Research Tree

The 'Lockdown Patch' introduced an optional research tree to Stationeers, accessed using the Research Machine, using Research Capsules produced at the Electronics Printer as consumables. This page lists the initial research tree structure, items, unlocks and costs.

Please note this page may need to be updated regularly as the research process is refined and updated.
