Blueprints (Subnautica)

This seems new This article contains information that is updated for the latest Experimental Version of Subnautica. Players using stable mode may find this information inaccurate.

Blueprints are special schematics that are required to make certain advanced items in the game. They are discovered by finding the Data Boxes in the Degasi Seabases, Destroyed Lifepods and Wrecks and retrieving the data chip from them. Some items, however, like the Floodlight, require using the Scanner to scan fragments left behind in Wrecks of the Aurora.

Pre-Installed Blueprints

Certain Blueprints do not require Fragments, and are pre-installed in the PDA.
