Sure thing! Here we go:

Oh man, August 12 was a day, right? So Unknown Worlds dropped updates for Subnautica and its sibling, Subnautica: Below Zero. I mean, nothing earth-shattering, just some bug fixes. But, here’s a twist—Subnautica got this whole new controller support thing going for Steam and Epic Games Store players. A bit late to the party, but hey, better late than never?
Picture this: you’re exploring the vast ocean of an alien world, and suddenly, your game freezes. Well, that’s not gonna happen anymore—hopefully. They’ve finally patched those pesky glitches. But what’s really cool—or maybe I’m just easily impressed—is how you can now use controllers like the PS5 DualSense or Xbox Wireless ones on your PC. Wireless or wired; your choice. It’s kinda like giving the game a new pair of shoes, all thanks to an update on that Unity input system. Tech stuff, yada yada, but it’s a big deal, okay!
But man, there’s drama lurking behind the scenes. The folks at Unknown Worlds were apparently in a spat with Krafton—like, big lawsuit style. Something about pushing back Subnautica 2 to avoid a hefty payout. Juicy, eh? Anyway, Krafton’s response hit the courtroom on, you guessed it, August 12.
Now, not to leave Below Zero out—all eyes were on the Snowfox vehicle there, getting its issues fixed. You know, collision detection chaos and the like. Plus, they’ve introduced this cool newsfeed for updates. Too bad Nintendo Switch owners missed out this round, but updates for the Switch are supposedly in the works. Fingers crossed.
Funny thing, support isn’t just dropping because Subnautica 2 is delayed till 2026—those patch notes are here to prove it. Speaking of patch notes, do you even read those? Most of us just dive back in, right? Anyway, here’s a splash of it:
– For Subnautica: Pop-up newsfeed, bug fixes, and controller magic.
– For Below Zero: Snowfox upgrades and tweaks.
There’s more, but my eyes glazed over.
Honestly, the whole saga’s like a soap opera but with underwater aliens. Can’t wait to see what happens next!
