The Oasis is a unique region in the sense that it is an extremely lush place that has a ton of resources. If you find yourself thinking that the High Desert is too easy of a place, than I suggest the next place to move onto is the Low Desert! One thing about the Low Desert that is different from the High Desert is that this area has a ton of Plant Species Y Seeds, while they are a lot harder to find in the High Desert region. In this region you can find the following creatures commonly: Ankylosaurus, Direwolf, Doedicurus, Jerboa, Jug Bug, Morellatops, Parasaur, Procoptodon, and Raptors. The Low Desert does have a bit less resources than the High Desert, so this can be a bit more difficult of a place for new players to settle at. The Low Desert is very similar to the High Desert, the only difference is where it is located. I recommend this area if you are a new survivor who wants to get started in a safer area with a ton of naturally occurring resources. Here you can find the following creatures: Morellatops, Jug Bug, Lymantria, Lystrosaurus, Mantis, Parasaur, Doedicurus, and Terror Bird. This is probably the main spot that new tribes go to when making their first base as there isn’t a lot of threats and it is easy to get started due to all of the natural resources. Although it is hot, you will not get Heat Stroke by just standing around in the area. There is a ton of natural resources such as water and metal. It is the central area of the map, that does not have many predators. The High Desert is a very fertile land that has a lot of vegetation. If you are trying to conquer the best of what the Desert has, than this is the region for you to be in. I recommend avoiding this area if you are a lone adventurer or a new tribe. In this area, you can find Jug Bugs, Arthropleura, Pulmonoscorpius, Vulture, Titanoboa, and Death Worms.

Interestingly, if you place a Wind Turbine in the Dunes region, it will be powered always, regardless if it is day or night. You can actually find Deep Sea Loot Crates in random areas in the desert that contain anything from riot gear, to shotguns, to saddles. The Dunes is home to all of the Death Worms and special loot crates. There are a few water sources that you can find, but they are random and disappear after a certain area of time. This is the most dangerous area on the map because it is so hot and lacks water. The Dunes is the region that surrounds the entire region of the map. This is typically not a place that beginners will go to, but it is one of the better spots on the map for more advanced tribes to settle down. Here, you will commonly find Ankylosaurus, Coelacanth, Doedicurus, Jerboa, Jug Bug, Morellatops, Procoptodon, Terror Bird, Kaprosuchus, and Moschops.

This is another well sought after location on public servers because it is easily defensible, but is home to some of the more dangerous creatures. It has a lot of big Canyon walls surrounding it, which makes it a cooler environment. The Canyons area is known for having one of the only natural water sources that cannot be used up. As said before, you will most likely find a lot of metal in this area, but you can also find raw salt, cactus, sap, wood, thatch, fiber, flint, stone, and oil. You may also find Direwolves, Carnos, Rex, and Titanomyrma. In this region, you will commonly see Jeraboa, Morellatops, Pegomastax, and Terror Birds. You can only find an Oil Vein in the Bad Lands area, which makes it a well contested area on high populated areas. The Bad Lands region on the map is noted for having low amounts of vegetation, no natural water supplies, but an extreme amount of metal resources. We’ll go through each region and see what is unique to each. The Map is essentially broken down into 8 different regions. You can find natural water resources such as cacti, Jug Bugs, and natural water wells. With this desert map, you can actually get too hot and suffer from heat stroke. There are very few natural water resources, so it is important to preserve the water that you do find. The further you go from the central area in the desert, the more difficult the creatures become. Instead of being surrounded by water, there is nothing but sand and heat. The Scorched Earth Map takes a little bit of a twist on the Island. You can also spawn in any item with an admin command, regardless if you have bought the map or not. Anything that is tamed and any items that you create, can be brought over to the regular Island Map and used by people that have not bought the expansion. In a nutshell, the Scorched Earth map adds 11 new creatures, 50 new items, a new boss, and an entire new map for people to explore and conquer.

It would be released a couple months later for the PlayStation 4. The Scorched Earth Map was released on September 1st, 2016 and was released for $20.
