The main source of this news is an announcement posted by Unknown Worlds Entertainment. The website of the study concerns the search for new employees, including someone for the position of Senior Narrative Designer. According to the information contained therein, the main task of the hired person would be to supervise the work on the plot of a new game from the world of Subnautica .
The only bad news about this news is the potential release date for a new installment in the series. Since the advertisement is from the last few days and the search for employees is still ongoing, it can be safely assumed that the work is still at a very early stage. The premiere, then, will probably not take place sooner than in 2-3 years.
So far, two games in the Subnautica series have appeared . The first debuted in 2018 on computers, and the sequel, titled Below Zero , was released last year. The game takes us to an alien planet mostly covered with oceans. Our main tasks are to explore the depths and discover the secrets beneath the surface of the waters of this new world.
