Description
The Cyclops is the largest craftable vehicle in Subnautica 2, a three-deck submarine that functions as a mobile base. It docks a Seamoth or PRAWN Suit in its lower vehicle bay, houses fabricators and growbeds, and supports a suite of defensive and utility upgrades including a shield generator and silent running mode. With its onboard power cell charging and AI voice, the Cyclops is the centerpiece of any serious deep-water expedition.
How to Craft
Craft the Cyclops at a Vehicle Bay after scanning all three fragment types: hull, engine, and bridge. These fragments are spread across multiple wreck sites, so plan a multi-dive scanning route before attempting assembly.

Crafting Station
Vehicle Bay — deployed from a Habitat Builder on the seafloor near your base.
Late-game unlockWhat it Does
The Cyclops is a mobile base, vehicle carrier, and stealth platform in one. It lets you establish a forward operating base anywhere on the map without building a permanent habitat.
Mobile Base
Houses fabricators, lockers, growbeds, and a power cell charger, letting you operate far from your main base indefinitely.
Vehicle Storage
Docks and charges a Seamoth or PRAWN Suit in its lower bay, combining all three vehicles into a single expedition.
Stealth Mode
Silent running reduces engine noise to avoid attracting predators and leviathans while traversing hostile territory.
Upgrades
The Cyclops supports two primary upgrade paths: defensive systems for survivability and depth/efficiency modules for extended deep-water operations. Install modules at the Cyclops upgrade console.

How do I unlock the Cyclops?
Scan Cyclops hull, engine, and bridge fragments across multiple wreck sites to unlock the blueprint. Each fragment type is found in different biomes, so you'll need to explore wrecks in the Grassy Plateaus, Mushroom Forest, and deeper zones to collect all three.
Can the Cyclops store other vehicles?
Yes, the Cyclops has a dedicated vehicle bay that docks and charges a Seamoth or PRAWN Suit. Approach the lower bay doors while piloting either vehicle to auto-dock, and the Cyclops will recharge its power cells while you explore on foot inside.
What is stealth mode on the Cyclops?
Stealth mode (silent running) reduces engine noise to avoid attracting predators and leviathans. It slows the sub and drains power faster, but is essential for traversing leviathan-infested biomes like the Crash Zone and Dunes without drawing aggro.
