Subnautica Creatures — All Fauna & Leviathans

One of the most feared creatures in Subnautica. The Reaper Leviathan is a massive, serpentine predator reaching up to 55 meters in length. It can grab the Seamoth or PRAWN Suit with its mandibles and deal devastating damage.

Aggressive

The largest and most dangerous creature in Subnautica, reaching up to 112 meters in length. The Sea Dragon Leviathan inhabits the deepest, most dangerous biomes and can spit burning lava balls at the player.

Aggressive

A translucent, bio-luminescent leviathan class organism found in the depths of the Lost River and the vast, creature-filled Dead Zone. Its ethereal glow makes it hauntingly beautiful — and terrifying.

Aggressive

A massive but passive leviathan that walks along the seabed in herds along the Sea Treader's Path. Their footsteps churn up the sediment, exposing valuable resources like Limestone and Shale Outcrops.

A mysterious, bio-mechanical creature created by the Precursor race to hunt down and "warp" infected lifeforms. Can teleport short distances and deal heavy melee damage.

Aggressive

A medium-sized, crocodilian predator found in the shallower biomes. Stalkers are fascinated by metal salvage and will pick it up and play with it — which causes them to shed Stalker Teeth, a valuable crafting material.

Aggressive

A medium predator that buries itself in the sandy seabed and ambushes passing prey. Its camouflage makes it a surprising danger for unwary players exploring the Grassy Plateaus.

Aggressive

A small fish that lives inside Sulfur Plants. When disturbed, it launches itself at threats and explodes violently. Can deal severe damage at close range.

Aggressive

A large, serpentine predator that makes its home inside Jellyshrooms in the Jellyshroom Caves. It lurks inside the mushroom and lunges out at approaching players.

Aggressive

A hypnotic predator with colorful, pulsating patterns on its frills that paralyze and lure prey. One of the most uniquely dangerous creatures — it can make the player walk voluntarily into its mouth.

Aggressive

The iconic small fish of Subnautica — a round, almost comical creature with a single oversized eye. Edible and friendly, Peepers are often the first creature new players encounter.

A bioluminescent, deep-dwelling fish with large reflective eyes suited for the darkness of the Jellyshroom Caves. Despite its eerie appearance, it is completely passive.

A large, semi-intelligent crustacean with an EMP attack that disables electronics and vehicle lights. One of the most dangerous mid-game predators — its EMP can disable the Seamoth and leave players vulnerable.

Aggressive

A medium-to-large aggressive predator with a heavily armoured body and powerful bite. Common in the Grassy Plateaus, Bone Sharks are a persistent threat to early-game players exploring beyond the Safe Shallows.

Aggressive

An eel-like predator capable of delivering powerful electric shocks that damage both the player and vehicles. One of the few creatures that can reliably damage the Seamoth with ranged attacks.

Aggressive

A small but fast crustacean that clings to surfaces in the Blood Kelp Zone and Lost River. Despite its small size, it is highly aggressive and attacks in numbers.

Aggressive

A small, fast land-capable predator found on islands and near the Aurora. Cave Crawlers can walk on land and surfaces, attacking players who leave the water.

Aggressive

A small, heat-adapted organism that attaches to vehicles and drains their power. In the Lava Zones, Lava Larvae will latch onto the Seamoth or PRAWN Suit and quickly drain their energy cells.

Aggressive

The largest known living creature on Planet 4546B — an ancient, telepathic leviathan held in the Primary Containment Facility. Unlike other leviathans, the Sea Emperor is peaceful and communicates directly with the player, ultimately providing the cure to the Kharaa bacterium.
