"The lunar Big Rock Mining Facility specializes in processing of heavy metal ores, and the slightly-lower-than-Earth gravity is ideal for the handling of large orders and high volume, but does physically wear on the human body over time; to compensate, zones of normal Earth gravity have been established in the facility's interior spaces."
"The paths of this team-based arena follow a natural stream and the hollows are carved directly from the rocks of the surrounding mountainside. While the space is still under heavy construction, the Liandri board has opened the grounds for sanctioned practice matches, giving combatants and designers a completely blank slate to work from."
"This classic CTF map is one of the most memorable arenas in Unreal Tournament history. Two symmetrical towers and an open midfield provide for an extremely well balanced match, unless one team has a sniper waiting to strike at unarmored victims. Keep a wary eye, there are lines of site to and from almost every area of this map."
"During the Skaarj wars, the Liandri Corporation built extensive bunker systems through the hollows of the Pistola Mountain Range in an attempt to secure key assets and provide safe avenues for the transport of wartime infrastructure. The facilities were decommissioned after the Seven Day Siege, and lay empty for decades until they were refurbished as a rusty and decayed Tournament arena. The Pistola bunkers provided to be so popular, however, that the Liandri corp has decided to invest in a complete overhaul to support this year's Tournament."
"For thousands of years, these stone titans stood vigilant over an impenetrable fortress of iron and stone, a focal point of the heavily defended border between the Verans and the Pangol. Liandri representatives provided both sides with advanced weaponry in return for valuable mining concessions. The few remaining Pangol now eke out a subsistence living as miners, and there are no more Verans."
"The Axon corp designed this makeshift arena to simulate Tournament combat in urban conditions. While it is still under construction, Axon has opened one small section in order to beta test the facility, and it has already proven quite popular with dueling combatants."
"The ancient winds that permeate this bloodthirsty conclave are said to echo the calls of the old protectors, summoning exiled warriors from afar to prove their worth in trials of combat."
"What used to be a Liandri bio research facility, has been converted into an arena designed for practice with the legendary Bio Rifle, throughout the arena, at each elevation a key pickup or weapon can be found, but not without considerable danger! It's slime time."
"Unreal's most iconic death match arena, popular for its versatility between a wide range of gametypes, play styles, and skill levels. Control is the key here, and maintaining the upper hand in Deck is as much a mental game as it is one of skill."
"Located in the constellation Lyra, about 1,200 light years from where Earth lies the deep sea observatory known as Lea. Doubling as an Arena for the Grand Tournament, the layout for this duel map was originally created by community designer Cedric "HTK" Mourouvin"
"The Outland Territories are notoriously hostile due to their rugged landscape and sheer distance from colonized space. They're also renowned for being extremely rich in rare mineral deposits, so the Liandri Mining Corporation established a series of remote Outposts to collect and refine resources, despite the initial cost in human capital."
"This monastery come fortress was once home to an ancient order of monks dedicated to contemplating the afterlife. Liandri acquired the site via their 'Heritage Program' under the express understanding they continued the order's work; unfortunately for the monks, nobody specified how."
"A series of relay facilities were set up to monitor the inevitable decay of uninhabited system PA-375 as its sun went supernova. After all the data had been collected and processed, investors offered the defunct observation posts to Tournament organizers in the hopes of recovering their considerable investments."
"While on a mission to recover equipment from the crash of the Vortex Rikers, scanning teams discovered a large empty space being fed by the nearby river. Investigation revealed the remains an ancient underground temple, looted, defaced, and flooded. Nothing of value remained, but the stable architecture seemed fit for another, crowd-pleasing purpose."
"This hidden outpost guards an entrance to the massive Underland caverns. Lost for a thousand years, it has become an arena where warriors will forever try to prove their worth or slip into eternal darkness."
"Constructed after Tarydium was discovered within its core, this remote satellite mining facility is one of the newer Tournament Arenas offered by LMC. Due to the presence of three X29 fusion devices, the celestial body the facility was established on has now been displaced into a decaying orbit. This has lead its former crew to designate this facility... Unsaved."
