Bugsnax hosts a range of small creatures for you to capture and interact with throughout the game. Each creature is unique, from their punny names and creative graphic design. Here I have put together all Bugsnax locations as found in the in game Bugapedia. This is including their in-game descriptions, likes and dislikes, as well as the time of day and types of weather they will appear in.
Please note that some Bugsnax , locations and equipment aren’t available until you have completed side quests or progressed the story. There is no particular order to complete these in, however if you’re hoping for a positive ending to the game, then all side quests must be completed before beginning the final main quest.
