, that have both evolved to be scared of a danger coming from the surface. Maybe they were scared about the civilization that occupied the ruins, as they might've hunted them?
i would really love a deep sea area that literally has 0 light except some creatures bioluminesance and the light that you bring down there. cause usually subnautica has some glowing plant life or some glowing lava oceans to give ambiance. but i want PITCH BLACK waters
on 06:47 , the upper left side of the background, near a fume, there's something like a face. i thought "maybe only an illusion due to the background blur", but after it, Anthomnia talks about a face on the nearest rock on the lower left. It's highly possible the ancient ruins where the MC is in this trailer was a temple or a cathedral. the ruins in the back reminds me of european styled windows and architecture. Possibly alien ruins based on such style..
Hi, I’m a new subscriber and I’m one of the people that don’t talk at all but i follow the news of Subnautica and got some courage to send this message. I wanted to give probably some theory’s from a few things it says in the video, the swim suit, the DNA and probably some wild ideas. (I’m so sorry, I write a lot and I like exposing some ideas. Again sorry ;-;) The swim suit with the DNA too: From it being a higher level of technology it could probably mean a few things, for example: it could have some kind of solar energy charging system, because in most of the images and in the video the line lights of the swim suit are only glowing brighter when the player is exposed to sunlight; It could also mean that the swim suit is the key for the DNA changing, like a way of telling if the body of the player suffered some impact putting a DNA that impact us in a more negative or positive way, or also telling if we got wounded or poisoned and because the masks are different it could probably mean a hologram on the side of the mask just like when showing our oxygen or food, etc. Now a very wild theory: The swim suits and most things don’t have the Aurora symbol but only the color. If we think a bit outside the box it could mean a few things, for example: It could mean the Aurora Is trying to “hide” or “wipe out” the truth and all the horrible things they done in both the normal Subnautica and Subnautica below zero, both ended with more than what? Thousand of people dead, besides the lost of who knows how many billions of dollars in the lost of equipment; With that in mind it could mean they are probably trying to wipe the dust under the carpet to keep studying and experimenting on unknown life. Another thing we can think about is that most of the animals looked to be docile, from the fact that most of the areas where the player was being attacked was in a place with a lot of vegetation, it could mean that those places are the areas with the creatures nests and they are probably just protecting there space; it can also mean that the huge Leviathan with tentacles can probably be a “good” creature, from its possible higher intelligence (like mentioned in the video) by wanting to warn or ask for help, but not like the Sea Emperor instead (hear me out on this one please) it’s to go against the Aurora’s plan and stop there doing of experimenting on the creatures life and probably changing there stable life cycle (Just like the architects). I know it’s big and I’m sorry again. It is probably stupid and I can be saying nonsense, but I don’t know, it came in my mind while watching this video and thought it could probably help in something. I don’t know ;-;. Can’t wait for 2025! And everyone’s little Gargy!
17:54 look above the tail of the creature being scanned, there is like a corridor structure with a statue in it. i also believe based on the creature at the top of the screen, that this is somewhat like a predatorial dolphin, one that can jump above and across the sea like real ones, just because of the tail and dorsal fin structure, could just be me though.
Everything about this looks so cool, and I can't wait to be on the same journey with you to find out how it turns out! Honestly, I'm going to be happy with everything as long as they don't go too crazy with all new stuff and then forget the other two games. I don't remember if there has been any information where this game fits in the timeline but all I wish for is several moments where we realize that they are hinting towards or talking about the happenings on 4546B that we've already seen :D
The movement thingy on the arms seems like a suit upgrade, which means that, differently from the sea glider, it won't take inventory space!! That's a huge improvement.
1:33 I noticed as the creature got closer the screen on the tadpole thing, I don’t know what to call it, started flashing red which could mean that there might be an upgrade to detect hostile creatures approaching, because when the group of fish swam by it didn’t flash red, but when the creature got closer it started flashing red, which could also mean it can detect big creatures. I’m not sure it’s just a theory, something I noticed, I don’t know if he said it or not. But it would be cool, and it’s probably an upgrade you can get for it. Can’t wait for the game!
Just to point out something about the order, it is more or less out of order on purpose. This is common with cinematography where they do a split time line or flashback and forward to present. It helps to explain visually what has happened and why the character is in dire straights at the start. Somewhat similar to what Deadpool has done in every single one of his movies. A bit rehashed I know, but essentially it limits them from having to show and say more than they wish to build hype on the game. Your reaction are quite good tho. Didn’t even realize it finally got announced. I’m hyped.
