Spawn Island (or Starter Island) is the location where every player spawns before entering a Battle Bus that takes players over to the main Island. It acts as a pre-game lobby in order to gather up the amount of players needed to start the match. Once all players are gathered, a 10 second timer starts and the match begins. The Spawn Island is not visible on the Map, but is visible from the main Island. Although referred to as Spawn Island, it is not always presented as one, rather it is just a location where players spawn, named as such, due to it being an Island for the longest time.

Consistent Features[]

As the Spawn Island acts as a waiting area for the match to start, it contains many loot spawns. The loot at Spawn Island is usually Weapons and Ammunition, but Materials also spawn here. Players can build, destroy the environment, gather loot, and attack players except for their teammates. Loot gathered in this location will not transfer to the start of the game and is taken from the loot pool of the current Season/Playlist. Players also do not take damage in this location from any source.

A Battle Bus will always be present on Spawn Island in some form.
