Voidling Bound Breeding can look overwhelming at first, especially if you’re relatively new to the game. But once you understand the rules, it’s actually pretty straightforward. This guide breaks down everything from how breeding works to how to upgrade it and how to get the most out of every pairing.
What You’ll Read:
What Is Breeding in Voidling Bound?
Voidlings’ max level is 20, which means you can only put 20 total points into attributes. That’s fine early on, but it becomes a hard ceiling pretty quickly. Breeding is how you break past it. By pairing two Voidlings of the same species, you can push their offspring’s base stats higher.
A good breeding will eventually create a Voidling with 20 across all attributes. It’s also the only way to get Dual Natures, which are some of the strongest long-term upgrades in the game. So you’re not just collecting here. Breeding is how you build the best version of any Voidling.
How to Unlock Voidling Bound Breeding
You can breed using the Pheromone Nest on your ship. Once it’s unlocked, you can start pairing Voidlings of the same species to produce offspring.
This is also where duplicate Voidlings start to matter. A duplicate you were about to release might have better stats or a rare Nature than your current main, and that makes it a valuable breeding candidate. Don’t release duplicates on impulse. Always check their stats and Nature first.
How Voidling Bound Breeding Works
The Pheromone Nest Breeding only works with two Voidlings of the same species. No cross-species breeding. Keep that in mind when deciding which duplicates to hold onto.
The goal is simple: the offspring inherits the best stats from both parents. If one parent has a high Attack and the other has a high Defense, you want the offspring to take both. That’s the whole game with breeding.
Here’s the catch. By default, the offspring only inherits a stat value that falls somewhere between the two parents, and even that number gets cut by 50%. So even if both parents have strong stats, the offspring come out weaker than expected.
The fix is Henry’s Hatchery upgrades. With the right upgrades, you can get offspring to inherit 100% of what the parents pass down. Until you have those upgrades, don’t expect perfect results. Prioritize unlocking them before you start serious breeding runs.
How to Upgrade Your Breeding Capabilities
You can get upgrades by increasing your Wrangler rank, shown in the top left corner of the screen. To increase it, you need to discover and document new genes throughout your missions. The more genes you find, the higher your rank goes, and the more upgrade options open up.
Once your Wrangler rank is high enough, talk to Henry to purchase Hatchery upgrades. These are the most important investments in the breeding system. Here’s what to upgrade and why:
| Upgrade | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Supplemental Vitamins | Improves base inheritance from parents |
| Quality Nest Materials | Further boosts inheritance quality |
| Enhanced Baby Formula | Highest chance of inheriting the best attributes from parents |
| Void Resonance Treatment | Helps pass along the best attribute score (raw 20) |
| Advanced Parental Care | Improves stat transfer to offspring |
| Sunlight Therapy | Works alongside the above to max out stat inheritance |
You want all of these maxed out before you start trying to breed a perfect stat line. None of it is 100% guaranteed, but with everything unlocked, it gets very close.
How Natures Work in Breeding
Natures can be passed down through breeding, so it’s worth planning your offspring’s Nature at the same time you’re planning its stats. Don’t treat them as separate decisions.
How Natures Inheritance Works
If you breed two Voidlings with different Natures, the offspring adopts the Nature with the lower level, not the higher one. So if you’re trying to keep a specific Nature, you need to breed two Voidlings that both have that same Nature. There’s no shortcut around it.
How to Get Dual Natures
Dual Natures are only available through breeding. You can’t find them in the wild or get them any other way. If a Voidling has a Nature you want to combine and preserve long-term, that alone makes it worth keeping, even if its stats aren’t impressive.
How to Hatch Eggs
No matter if it’s a Golden egg or a normal one, the good news is you don’t have to wait much. Once the Pheromone Nest produces an egg, just complete one mission, and it’ll hatch by the time you’re back. But don’t sit idle on the ship. Run a normal mission, and the egg handles itself in the background.
What You Can’t Do in Breeding (Limitations)
One important rule to know: you cannot breed a spliced Voidling. Once you splice a Voidling, consider it the last of its bloodline.
Your goal here is to breed your Voidlings up to peak stats first, then splice. If you splice too early, you lose that candidate as a breeding parent forever. So get the stat line where you want it before you splice.

FAQ
Can you breed any two Voidlings together?
No. Breeding only works between two Voidlings of the same species.
Why are my offspring’s stats lower than the parents?
By default, inherited stats get reduced by 50%. You need Henry’s Hatchery upgrades to fix this and get offspring that inherit the full parent stat values.
Can I breed a spliced Voidling?
No. Once a Voidling is spliced, it can no longer be used for breeding. Always finish breeding before you splice.