My theory on the no direct alterra references is that its sort of rival company you’re either working for/using equipment from, the color scheme of everything is very reminiscent of the PDA that the protagonist utilizes in Below Zero
23:35 the fish that is the furthest away has a diferent tail fin (more triangulair). I beleave that that is the jake fish, and that what we see upclose is its dark nephew. If that is the case then maybe this screenshot is take fron a position where you can enter a cave system. Kind of like the lost river (Srr for englisch, not a native)
Interesting note. If you spot it, his suit warns him about oxygen. Yet when she showed up, it stopped, and neither one was worried about it. I wonder if she's generating a field of constant oxygen outside the Tadpole.
I think with the tadpole, its probably going to either be a lifepod type thing where you can pull a player in and save them, or it is a 2 player submarine, where the cockpit will be able to control basic actions and the 2nd player will load weapons or attack, or possibly be a navigator, telling the cockpit where to head to reach a certain point
Exactly...hoping at least that we can get it once they release the full ver of the game..dont just make it as xbox exclusives..waiting 2 years for this now😢
I’m fairly sure it’ll come to PS, but probably in 2027 with the full release. I think it’s just because PlayStation doesn’t have an Early Access system like Xbox/PC platforms.
As someone who is literally studying molecular biology and genetics in university currently, the idea of genetic mutations in subnautica makes me so excited!!
First of, OH MY GOD AM I EXCITED for Subnautica 2! This is gonna be SO awesome! Second of, wanna say I got a Lil Gargy! Happy I got the little guy. Anyways, Subnautica 2, lets goooooi!
17:15 also the fish guy w the eyes on the bottom side of his face, his mouth reminds me a lil bit of both the symbiont fishes in below zero, and the cherlicerate levian's mouth, also in below zero. maybe im just seeing patterns where there arent any though ofc lmfao
Another thing I’m hoping for is a pda like in the first game. Same accent with upgraded functions. Giving you suggestions and tips on how to survive on an alien world. I’m below zero it kinda bosses you around. But the pda in the first game helps you here and there but mostly you figure things out yourself. I like all the in depth analysises we got of the tools and flora/fauna!

Hi
SUBNAUTICA!!!!!!😊
I genuinely wish the 3rd subnautica game was based in the void. So many of us want to know what actually lives in the bottom of the void on 4546B. The void could be maybe 10 times deeper than the challenger deep for all we know! I am so curious about what would exist in the crushing depths of the deep sea on 4546B
Thanks for telling us
Love your content and im grateful that you can make us seee stuff like this

in subnautica's early phase there was a tool able to extract local creatures' dna and implant onto yourself to be more adapted to the world. the transfuser, i think. they did cut it and other tools in the updates. So it's nice if they actually put them back in Subnautica 2
Thats not good at all. That means itll be some rpg bs
@fookoff8660 Proof? I got a proof that you're wrong - in original subnautica's early access, there existed such system, but it was cut from final design, along with legback and prawn suit's detachable cabin. All of that was cut, and what I'm sure about is that the dna-changing tool WAS! simply extracting DNA from creatures we scanned already. Which makes it totally free.
I wonder what will be the limit to this? could you go as far as being able to breath underwater?
One of my favorite things in Subnautica was transforming the Cyclops into a mobile base, stocking up on supplies and then going underwater for an indefinite amount of time, taking my time to enjoy the peace of solitude and beautiful landscapes of the depths, really hope we have a similar sub in Subnautica 2
We have to, especially since multiplayer will be an option PLUS a bigger map. Would suck if there wasn’t a massive mobile base like even a surface boat or something
IMO that was one of the biggest missed opportunities in Subnautica Below Zero; we got a tiny underwater garbage truck instead of a submarine that's big enough to allow you to really explore the world. Like the other comment said, a surface ship would be really cool, especially in conjunction with underwater threats that can't be seen from the surface.
@@tcaprecap1448 I want this map to be big enough to incorporate a big boat that can house all your vehicles, even your submarine. Mobile bases are great haha
@@soldseperately literally what I’ve wanted for years, I hate leaving “things” behind and always hoped they would implement even a moveable base where you can store other, moveable bases if u catch my drift. Just feels right - I remember some of the ideas friends and I had when the game released - damn I wish I kept note they were pretty cool especially any related to this mega base idea. I can’t quite put it into words but it’s almost a relaxing feeling when everything is ‘safe’ and together under cover. In ways it could ruin the game/ or change it drastically especially if u had to call it down from orbit once every so often or something like that. Perhaps to save yourself from harsh weather or unrealistically a huge monster. Not my proudest idea definitely wouldn’t implement this if I could but just showing the idea of how game could totally change. I’ll end up repeating myself about the idea you mentioned but I hope we share this unexplainable feeling, perhaps I’m nuts.
