While Abiotic Factor is no life sim, there are similarities with your bizarre soup creations. With a thirst and hunger meter, Abiotic Factor combines Fallout survivalist gameplay with SCP: Containment Breach monsters.

There is nothing quite like a good bowl of soup to keep you rejuvenated. While we aren’t facing monsters in real life (except for those working in retail), soup can heal sicknesses and revitalize us. It is an essential food source in Abiotic Factor. But the ingredients you use massively impact the type of soup you create. Developing your cooking skills from frying meat to stewing ingredients in a pot is crucial if you want to survive beyond your first day on the job.

So, let’s dive into every soup you can make in Abiotic Factor.

Soups not only keep your character alive throughout Abiotic Factor as a more fulfilling alternative to frying meat, but they also grant temporary effects. Effects vary depending on the soup you have made. These often include XP for a specific Skill you may want to boost, depending on your chosen character’s traits. Alternatively, you may want to increase your accuracy, inventory weight, or stealth.

Here are all recipes, how to make them, and the effects they give in Abiotic Factor.

There are soups that can either make you sick or kill you. So, if you want to sleep without any stomach pains, it’s best to avoid making:

  • Poop Soup: Made with Feces.
  • Toxic Soup: Made with Plastic Scrap, Rotten Food, or Human Body Parts.
  • Killer Soup: Made with Flass or Tech Scrap.

Finally, most will likely create Bad or Weird Soup as a result to mixing incorrect ingredients together. These won’t harm you, but they won’t have any effect aside from filling your character’s stomach.

How to make Soup in Abiotic Factor

Level three Cooking Skill on Abiotic Factor

You need a pot and Cooking Skill three (Soupsmith) to make soup in Abiotic Factor. Cook using the frying pan, frying raw meat you’ve gathered. Pots can be found atop stoves in kitchens. Their spawns aren’t always guaranteed, but pots often spawn in at Flathill, where you’ll naturally go to retrieve the power cells for Silo 3. Just like the frying pan, pots can be picked up, placed into inventory, and moved to another area.

You can leave the pot atop a stove while you explore, returning to it at a later date to cook. Be mindful that the pot can despawn if you have any contents from a previous recipe left inside it. Therefore, make sure to complete empty the pot before you leave the area.

Soup recipes are gathered by either finding an ingredient of the recipe, learning it from an NPC/ other player, picking up new items, or consuming the recipe item. You can sometimes find ready-made soup in a pot that you can interact with to learn the recipe. Finally, you can skip the search for a pot completely by crafting it instead. Simply find two Stapler and three Metal Scrap, use the Crafting Bench, and start boiling.
