Ghost Leviathan

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.

Template:Class 2 FaunaThe Ghost Leviathan is an in-development life form belonging to the fauna category. It is currently the second largest aggressive creature of Subnautica, and the third largest overall. Two Ghost Leviathans currently spawn in-game; one in the Ghost Forest and the other in the Bones Field, both of which are areas within the massive Lost River.

The Giant Cove Tree is the nesting ground of these leviathans, although they are not present around the tree. With its massive glowing bulbs being their eggs. The Ghost Leviathans' life cycle begins in the Lost River, as juveniles. As the leviathans mature and become too large for their home, they will migrate to the Grand Reef and the Void, continuing to grow and roam freely in the open water.

Appearance

The Ghost Leviathan has a transparent outer covering, over a blue inner body which features many dark blue stripes, four yellow, bioluminescent eyes as well as six small fins on the torso section. A small, decorative sail sits on top of the head, and two long structures protruding from either side of its head which bear similarities to the blades of a hammerhead shark. It has a rectangular mouth with a glowing barbule beneath and a long body that tapers to a point. The outer body is transparent, allowing the smaller, inner body to be viewed. The inner body is long and thin, with multiple small protrusions tipped with bioluminescent orange spots. Unlike the outer body, the inner body has a distinct neck that is very thin and joins the head and body. It is also slightly longer than the Reaper Leviathan if it is in the Lost River, and roughly twice the size when in the Void.

Future Plans

• The Ghost Leviathan will spawn in the void, as a means to prevent players from going off the map, and may spawn in the Grand Reef.
  • The versions that spawn in these biomes will be almost twice the size of those found in the Lost River.
