The official source record names three launch biomes. This guide gives you the verified map vocabulary first, then marks the POIs, routes, spawns and hazard behavior that still require field evidence.
These are useful orientation labels. Treat the descriptions as setting context rather than a substitute for a verified tactical map.
An officially described launch environment. The current record does not establish its POI names, extraction locations, enemy roster, or loot distribution.
A second officially described launch environment. No verified guide here converts the name into climate rules, spawn patterns, or a difficulty ranking.
A third officially described launch environment. Specific buildings, routes, objectives, and extraction points need direct map evidence before publication.
A screenshot can show an environment. It cannot, by itself, prove a spawn, loot, enemy, route, or difficulty rule.
When you build a route from your own play or a version-identifiable recording, label that evidence separately. Keep the official biome name, player observation, and community report in different buckets.
This page intentionally does not publish a tactical map, best route, fixed extraction point, or anomaly distribution.
The answers below stay at the level supported by the current official record.
Three: a Soviet restricted island, a Central Africa quarantine zone, and an abandoned U.S. coastal city.
No specific POI list, route, spawn table, or loot map is confirmed in the current evidence record.
No. A biome name or promotional image does not prove enemy behavior, anomaly counters, loot distribution, or difficulty.
