More actions
Fangwai City 2030 was introduced in Season 9 and was the thirteenth Arena to be added. While Fangwai City is fictional, it is inspired by Chinese megacities and culture. The arena is designed around the juxtaposition of traditional Chinese architecture and hypermodern urban design. Fangwai is made up of three general areas, with an elevated walkway connecting them.

Points of Interest
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Temple | A large traditional Chinese temple with an open courtyard with potted bonsai trees and stone steps leading to the entrance. The main building is spacious, featuring only thin columns as cover inside. Surrounding walls have small rooms with mostly closed first floors, while the second and third floors feature windows and open terrace areas. Bell towers stand at the corners of the walls. Interior spaces contain statues and prayer areas, with incense burners placed throughout both indoors and outdoors. |
| Transfer Station | An urban district with several large buildings nearing a central plaza. Despite the name and amenities, like schedule boards and waiting rooms, suggesting transit infrastructure, no visible transportation systems are present. The complex resembles a train station or metro hub. One building is a large five-story office with server rooms, office spaces, and meeting rooms. |
| Garden | An elevated terrace park named "Far Horizon Park" with a calm artificial lake in the center. Covered walkways with traditional roofs surround the water and lead up to a single small temple. The area around the walkways is populated with greenery. Several ramps and stairs lead up to the garden from the roads and pathways around it. |
| Residential Area | Five to six-story old apartment buildings with shops on the ground floor. Buildings connect via ziplines for fast horizontal and vertical travel. Interior layouts vary between open rooms and narrow corridors with stairs. Many buildings feature rooms with wall-wide windows, offering clear sightlines to and from the street. Multiple advertisement signs hang from the sides of buildings and can serve as walkable pathways between them. |
| Construction | An unfinished high-rise building site with exposed support columns of different heights. The structure consists of a basement level and one unfinished floor. |
| Walkway | An elevated path running across most of the map. It goes through the Transfer Station buildings, crosses the central square, passes through one of the Residential Area streets, and connects near one of the Garden entrances. This is a dangerous traversal option but offers clear sightlines on targets below. |
| Megabuilding | A massive skyscraper in the middle of the arena. It is inaccessible and indestructible, forcing players to navigate around it when crossing the map. |
