Looks like Subnautica devs have been sneakily posting Subnautica 2 screenshots in the original game (www.eurogamer.net)

Unknown Worlds Entertainment is currently making another Subnautica game. They are publicly referring to it as "Subnautica 2." So apparently they consider Below Zero to be a standalone expansion to Subnautica a bit like Half-Life: Opposing Force rather than a full sequel.

A few things that I have heard the developers confirm about this new game:

It will take place in the same universe as the first two games.
It will not take place on planet 4546B
There will be swimming in it
There will be submarines in it. Plural.
It will be co-op capable. If I understand what they've communicated right, it is going to be a single-player game that will have a "join game" button so you can invite a small number of buddies to join you.
From the screenshots they've shown, there's going to be colorful ocean wildlife in it.
According to the Wiki, one of the original concept artists and the composer for Below Zero's soundtrack are working on it.

They're playing a lot of details close to the chest for now, very few gameplay or story concepts have been discussed. It is very likely going to be an ocean survival game with a nonzero chance of having your submarine bitten off by a 300 foot scream eel.
