Alien Warp Gates are in development pieces of Precursor Technology. They resemble large gateways and have a green, semi-transparent portal within. The Prawn Suit is able to use Alien Warp Gates although the Seamoth is not. 

When the player enters an Alien Warp Gate, it plays an SFX similar to when a Warper warps the player.

Warp Gate Types

Master

The Master Warp Gates have pedestals, must be powered using an Ion Crystal or an Alien Artifact. They are connected to a slave Warp Gate.

Slave

The Slave Warp Gates do not have pedestals, and their corresponding master Warp Gate must be activated before these gates can be used.
