Unknown Worlds Entertainment filed a breach of contract lawsuit against KRAFTON after their termination earlier this month. The legal documents reveal disputes over a $250 million performance bonus tied to revenue targets for Subnautica 2. KRAFTON purchased the studio for $500 million in 2021 with additional payments contingent on meeting financial milestones by 2025. The co-founders claim KRAFTON deliberately sabotaged the game's early access launch to avoid paying the substantial bonus.

Charles Cleveland, Max McGuire, and Ted Gill accuse KRAFTON of withdrawing marketing support and abandoning promotional partnerships. The publisher allegedly admitted that releasing Subnautica 2 in 2025 would create financial disaster for the company. KRAFTON fired the three executives and postponed the game until 2026 after seizing control of Unknown Worlds. The lawsuit challenges KRAFTON's assertions about the game's readiness and disputes claims that the co-founders abandoned their responsibilities.