And the worst part was: You had to play trough the end of the game to properly "unlock" better batteries... i always left big ahh alien batteries in the capsule, its a crime to only allow them when you don't really need them anymore.
It would have been way better to give us a (difficult and dangerous, but accessible) way to "farm" them earlier, so you wouldn't have to carry 30+ extra batteries...
The subnautica team is wonderful, it's so rare when a company actually listen to the feedback of players
The feedback it reads feeds from its back.
Depends on the person giving the feedback some can be overdramatic and unprofessional when giving feedback making them sound more like a Karen which a company like other people do avoid cause it would sound like an insult at first look, don't expect someone to listen if you don't care to give respect many companies do their best to deliver which is not easy and to be unappreciated in the end would drive anyone crazy, it's like doing chores for your family just for them to mess up the place for you to clean again
@@HeyLittleTownWell tbh huge companies dont really deserve beating around the bush or respect. Indie teams yes, but if you want change in a big AAA game, you have to be heard.
Looks to me they listened a bit too much to unhinged fans on Reddit. The most hilarious thing I saw there was someone getting downvoted for calling Below Zero a sequel to Subnautica. People are trying to erase the game from history lol, because they didn't like it. Seeing the devs play along in this, I cannot respect that. I remember we were hyped for BZ as a sequel to Subnautica. This is Subnautica 3.
@yan-amar Below Zero was not a proper sequel. If anything, it should've been a DLC at best. It featured less variety in creatures and biomes than the first, there were less dangers, the map felt incredibly small compared to the first, stuff from the first game couldn't be bothered to be added here like the cyclops for example, less leviathan class creatures, a sub-par story. I could go on
Below Zero was NOT a full game. It is NOT subnautica 2. It was a DLC they tried to charge you the price of a game for. Stop kidding yourself.
I love the fact they nailed the "same vibe but different" thing. Its still subnautica and yet it wont feel like 4546b atleast seeing the trailer. I will miss the creepiness of 4546b. Gargantuan leviathans ghost leviathans and the void and the fact the civilized aliens in subnautica earlier found this mysterious planet giving it a "no ones home" middle of nowhere vibe. Yet while the new one they live there like its their home will make it less eerie and mysterious, it still will make it more explorative and intresting due to it being the planets aliens we get something to aviliate the aliens with and let our imagination run far more wild with guessing their culture and so on until newer updates. Especially considering its a newer game having to live up/surpass the first its nostalgia filled and original hype with more content and more interesting details and I might be overhyped but i think its doing an amazing job. I hope there will be more interactivity with creatures like the mesmer was interactive so creatively and so on.
Me too, I love Sub1 because of the aliens😢
I agree with the idea about the submersible becoming a mech because of its name, Tadpole. Maybe like a tadpole, it will be able to have limbs just like a tadpole becoming a frog.
Wait the mech is gonna be called The Frog Mech!
I would love if there was a frog, salamander, and Caecilian attachment to the tadpole as that is the name for the larval stage of all of them. Caecilian would definitely be the closest thing to the cyclops. Frog would be prawn. Salamander could be for shallows exploration. I could see massive tide pools that are rocky.
Yessss omg
this must be it, 100%
@@ashdog9235 I actually agree a lot with Caecilian being the cyclops equivalent, as the sea truck (which looks the most like a caecilian) was the below zero cyclops
The new leviathan seems to be somewhat inspired in design by the Humboldt squid, which gives an idea of what is to come. the Humboldt is both incredibly intelligent and aggressive, also being known to attack divers. it is also really nice to see leviathan designs other than the regular "scary eel like thing"
I love that there is no talking at all. It adds to the creepiness and aloneness
lets hope theres no yapping like BZ
I feel the talking in BZ really, really made the same less scary bc people would actually talk to you and have conversations. I can very much appreciate a game with NO voice conversations (Aside of the sunbeam event which is GREAT imo, That guy is one heck of a voice actor and i've recently asked him to work on the red plague mod)
Well that will all go away once you play it in multiplayer mode and have to hear skibidi being yelled into your ear every 2 minutes.
@@iamnoone940then just dont play with friends that yell skibidi

Beaing
I love it too. A lot of times in the prawn suit I'd need to go somewhere decently far away but either couldn't, or I had to use the cyclops which took awhile. Looks very convenient!
