The largest map in the game, where vast open spaces combine with several large locations. A snowstorm, limited visibility, and long distances make movement tense.
Winter Northridge is the winter version of the classic Northridge, completely covered in snow. Despite the familiar layout, the map feels completely different: reduced visibility, snowfalls, and a changed atmosphere force players to choose routes more carefully and use cover more often.
The main feature of the map is the vast distances between key points of interest. Most of the raid is spent moving across open terrain, crossing frozen areas, forests, and hills, constantly risking sniper fire. At the same time, the most profitable locations remain true PvP hotspots.
The map is perfect for long-range combat and slow-paced gameplay. It is important to plan your route in advance, control the high ground, and pay close attention to the surrounding area, as you can often spot an enemy before you hear them.

Spawn Points
The interactive map marks all possible player spawn points on the Winter Northridge map. Due to the large size of the map, early skirmishes occur significantly less often than on the Farm or Arsenal, but as players move towards key locations, the likelihood of encounters quickly increases.
The map shows all available evacuation points of Winter Northridge, including permanent and conditional exits. Some evacuations require additional conditions to be met or become active only after a certain time has passed since the start of the raid.
