This article is about the Arctic. You may be looking for the Sparse Arctic or the Arctic Spires.

The Arctic regions are large biomes characterized by rugged, rocky terrain on the seafloor and icebergs on the surface.

There are two regions, located to the east and west.

Various points of interest can be found on the icebergs here, with Marguerit's Greenhouse having been built on one, and another having a crashed Satellite built by The Architects. While the two Arctic regions share a similar seafloor, a dormant caldera can be found here, scarring the nearby landscape with small trenches. In the center of the caldera is a Ground Sampler. <tabber> Resources=