The tadpole is also shaped as a head
i kind of want something big for multiplayer tho like a cyclops or something
Modders, I must make a request
Subnautica 2 could very well be tailored into a 3d barotrauma. Imagine the sheer fun of that chaotic environment in a world this pretty
Eyes positioning in biology and evolution is a good indicator of the species' lifestyle.
If they are positioned lower on a head, or even facing down, it means the specimen needs attention and observation downward. Perhaps for finding food, or be weary of threats from below.
If the eyes are on the side and many, it might give the fish better detection and awareness for any threat coming.
I find speculative biology fascinating, which is what Subnautica is having fun with!
I had thought about that too. Either a bottom feeder, or it could have evolved like that to “trick” potential predators. The first thing that came to mind was the barrel head fish.
This doesn't make sense for everything though, the Gargantuan, the Biter and the other skeleton guy have their eyes on the sides, despite being predators
@@NiCoNiCoNiCola because those animals have three sets of eyes like a spider
@@NiCoNiCoNiCola Its not necessarily the location of the eyes, more where they are pointing. Reapers eyes are on the side, yes, but they are forward facing. It can look directly forwards. An example of this happening IRL is the T-rex, eyes on the side of the head, but still forward facing.
@@CrazyDutchguys Reapers eyes are as front and center as possible, my man's face is shaped like he's a human
I really want an inventory upgrade system, it’s one of my dislikes in subnautica is just like you can’t upgrade your inventory. It would be nice if you could upgrade your inventory. Otherwise I’m super hyped. Another thing I’d love to see is imagine if you could lien raise a leg back and then it could be like a big mobile base that you can build on!
Part of what made the first game so good was that the threats were... well, threats.
No one was going to go out of their way to kill a leviathan, and they were so aggressive and creepy looking/sounding.
So, i hope they add that feeling of "i need to run" when faced with a threat again.
The red screenshot on steam does look unsettling ngl. So it looks like they are focusing on that too
Imma be honest, for me personally below zero does this specific job better. The creatures are generally stronger and the leviathans actually manage to get me thinking about how to avoid them, unlike the original where i just ignore them
@boi2192 Oh yeah, I'm not bashing Below Zero. To be honest, the crystal and fabricator cave biomes were genius. I loved those and their music so much.
The only thing I could say for Below Zero is that i wish there was more danger in the water outside of the caves
Did you not see that Kraken at the end???? How is that not scary to you
@Aska222 No no! That Kraken was scary as hell! But I'm talking about all the other lethiathans that we will probably be seeing for the other 80% of the game.
12:27 I honestly do believe he’s right. Another quite convincing factor is the fact that it has the handlebars on it. Something ONLY seen on the SEA TRUCK. They we’re used to move it into place so it’s the only,y reason I see that they were added.
Personal theory: Maybe the jake fish and shark both evolved with their eyes facing downwards because of the kraken leviathan, coming from below. In the first bit where the kraken is seen the player is sucked DOWNWARD
wdyk leviathans always come from underneath
I LOVE IT SO MUCH THAT YOU USED JAKE FISH HAAHAHHA I AM DEVOTING ALL OF MY FUTURE SN 2 TIME INTO HAVING IT NICKNAMED THAT
@@Anthomnia Jake 🤌
I think if you look, the tadpole does take the general shape of the prawn suit cockpit, with aspects from the sea truck so I imagine it Would attach to something, maby you can attach prawn arms to it so it becomes more like modern day subs that can grab and drill and all sorts
one thing I wish is that they cut down on human screentime to make room for more creatures and environment screentime in the trailer, that's what the players are here for after all
I disagree, you don’t want to spoil too much and this is only the first trailer. Couple new creatures and environments, a big leviathan reveal, and co-op all being revealed is plenty.
@@AleutianSailor Yea I could see your point, excited for the upcoming trailers aswell, a gameplay one would be best. Subnautica 2 is finally here and the community is going to have a very good time
@@AleutianSailori disagree.
The game has so much to offer, that you can cut the ugly human characters and just focus on the game itself.
Can't wait to see the new void leviathan!!
@@meb0y494 I think hiding most of the creatures is better. Gives more mystery
im so excited for this game, i dont think ive ever felt such emotions for a game since the first game came out. my friend has fortunately offered to buy the game for me if its $40 or less. really really really cant wait to hop into this game with him
I think the fish with eye at the bottom has them to avoid the "blue hole" that we see in the trailer.
I have a mini theory that (based on the PDA entry) this is the planet that the cuddle fish originates from.
