With just 8 live days and 4 million copies already sold, the devs of Subnautica 2 are on their way to get their bonus check right now. But it is not only they celebrating. Unknown Worlds knows well how to treat its players, and that’s why the second Hotfix of the game has just gone live.
Subnautica 2 Early Access Hotfix 2 Patch Notes

Our second hotfix for Subnautica 2 is here! We’ve added more resource areas, adjusted Hammerhead behavior, fixed a few bugs and crashes, and made some changes to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Additional changes are currently being worked on to address community feedback on creature balance and overall graphics performance. We will continue to roll out those changes in the coming weeks.
Check out the full list of changes in the patch below:
Added more Silver resource areas in the early game region
Added more Troilite resource areas in the late-game region
Adjusted Hammerhead behavior so they are no longer as attracted to Tadpole lights. This previously resulted in Hammerheads following players, even back to their bases, and hanging out there trying to reach the Tadpole
Fixed a bug where players could occasionally be teleported back to their base while exploring in a Tadpole
Fixed an infinite oxygen bug after a player died of hunger or thirst while piloting a Tadpole
Resolved a crash that could occur when losing connection from a multiplayer game
Fixed a crash that could occur randomly in the late game region
Improved performance when using Epic visual settings
Added a callout to let players know that telemetry can be turned off at any time from settings
This callout is only available in English and will be translated in the next patch
