Region reported

White Hell

The deepest cold — a name, not a biome. The end of the map’s mercy.

Threats
  • — Near-instant exposure failure
  • — Zero margin for error
Salvage focus
  • — The game’s best rewards
  • — End-game technology

What White Hell is

White Hell is reported as the extreme end of the cold — less a single point than the place the world stops pretending to be survivable. The name is the warning.

If Cold Zones are "come back later", White Hell is "come back much later, fully equipped, and know your way out".

Unconfirmed. White Hell is tagged reported — reported from official trailers and community coverage, not yet verified in the shipped build. Open questions:
  • — Whether it is reachable in Early Access
  • — Its exact boundaries
  • — Any safe anchor inside
