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.