Would like to point out that in the key art the kraken has similar looking eyes to the sea emperor which may further indicate this could be a friendly big boi like you think
I like the fact that unknown worlds is one of those companied that actually listens to its community and shapes their games around it
What if instead of having individual batteries for each tool, you have a battery for your suit and your tools use that? Cause that looks like what the "wake maker" is doing
14:07 maybe the crab thing is curious about the tadpole, like the way it's looking at it makes me think it could be investigating the submarine
This would tie into Subnautica 1 and the vision Charlie had for that game when he was CEO. Back then he did a interview where he said he wanted creatures to interact in different ways when faced with scenarios, Fear, Attack, Curious, etc etc. Much of it had to be scrapped because back then computers weren't really powerful enough to process so much code though that exact code is IN subnautica as of today, My personal devs for the Red Plague Lee23 and Lilly23 confirmed it and showed me. There's a ton of creature behaviors that are just not used. I think there's a very, very strong chance you're right and what you're saying is more correct than what i said in the video with it being a neutral creature.
Anthy geeking now theres finally more sub content to cover on. haha. So stoked!
Man, I'm very interested in playing Subnautica 2. I can't wait for the Early Access release. I started playing when there were no textures on the disease research complex yet and even caught the first versions of Below Zero. Thanks for the video and such a detailed analysis. We'll stay tuned
Honestly the top of the squid monster looks like a comb jelly fish, super cool regardles😁👍
Bet its like the crabsquid and thats its stomach
Odd that the oxygen warning seems to disappear just by the "Tadpole" being within proximity to the player. New O2 replenishment mechanic?
makes it look like the tadpole will have a proximity alarm as well.
Like an O² tether from something like astroneer?
I DIDN'T PICK UP ON THIS GOOD EYE!!!
@@driftdylan this brings back memories
@@driftdylan fire reference, cant wait for dlc
I cannot wait to be running out of oxygen then hear “the Bluetooth device has connected successfully”

Welcome back fren, Hope you enjoy!!
I'm very happy that "Unknown Worlds Entertainmen" make such pioneer games all subnautica games are masterpieces.
i really want to see such games.
I kinda like the idea of calling the crustacean leviathan a Coralback or something, instead of a Legback to signify the life on it's back.
How about....the coral hermit?
Cause hermit crab+coral?
@@raylenn4444 too big not to be a leviathan and they will want the names of their creatures to sound good when you pronounce them

@@destroyerofturtles5024 it sounds cringe.
Legback just implies that he's got legs on his back.
Coral hermit/reef hermit makes more sense and is cooler imo.
25:04 This might be a stretch, but it also seems like the purple coral formation on the left is akin to that of some crustacean leg (maybe legback). Which further hints at legbacks, or some creatures, becoming a part of the environment.

Hopefully it’ll come to Subnautica 2 in a much bigger, more robust, and more advanced form while still retaining its iconic design and shape, but we’ll just have to wait and see!
"Warning, entering Ecological Deadzone"
Honestly i hope they do add a massive submarine, As large or larger than the Atlas with purpose. The map will be so large realistically i can see them choosing to have a few subs for different purposes!!
@@Anthomniai think it would be cool if they did a massive submarine with spider legs whose main purpose is to just be a mobile customizable base with big windows
If you look at your thumbs in the wakemaker picture, I feel like it has a boost, there are definitely some buttons.

I SAW XBOX POST THE TEASER TRAILER AND WAS HYPED. I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS TODAY!!!
19:44 head me out. That’s a swim charge suit like we saw with the fins in subnautica 1. You swim and it powers the tool you’re holding.
the sub also has a push bar just like the seatruck so another thing that supports it being a modular sub
WHAT A GOOD EYE, YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT THANK YOU FOR COMMENTING THIS!!
I think that bar on the side is for other players to hang on while its moving
@@_jake_b9307 then why is it on the side of the sub, that would make it so hard to hold on. it should be on the back below or above the motor if that was its purpose
Cant wait to play this (in my opinion already looking like a) masterpiece of a game, thx for the community connection and all the Info Anthomnia, you rock!
Also noticed in the trailer that as the sub diver approaches the unconscious diver, the oxygen alert seems to go away, perhaps indicating that we can share oxygen with each other in dire situations? Could just be for the sake of the trailer though and I could be reading into it too much. 😂😅
yoooooo! ITS FINALLY HERE!!
(also I supported you Anthomnia by buying the little Gargy plushie, enjoy my support!)
