Krafton terminated the game leads’ contracts “without valid cause”, a judge has ruled…

Pretty wild!

    It’s not yet been decided what monetary damages, if any, will result from the ruling, nor is it clear if Subnautica 2’s release will be affected.

    Sounds to me like fair damages would start with removing Unknown Worlds from Krafton’s ownership.

      Would absolutely love that. Just split the two. Unknown Worlds cut loose, existing publishing agreements severed, they walk away with a developed game and their IP. Free to contract with Krafton or anyone else to distribute the game, or they could just self-publish pretty easily.

      Sadly I doubt that will happen but we can always hope.
