Nexon describes the pack as free and planned for early 2027. Store requirements and availability may vary by platform, so check the listing for your platform as release approaches.
What game do you need to play the pack?
On Steam, you need the base game Dave the Diver. Its content-pack listing identifies that game as required; it does not say that you must own Subnautica or Subnautica 2. See the Steam content-pack listing.

The crossover’s name and setting do not make the Subnautica games prerequisites. The confirmed requirement is the Dave the Diver base game, not another game in the Subnautica series.

Is the pack free, and when is it planned?
Nexon describes the content pack as a free expansion planned for early 2027. MINTROCKET’s Steam announcement also gives early 2027 as the planned timing for Steam. These are announced plans, not a confirmed release date; check the relevant store listing for updates as launch gets closer. Nexon’s announcement and MINTROCKET’s Steam announcements provide the publisher details.

Which platforms are listed?
Nexon lists pack pages for Steam, Epic Games Store, and Xbox. Its broader list of platforms for Dave the Diver also includes Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, iOS, and Android. That broader list does not establish that the pack will be available on every platform that has the base game.
If you play somewhere other than Steam, check that platform’s own store page for both pack availability and its stated requirements. The Steam prerequisite should not be treated as a definitive statement of every other platform’s store rules.

What does the crossover include?
The official announcements describe Dave and Bancho heading to Proteus, where they explore, help new friends, and encounter unfamiliar creatures. Nexon also mentions discovering resources and creating recipes. These are high-level announcement details, not a complete feature list or hands-on description of the finished pack, and details may change before release.
Nexon currently describes the collaboration as the planned final DLC for Dave the Diver. That is the publisher’s stated plan, not a guarantee that plans cannot change.