I also think the the new vehicle is like a 3 in 1 vehicle. i think that u can attach different parts to it to make it either a mech or a small "base" like the seatruck. Or you can just use the base vehicle like the seamoth.
mech frog
@@LightYagami-tf7ig yes
"y u lookin tho?" on 18:47 is hilarious 😂
I could be crazy, but in the main picture with the squid and the two divers it looks like there was a second pair of eyes in the head of the squid? A parasitic creature in control of the squid would be so dark and cool! But two creatures with a symbiotic relationship would be interesting as well. 😮
This is a wild take and i fully support it, Holy crap that's some deep thought
The biggest thing I loved about Subnautica was the idea of surviving underwater and building a base but the thing that felt empty to me is that I had no one to share it with the only way I could share. My bill is through screenshots and posting them, but that wasn’t even enough to satisfy me. I wanted more I wanted multiplayer. I wanted to be ability to play the game with my husband Now I will be able to and that makes me very very happy. I want to even be able to play it with some of my friends online that also love underwater aquatic games. This is going to make things so much more interesting to be able to actually explore the water with friends. . I’m a professional diver and I love to dive and swim underwater so that being said that is actually quite fun with a partner so they should have multiplayer in games like this ! I’m glad they decided to listen to the player base.
imagine if the tadpol was like the control section of a massive ship and you could release the tadpol from the main sub and scout around with it and when your done you attach back to the main sub like a sea truck and then you can drive the big sub and exit from it
thats what i thought :D, i also thought it could be similar to the escape pods you can see on the atlas submarine, but rather its 4 deployable submarines for you and your team, that connects back to a mothership/hq style ship
@@JackBrady-d5q thats a sick idea too :D
nah its definitely the center part of a frog mech, that why its called tadpole, like how a tadpole grows limbs when evolving into a frog
Loving your content man. KEEP IT UP BRO!!!
Oh my goodness. I even played the series in a very long time. And I really wanna play it after seeing this trailer. Oh my goodness I can't wait to play this game again and and the sequel.Oh my goodness, this is really exciting to me
One note on the "legback": if they are indeed a crab/ crustation, then they grow their entire life and shed their skin/ shell once in a while. This could explain the "juvinile" form we see in the picture which has no coral growth. This one has recently shedded it's shell. Compare that to the one "adult" form which is completly covered in coral probably hasn't shed in a verry long time. Side note on crustation and their shedding: When a crustation gets older, the interfalls between shedding also gets longer
Oh man I am SO hyped for this game to come out
I stumbled across your channel accidentally and holy I love you already
I think the new squid monster is an enemy leviathan, the sea emperor was originally supposed to be bad but they changed it. I don't think they'll do the same with this one. Also it doesn't have a name yet so im gonna call it "the architeuthis leviathan" for now. It's totally different from the new crab one that's probably gonna be the new sea threaders.
theyre not showing the enemy in trailer i think, the kraken will get killed by whats rly lurking
and the kraken is there for a first jumpscare and to warn us, so when we get word it is killed by sonething bigger we become extra scared to scout the deep
absolutely love your detailed style of analysis
I can incorporate their genetics into me? That sounds amazing. Now to steal the DNA of the kraken and get tentacles.

Evolution is the way creatures use to adapt to there surroundings. My thoughts is this creature evolved to see something below it, either it being a creature that eat crabs or leg bassed prey on the sea floor, or it being sn ambushe predator that lingers close to the surface and attacks down when it sees food. 16:29
I really want some more of the farming mechanics. Ik that sounds really boring but I really enjoyed that aspect of the game.
I also really really want more environment based buildings. Like the sea truck aquarium module but like a room or some other things designed for observing the wildlife.
Additionally more unique AI would be interesting. It really adds to the ecosystem and is interesting to watch. Showing how the world operates without us.
the ai of fauna will be more complex and interactional with the flora/surroundings too the devs already stated
Farming is just preparation and that's a huge part of any survival game. I am in agreement with you!
Speaking of farming, i want plants that can only be placed in water on foundations have a way to harvest them without being in the complete open, like special thing that blocks any air but pumps water in or something even if its very expensive to craft
@@teme7354 Good idea
A few things I noticed or theorize. The Jake Fish is basically a claw machine claw with its mouth shape and theorized hunting style; plus its white underbelly supports that it stays high to be camouflaged. The diving masks are the same at the end her hair just covers part of it and makes it look different. The oxygen packs are the same but might be thinner/wider depending on gender (men usually have broader chests). I think the flippers are the same but the female character's flippers are wore out and parts of them missing which would both explain the shoe showing through and the different patterns. Good analysis. also the building you get a better look at in the beginning during the ReefLeg® scene is the same one you see at the beginning just a closer view. Squid have a siphon jet they use to move quickly maybe they took that idea and reversed it to draw things in.
