Infernal Abyss has the All Paths and Enemies Beta modifiers. The All Paths modifier duplicates all enemies for each path with the exception of bosses.

Design & Path

CurrentVersion 4Version 3Version 2Version 1

Placeholder

The current version of Infernal Abyss appears to be a former metropolitan city that has been destroyed and is now an island. A large lava pool surrounds what remains of the city. All the skyscrapers that once stood in the city have now been destroyed, with most on fire. Some of the smaller stone buildings have a more recognizable structure. Various burnt out and destroyed vehicles are scattered around the map. The pipe system that the city once had are now exposed, though the lampposts remain standing. Several dark rocks spike out from points in the map.
The path begins at the two entrances to what appears to be the underworld. As there are two paths, enemies are divided between entrance points. The path follows the road system of the map, intersecting near the middle of the map before the path reaches a cave at the end of the map, in the shadow of a destroyed skyscraper.

The third version of Infernal Abyss was the same compared to the second version, except that the baseplate magma was replaced with orange terrain water.

The second version of Infernal Abyss took place in the middle of a magma pool with two main islands that the paths crossed over, and a bridge that spanned the gap between the islands. There were two other smaller rock islands and some evidence of life, with bones and a cage. Various rocky hills and chains could be seen, including floating pieces of rock by the bridge. Dark rocky triangles encased the map.
There were two portals where the stone paths began at and one exit as the paths intersected early on the first island. The path went over the bridge to cross between the two islands. The left path was slightly shorter than the right path (facing towards the portals). The path ended at a cave on the second island.

The first version of Infernal Abyss took place in the middle of a magma pool. There were two main islands, that were both black, with two smaller pillars seen to the side of the islands. Several grey bones, cages and cliff mounds could be seen on the islands.
The black paths began at two lava portals before intersecting on the first island. The path then crossed over the grey bone bridge that linked the two island before reaching the cave on the second island.

Trivia

• Prior to it being remade, Infernal Abyss was considered one of the hardest maps in the game. This was because Infernal Abyss had two paths and both the paths were relatively short.
  • It was remade on the 8th of December 2019. Each path was made much longer, reducing the difficulty of the map.
    • Having been remade on the 24th of June 2023, it is now once again one of the hardest standard maps in the game, due to being a three-pathed map with the All Paths modifier.
• Like many other maps that existed prior to the MEGA Update, this map was remade to give it a mid-poly look, replacing the old blocky version.
  • This map was further updated in the Frost Invasion Update so that the map was more in line with the artistic style of the game.
• Like every other two-pathed map, all enemies (including major bosses) used to spawn twice prior to the Frost Invasion Update.
  • Nowadays, due to the All Paths modifier, this is the case once again, but instead spawning thrice due to the map having three paths.
• Multiple Humvees and Trucks are scattered around on the current version of the map.
