A court denied two requests from Krafton against Unknown Worlds co-founders regarding the Subnautica 2 legal dispute. The publisher sought forensic inspection and preservation orders against Ted Gill, Max McGuire, and Charlie Cleveland. Both motions were deemed unnecessary by the presiding judge.
Krafton altered its central argument during proceedings, shifting from claims about premature game release to accusations about file downloads. The company initially stated the founders attempted launching Subnautica 2 before completion. Krafton later argued termination resulted from unauthorized file access discovered after dismissals occurred.
Fortis Advisors represents the dismissed co-founders and characterized the strategy change as desperate legal maneuvering. Judge Lori Will expressed confusion about Krafton removing early release claims from its position. The publisher has provided limited email evidence and avoided cooperation with opposing counsel.
Both parties agreed to confer as litigation advances. The dispute involves allegations of wrongful termination and corporate misconduct surrounding the anticipated underwater survival sequel.
