LEVIATHAN SUBNAUTICA FULL
This indicates that they had a common ancestor with a body plan much like that of a centipede crossed with a worm.ĭespite being enormous when compared to the fauna of Earth, the leviathans inhabiting Planet 4546B in the present day are dwarfed by their predecessors the three-million-year-old Gargantuan Fossil at full length is estimated to be 6-8 times longer than an adult Sea Emperor Leviathan specimen. Both of which have elongated serpentine bodies lined with several parapodia, have large distinct blade-shaped heads, blackened skin, and feed with monstrous mandibles. These two most likely shared a common ancestor that has since diverged into a "smaller", cave-dwelling predatory species and a larger, planktivorous species residing in the open ocean.Īnother pair of Leviathans that seem to be related are the Shadow Leviathan and the Ice Worm. In fact, the only two that appear to have any close current relation are the Sea Emperor Leviathan and Sea Dragon Leviathan who share several features including an almost identical body shape, seven identically positioned tentacles dotted with glowing spots, two forelimbs and a pair of light-producing organs atop their snouts. Leviathan is not part of a taxonomic classification so does not imply any of the species classified as such are related, at least despite their evolutionary status. Any fauna species large enough to lack natural predators can be classified as Leviathan they need not be predatory.Īlthough the term "Leviathan" is used to refer to a large mythical aquatic creature in the real world, there is no confirmation on whether the Leviathan classification is restricted to fauna in the Subnautica universe, or is simply the term used for any species of a sufficient size. Leviathan is a classification given to extremely large creatures of the Subnautica universe. Players new to the game would want to avoid or be cautious toward this article.
