About This Crafting Guide

This fan-made reference lists Early Access crafting recipes for Subnautica 2 with ingredient lists, unlock stages, and beginner priority flags. Recipes are updated as community data is verified.

Materials Planner

Click + Add to Gathering List on any recipe to add it to the Materials Planner. The planner automatically totals all required materials across your selected recipes. Use Copy Materials List to copy the full gathering list as plain text. Your planner is saved in your browser and persists across page refreshes.

Beginner Priority tags

Recipes marked Beginner Priority are the most impactful crafts for early survival — if you're overwhelmed, start with these first.

Data accuracy

Ingredient amounts and availability may change with patches. Items marked Needs Verification are especially subject to change. Always verify with in-game descriptions before a large gathering run.

Some players may search for fan recipe or fan-made recipe notes; this page tracks fan-made recipe notes and verification status, not official extracted data.

Crafting Prep Checklist

Things to verify before a major crafting or gathering run. Fan-made suggestions — verify all costs in-game.

Check ingredient costs in-game first. Early Access patches change recipes. The Materials Planner above uses community data — always compare with the in-game Fabricator.
Mark "Beginner Priority" recipes first. Filter by Beginner Priority to see the most impactful early crafts before spending resources on mid-game items.
Plan your Titanium and Copper before anything else. Nearly every recipe needs these. Run a dedicated gathering pass for bulk materials before crafting sessions.
For base building, cross-reference with the Subnautica 2 Base Building Planner. Review structure notes and recipe materials together.
Check Laser Cutter status if mid-game planning. See Subnautica 2 Laser Cutter Location Notes for current ingredient verification status before gathering Diamond or rare materials.
Use the Subnautica 2 Beginner Checklist for your overall preparation order. The Subnautica 2 Beginner Checklist groups help sequence early crafting prep.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find Subnautica 2 crafting recipes?

Search the recipe and materials table above by item or ingredient, then narrow the results with category and stage filters. The page contains fan-made Early Access notes, not extracted official data.

Are these recipes verified?

Not all of them. Each row carries a status such as WIP or Needs Verification. Check the current in-game Fabricator before relying on an ingredient amount.

What does Needs Verification mean?

It means the fan-made note has not been independently confirmed for the current build or may change during Early Access. Treat it as a planning prompt and verify it in-game.

Can I use this as a materials checklist?

Yes. Add the recipes you plan to make, review the combined material totals, then use Copy Materials List. The saved tracker is a planning checklist, but its WIP values still need an in-game check.

Is this official?

No. GuideCrateHub is fan-made and is not affiliated with Unknown Worlds, Krafton, or the official Subnautica 2 team. The tracker saves locally in your browser under the existing planner storage key.