When he showed those hand seagliders, that looks like it can be vr friendly, and you can play vr with subnautica 2
nightmare in those proportions
That would be amazingly terrifying
What we definitely need is something big like the atlas it's literally probably the most famous mod in subnautica some big sub is needed for subnautica 2 cause there will clearly be some deep oceans
18:47 you got me
Fr
Lol
Same 😭
During your explanations i noticed smth: Have ya'll noticed that the shark from both the lava zone screenshot and one of the first shared pictures of the game also evolved to have his eyes beneath his mouth, as the jack fish? The jack fish might even be the juvenile version of that shark, as they both have this specific upside-down face. But they also could be different species, that have both evolved to be scared of a danger coming from the surface. Maybe they were scared about the civilization that occupied the ruins, as they might've hunted them?
14:33 those hoopfish things are seeing in 8k ultra wide
Another thing, why did he say "they look like hoopfish relatives" like your on Another planet sir
Might also be eye patterning to scare off predators since eyes do seem to be a theme of the animals here
Biblically accurate peepers
i would really love a deep sea area that literally has 0 light except some creatures bioluminesance and the light that you bring down there. cause usually subnautica has some glowing plant life or some glowing lava oceans to give ambiance. but i want PITCH BLACK waters
i believe the vehicle you seen in this, is a pod. wich deattach from a bigger vehicle or station maybe. even a ship
10:05 bro omg i was playing Subnautica and then he said “sea emperor” and then the sea emperor contacted me omg i got so scared lol😂
on 06:47 , the upper left side of the background, near a fume, there's something like a face. i thought "maybe only an illusion due to the background blur", but after it, Anthomnia talks about a face on the nearest rock on the lower left. It's highly possible the ancient ruins where the MC is in this trailer was a temple or a cathedral. the ruins in the back reminds me of european styled windows and architecture. Possibly alien ruins based on such style..
Hi, I’m a new subscriber and I’m one of the people that don’t talk at all but i follow the news of Subnautica and got some courage to send this message. I wanted to give probably some theory’s from a few things it says in the video, the swim suit, the DNA and probably some wild ideas.
(I’m so sorry, I write a lot and I like exposing some ideas. Again sorry ;-;)
The swim suit with the DNA too: From it being a higher level of technology it could probably mean a few things, for example: it could have some kind of solar energy charging system, because in most of the images and in the video the line lights of the swim suit are only glowing brighter when the player is exposed to sunlight; It could also mean that the swim suit is the key for the DNA changing, like a way of telling if the body of the player suffered some impact putting a DNA that impact us in a more negative or positive way, or also telling if we got wounded or poisoned and because the masks are different it could probably mean a hologram on the side of the mask just like when showing our oxygen or food, etc.
Now a very wild theory: The swim suits and most things don’t have the Aurora symbol but only the color. If we think a bit outside the box it could mean a few things, for example: It could mean the Aurora Is trying to “hide” or “wipe out” the truth and all the horrible things they done in both the normal Subnautica and Subnautica below zero, both ended with more than what? Thousand of people dead, besides the lost of who knows how many billions of dollars in the lost of equipment;
With that in mind it could mean they are probably trying to wipe the dust under the carpet to keep studying and experimenting on unknown life.
Another thing we can think about is that most of the animals looked to be docile, from the fact that most of the areas where the player was being attacked was in a place with a lot of vegetation, it could mean that those places are the areas with the creatures nests and they are probably just protecting there space; it can also mean that the huge Leviathan with tentacles can probably be a “good” creature, from its possible higher intelligence (like mentioned in the video) by wanting to warn or ask for help, but not like the Sea Emperor instead (hear me out on this one please) it’s to go against the Aurora’s plan and stop there doing of experimenting on the creatures life and probably changing there stable life cycle (Just like the architects).
I know it’s big and I’m sorry again. It is probably stupid and I can be saying nonsense, but I don’t know, it came in my mind while watching this video and thought it could probably help in something. I don’t know ;-;.
Can’t wait for 2025! And everyone’s little Gargy!
17:54 look above the tail of the creature being scanned, there is like a corridor structure with a statue in it. i also believe based on the creature at the top of the screen, that this is somewhat like a predatorial dolphin, one that can jump above and across the sea like real ones, just because of the tail and dorsal fin structure, could just be me though.
Everything about this looks so cool, and I can't wait to be on the same journey with you to find out how it turns out!
Honestly, I'm going to be happy with everything as long as they don't go too crazy with all new stuff and then forget the other two games. I don't remember if there has been any information where this game fits in the timeline but all I wish for is several moments where we realize that they are hinting towards or talking about the happenings on 4546B that we've already seen :D
Getting called out by anthomnia is not something I expected to happen today
y u looking tho?
