Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an official Subnautica 2 checklist?
No. This is a fan-made checklist, not affiliated with Unknown Worlds, Krafton, or the official Subnautica 2 team. It is based on community play of the Early Access build.
Will my progress be lost if I clear my browser cache?
Yes. Progress is stored in your browser's localStorage under the key guidecratehub_subnautica2_checklist. Clearing browser data removes it. Use the Reset button to clear progress manually.
What do the status badges (WIP / Confirmed / Needs Verification) mean?
They reflect how confident the community data is. Confirmed items are well-established in Early Access. WIP items are likely accurate but may change with patches. Needs Verification items are from early community reports and should be double-checked in-game.
Where can I find the Laser Cutter in Subnautica 2?
Location data is still being gathered by the community. See the Subnautica 2 Laser Cutter Location Tracker for the current verification status — no confirmed location has been independently verified yet.
How often is this checklist updated?
We update when community data is verified or when patches change gameplay fundamentals. Check the Last updated date at the top. The "After Updates" group is a reminder to re-validate items after major patches.
