Underpass Hiding Spots

On Top of Pillars

The most popular hiding spot in Underpass is the metal platform on top of the Pillars area. You can get up here by climbing up the ladder of the bottom pillar at 5F in the map.

2nd Floor Shack in the Village

In the Village area at the western side of the map, there will be a dilapidated shack on the second floor you can get up to by climbing up. Here, you will have a clear view of the central area of the map and be able to snipe players from the shadows.

In Between Containers

In the containers area at the eastern side of the map, you can squeeze in between two containers and hide in the darkness, waiting for enemies to pass by.

Behind Containers

Also in the Containers area at the northeastern side of the map, you can get behind a container, mount your gun, and fire from behind cover.

In the Ditch

In the Ditch area at the southwestern side of the map, you can get into a leafy nook, where you can crouch down and have a straight line of sight down the entire ditch.

On Catwalk in Factory

The Factory is the eastern building on the map. Here, you can get up into a catwalk and fire at enemies passing down from below. Make sure to watch either side of the catwalk, as there are two entrances into this room.

In a Shack in Shanty Town

In Shanty Town, at the southern area, there will be a shack you can climb up to that gives you cover in darkness. Here, you have a good view of anyone coming out of the Factory or getting out of the Ditch at the southern side.

Underpass Tips and Strategies

Underpass Map Strategy
Map Explanation
Fastest paths to objectives. Caution! Encounter and camping hotspots. Control these spots with your team.

Guard Green Points

Green points on the map above are spots that are best guarded and held, since they have excellent lines of sight from windows that also provide good cover.

Skirt Around Edges of Map

The edges of the map will be the safest route to traverse to avoid campers, but most people will also take these routes, so prepare for constant firefights in these areas, ideally equipped with rifles with longer range.

Get to High Ground When You Can

Quickly clambering up to high ground, running across rooftops and shooting from 2nd floor windows will give you an immediate tactical advantage over everyone else.
