Where to Find Guides and Checklists
- Utilize Community Wikis: Access early versions of community-driven wikis that include interactive maps, fauna, items, and mini-games. The map shows resources, creatures, landmarks, biomes and more.
- Explore Completion Checklists: Refer to community-built 100% completion checklists for all aspects of the game, including biomes, base items, flora, fauna, and vehicles. We're building the Subnautica 2 100% Checklist for completionists!
- Be Wary of Early Guides: Exercise caution with newly released guides, as some may be AI-generated or contain information from previous Subnautica titles, leading to inaccuracies.
Subnautica 2 Easter Eggs
- Discover Environmental Jokes: Look for subtle and humorous environmental placements by the developers, such as a worm with stick hands and black eyes doing.. something.
- Find Unique Coral Formations: Keep an eye out for unusual coral arrangements, including a coral DJ hanging out in some rocks.
- Encounter Unexplained Phenomena: Some players have reported seeing an angry face in deep, unexplored areas, which might be a placeholder or another hidden surprise.
General Subnautica Guide Philosophy
- Prioritize Exploration: The core of the Subnautica experience is self-discovery; avoid excessive use of guides on your first playthrough to preserve the sense of wonder. The exploration process is point of this game — so explore.
- Blind Playthrough Recommended: Many Redditors advocate for playing the game without guides to fully appreciate the narrative and exploration. A blind playthrough is critical to the first time player experience.
- Use Guides for Specific Stumbling Blocks: If you find yourself genuinely stuck, use spoiler-marked guides to get a nudge without ruining the overall experience. This guide aims to relieve some of the more frustrating areas by providing brief, mostly-spoiler-free guidelines.
