Ahead of the 14 May early-access launch, the First Dive Showcase video previews survival gameplay, including tools, crafting, weapons and a darker narrative aboard the colony ship CICADA.
The teaser frames players as pioneers stranded after a mission goes wrong, while developers said the sequel retains the original game's unsettling tension and fear factor.
Unknown Worlds also said first-week buyers will get a buildable in-game Reaper statue, following a pre-launch showcase that included developer demos, giveaways and Twitch Drops.
