How to unlock Modification Station in Subnautica 2

The Modification Station allows us to improve our tools in Subnautica 2 vastly, allowing us to explore the late-game content in the current early access build. We can use the station to improve our Tadpole submarine and upgrade tools like the Sonic Resonator.

The first task is to unlock the blueprint.

Modification Station blueprint location in Subnautica 2

To unlock the Modification Station, you’ll have to scan just one blueprint. You can find the blueprints at multiple locations, but I have stuck to the easiest one in this guide. To reach this location, you won’t need any advanced tools. However, I recommend using the Wakemaker to cover the distance quickly.

Head out about 1300m from the lifepod to the east, and you’ll find the Alien Ruins. You’ll find the Research Outpost at a depth of about 140m (to the left of the large alien tower). If you’ve dived too deep, use the space bar to ascend.

Head in through the entrance, and you’ll find the Engine Efficiency upgrade on your right. Next, go in through the main tunnel and turn right. You’ll find the Modification Station; complete the scan, and the blueprint will be available.

How to use Modification Station in Subnautica 2

Once you’re back home, you can now place the Modification Station using your Habitat Builder (assuming you have the resources). Open the station, and you’ll find a list of all the available modifications, all of which have different resource costs.

The modification will be applied automatically once you craft it using the Modification Station.

The Bioscanner is a pretty important tool in Subnautica 2, and we will need to unlock it to reach the end of the campaign in the early access. Moreover, we can also use it to scan alien lifeforms, which gives us more perks like extra Biomods.

Like most things inside the game, we will have to find the blueprint for this item before we get to use it.

Bioscanner blueprint location in Subnautica 2

To unlock the Bioscanner, we need to scan just one blueprint. However, we will have to travel all the way to the fourth Angel Comb in the Alien Ruins. From there, keep moving upwards until you come across a crashed Alterra starship wreck.

You can refer to the image above to find the entrance. You’ll need the Repair Tool to proceed since one of the key doorways will be inaccessible at first. Repair the door, and head to the next room. Take the door on your left in this room, and go to the next one.

You’ll find an Iso in this room resting on a dining table and an upgrade for your Tadpole submarine. Look carefully at the corner, and you’ll find a hole that goes through a chamber. Follow the chamber until you reach the end, and you’ll come across the Bioscanner. Use your Scanner to unlock the blueprint.

How to craft the Bioscanner in Subnautica 2

The Bioscanner is an upgrade over your Scanner, and you’ll need the Modification Station. You’ll also need the required resources to craft the Bioscanner. This item scans quicker, and it also allows you to check out certain lifeforms that aren’t detected by the ordinary scanner.

Moreover, you’ll also need the Bioscanner to scan the broken turbine before you can activate it to reach the end of the game (as of writing).