The movement thingy on the arms seems like a suit upgrade, which means that, differently from the sea glider, it won't take inventory space!! That's a huge improvement.
Finally, i can waste more time underwater
It's never a waste of time if you're having fun!!
@@Anthomnia yeah, having fun dying 200 times and having my life flash before my eyes when some big ah fish comes at me
1:33 I noticed as the creature got closer the screen on the tadpole thing, I don’t know what to call it, started flashing red which could mean that there might be an upgrade to detect hostile creatures approaching, because when the group of fish swam by it didn’t flash red, but when the creature got closer it started flashing red, which could also mean it can detect big creatures. I’m not sure it’s just a theory, something I noticed, I don’t know if he said it or not. But it would be cool, and it’s probably an upgrade you can get for it. Can’t wait for the game!
7:05 It looks like a giant boomerang
Just to point out something about the order, it is more or less out of order on purpose. This is common with cinematography where they do a split time line or flashback and forward to present. It helps to explain visually what has happened and why the character is in dire straights at the start. Somewhat similar to what Deadpool has done in every single one of his movies. A bit rehashed I know, but essentially it limits them from having to show and say more than they wish to build hype on the game. Your reaction are quite good tho. Didn’t even realize it finally got announced. I’m hyped.
6:09 Reefcrab is right there.
Or Reefwalker.
My theory on the no direct alterra references is that its sort of rival company you’re either working for/using equipment from, the color scheme of everything is very reminiscent of the PDA that the protagonist utilizes in Below Zero
That new sub looks like a newer version of the sea truck
23:35 the fish that is the furthest away has a diferent tail fin (more triangulair). I beleave that that is the jake fish, and that what we see upclose is its dark nephew.
If that is the case then maybe this screenshot is take fron a position where you can enter a cave system. Kind of like the lost river
(Srr for englisch, not a native)
6:07 it looks like a mix between a rifeback and a crabsquid
Interesting note. If you spot it, his suit warns him about oxygen. Yet when she showed up, it stopped, and neither one was worried about it. I wonder if she's generating a field of constant oxygen outside the Tadpole.
6:44 the structures could be like Atlantis
Or a old abandoned base
Like the Degasui bases
Because if you look closely they kind of look like a multipurpose room
I think with the tadpole, its probably going to either be a lifepod type thing where you can pull a player in and save them, or it is a 2 player submarine, where the cockpit will be able to control basic actions and the 2nd player will load weapons or attack, or possibly be a navigator, telling the cockpit where to head to reach a certain point

I'm so excited for subnatica 2. I'm going to buy the game when it comes out
I just hope it comes to PS5, I got the plat for both of the other games, I would be deeply upset if I couldn't play this one lol
Same but Mac
@daiddayl9744 it'll be on steam so it's inherently on mac
Exactly...hoping at least that we can get it once they release the full ver of the game..dont just make it as xbox exclusives..waiting 2 years for this now😢
I’m fairly sure it’ll come to PS, but probably in 2027 with the full release. I think it’s just because PlayStation doesn’t have an Early Access system like Xbox/PC platforms.
@@daiddayl9744mac won’t run this
As someone who is literally studying molecular biology and genetics in university currently, the idea of genetic mutations in subnautica makes me so excited!!
First of, OH MY GOD AM I EXCITED for Subnautica 2! This is gonna be SO awesome! Second of, wanna say I got a Lil Gargy! Happy I got the little guy. Anyways, Subnautica 2, lets goooooi!
I’m SO EXCITED. THE LEVIATHANS IT ALL LOOKS GREAT. I also got a lil Gargy, I’m excited for it to arrive
Edit:fixed typo
Do you think the plush is gonna be instock again?
I sadly missed it😔
@@midnightaurora9483 I don’t think so no. Sad you missed it
@Ghosty_YT307 damn, ok thanks👍
17:15 also the fish guy w the eyes on the bottom side of his face, his mouth reminds me a lil bit of both the symbiont fishes in below zero, and the cherlicerate levian's mouth, also in below zero. maybe im just seeing patterns where there arent any though ofc lmfao
Another thing I’m hoping for is a pda like in the first game. Same accent with upgraded functions. Giving you suggestions and tips on how to survive on an alien world. I’m below zero it kinda bosses you around. But the pda in the first game helps you here and there but mostly you figure things out yourself. I like all the in depth analysises we got of the tools and flora/fauna!
6:18 better idea: reefcrab leviathan.
