The Abyssal Trench is the deep descent toward Proteus’s core and the World Tree. It is the most punishing explorable region in the Early Access build — pitch black, crushing pressure, and home to the game’s heaviest fauna.

Requirements

You do not enter the Trench casually. It demands:

  • A late-game crush-depth rating on your vehicle.
  • Large oxygen reserves and a charted ascent route.
  • Power and supply infrastructure staged on the way down.

Threats

  • Collector Leviathan — the apex hunter; sight-based, relentless pursuit.
  • Great Jaw — trap-wire ambushes along trench walls.

Strategy

The Trench is a logistics problem before it is a combat problem. Build forward outposts, stage power, and never push deeper than your return-trip oxygen and battery allow.
