Extinction

The Forbidden Zone is a region in the Extinction DLC.

Overview

The Forbidden Zone is a very dangerous area that leads up to the King Titan Arena. It is frequented by Corrupted Creatures including Corrupted Wyverns and Corrupted Giganotosaurus. Any attempts at making a base here would most likely fail.

Meteor showers are common around Corrupted Earth. The Forbidden Zone, and other sections of the map outside of the Sanctuary, the Sunken Forest or the Ice and Desert Domes, are unsafe from meteor showers, which not only instantly kills anything where it lands, it can also destroy anything near it.

Resources

Silicate, a substitute for Silica Pearls, can be harvested from off-white irregularly shaped rocks. These rocks also provide Obsidian, Flint and Stone.

Notes

Even though dangerous Corrupted Creatures like the Corrupted Giganotosaurus and Corrupted Wyvern are found in mass amounts here, the most dangerous Creature in the area is the Corrupted Chalicotherium. While it doesn't do much damage compared to the other Corrupted Creatures found here, it retains the ability to throw mud at the survivor and slow them down as well as obscuring their view; allowing the more dangerous Creatures to swarm the survivor while they are vulnerable.
There is a tunnel Vile Straight (Extinction) that does not spawn any dinos in it. Use this to your advantage.
There is a part of Forbidden Zone out side the northern latitude extreme (Latitude < 0). It is safe and necessary to cross if the player wants to reach King Titan Terminal on foot.
