Is Subnautica 2 on Game Pass?
Subnautica 2 early access is available on Xbox Game Pass, but it's titled Subnautica 2 (Game Preview). As I've mentioned above, though, Subnautica 2 early access is only available on Game Pass to those with an Ultimate subscription.
If you have either Premium or Essential, you can go into your Xbox subscription settings and upgrade your current subscription if you want to. You don't even have to pay a penny; your current subscription will just be shortened by a relative period, so it's worth considering if you're a big Subnautica fan.
The other good news is that Subnautica 2 early access is going to launch on Game Pass on day one, as the Subnautica 2 early access release time hits for everyone, so you won't miss out on a moment.
We don't know how long Subnautica 2 will stick around for on Game Pass, the preview may well hang around until the game's full launch, which doesn't have a release date yet. All we know if that the original game came to Game Pass around a year after it's full release and stuck around for a good three years, so you've probably got plenty of time either way.
