Modders have brought multiplayer to Subnautica
The current version of Nitrox includes all the basics, like synced character movement, item gathering, base building, power use, and vehicle interaction – but this is still an alpha. The developers note that the install process is still “not suited for the faint-hearted” and that “until a stable version is released, this mod is not recommended for casual play.”
Nitrox is open source, and the intent of this release is to get it out into the hands of more people so that the community can help contribute to the mod’s development. Getting multiplayer into Subnautica is no easy task. As the devs noted in a forum post back in 2017, Subnautica was initially built as a small, single-player game. “It is a large undertaking to rework many of the core systems to work for multiplayer, and devoting even 1 developer to working on co-op would have meant the core game we were trying to make would have suffered.”
That post adds “We fully support the effort Sunrunner is putting into this mod, and are as interested as everyone else to see how it turns out. But we don’t have any misconceptions about how much work it is going to be to get a fully working and polished multiplayer version of SN done.”

This looks awesome it looks like it works which is just incredible for modders nowwa days I'm not saying we haven't done crazy things in the past but with most games like this it's hard to introduce a feature that not even the devs have put in there then for it to be stable is even more of a dream come true.
