With the EA2 Update, new lifeforms such as the [Tar Eel](Tar Eel) and [Descender](Descender) will be introduced.+Currently, the region exists in a very early state within the game, featuring virtually no resources or lifeforms. With the upcoming EA2 Update, new lifeforms such as the [Tar Eel](Tar Eel) and [Descender](Descender) are expected to be introduced.  -![Scorpius Wreck](Scorpius Wreck.png)-  ## Overview  -### In-game-Based on the current in-game layout, Scorpius will be the largest and deepest region to date.+### In-game Status+Based on the current in-game layout, Scorpius is projected to be the largest and deepest region in Subnautica 2 to date. The region is divided into three code-named sections:  -The region is divided into three code-named sections: *   **Sargas**: An open plain. *   **Lesath**: A series of fractured steps and trenches. *   **Antares**: A large tar lake.   A trail of unfinished [Cicada](Cicada) debris can be followed from the top of Sargas, through Lesath, and down to the bottom of Antares.  -South of Sargas is a drained reservoir that once held tar, which has since spilled out and flooded the rest of the region. Presently, this is where the [Collector Leviathan](Collector Leviathan) is located, as well as a small meeting of four [Waterslugs](Waterslug).+South of Sargas lies a drained reservoir that once held tar, which has since spilled out and flooded the rest of the region. Currently, this reservoir is the location of the [Collector Leviathan](Collector Leviathan), as well as a small group of four [Waterslugs](Waterslug).  -With the exception of the reservoir, the entire region is currently beyond the Early Access barrier, meaning that attempted exploration will bring with it the threat of [Shiver Leviathans](Shiver Leviathan).+With the exception of the reservoir, the entire region is currently beyond the [Early Access Barrier](Early Access Barrier). Attempted exploration in these areas brings the threat of [Shiver Leviathans](Shiver Leviathan).   ### Future Content-In the future, Scorpius will be home to many more lifeforms including, and perhaps most notably, a large population of [Great Jaws](Great Jaw). The Collector Leviathan currently found at the reservoir will likely be moved to a deeper part of the region.+In future updates, Scorpius will host a wider variety of lifeforms, most notably a large population of [Great Jaws](Great Jaw). The Collector Leviathan currently found at the reservoir is expected to be moved to a deeper part of the region.  -Based on concept art and developer videos, the [Axum](Axum) will have had a strong presence in the region, including a large dam in Sargas that was made to restrict the flow of tar. The dam has seemingly since been sabotaged.+Concept art and developer videos indicate that the [Axum](Axum) faction had a strong presence in this area. This includes a large dam in Sargas designed to restrict the flow of tar, which appears to have been sabotaged.  -In addition to a wreck containing [Bullfrog Workmech](Bullfrog Workmech) fragments, the [BigSub](BigSub) itself will also be found somewhere in this region, waiting to be restored.+Additionally, the region will contain:+*   A wreck containing [Bullfrog Workmech](Bullfrog Workmech) fragments.+*   The [BigSub](BigSub) itself, waiting to be restored.   ## Gallery   ### In-game ![An early tar cascade](Scorpius Tar Cascade.png) ![A trench](Scorpius Trench.png) ![A large wreck on top a tar lake](Scorpius Wreck.png) ![Fog-disabled overview of the entire region](Scorpius No Fog.png)   ### Concept Art-![[Concept Art] of a biome within the Scorpius region.](Collector_Biome_concept_art.png)+![Concept Art of a biome within the Scorpius region](Collector_Biome_concept_art.png) ![Another biome](Scorpius Concept Art.jpg)   ## Trivia-*   All code-names for this region are based around the constellation Scorpius, with Sargas, Lesath, and Antares being three of its stars.+*   All code-names for this region are based on the constellation [Scorpius](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scorpius), with [Sargas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_Scorpii), [Lesath](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upsilon_Scorpii), and [Antares](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antares) being three of its stars.   ## References-1.
