Subnautica 2 Base Parts

A practical index for Habitat Builder unlocks, rooms, corridors, hatches, power systems, storage, and vehicle-support pieces without pretending every recipe is final. Hotfix 3 adds one official cost fact: Interior Walls now cost one quarter of their previous price.

Early Access rule: base-part names, recipes, and unlock order can change. We can cite the Hotfix 3 Interior Wall reduction now; the rest of the table still waits for official or in-game recipe checks.

Refund and relocation

Live guide

Move a bad first base without turning every misplaced corridor into a long manual cleanup.

Base planning rules

Build near oxygen first

The best first base is boring: close to the Lifepod, easy to return to, and supplied by starter resources.

Leave vehicle clearance

Do not fill every flat patch. Public base-location guidance calls out leaving room for later vehicle support.

Use Hotfix 3 Interior Wall costs

Hotfix 3 reduced Interior Wall costs to one quarter of the previous price, so older base-material estimates can be too expensive.

Separate power from decoration

Roof-mounted solar rules, turbine routes, and later power systems matter more than cosmetic layout.

Tracked base-part names

These building and station entries connect the current base routes, power systems, storage, and vehicle support pages.

Base Parts FAQ

Is this a complete Subnautica 2 base parts list?

No. It covers the early Habitat Builder route, rooms, corridors, power, storage, utilities, and vehicle support.

Why not publish every room and module now?

Base modules are patch-sensitive and some external database-style pages appear to expose game-data-derived entries. We use those as demand signals, not as copyable game data.

What should I build first?

Unlock the Habitat Builder, place a small powered base near safe oxygen access, add storage, then plan power and vehicle clearance before expanding.

Did Hotfix 3 change base building costs?

Yes. Unknown Worlds says Interior Wall costs were reduced to one quarter of their previous price.
