World Map & All Locations in Lightyear Frontier

The vibrant world of Lightyear Frontier puts you at the wheel of a giant tractor mech in order to build a farm and a new life on a strange, alien planet. To help your farm prosper with plenty of crops and other machines for all your crafting needs, you’ll need to get out and explore the Lightyear Frontier world map and all of the locations you can reach.

All Discoverable Areas on the World Map in Lightyear Frontier

Each area of the map features different landscapes with various useful resources and landmarks related to the main story, so it’s important to know where to go. If you’re wondering just how vast the world is, here is our handy guide to show you the way.

As of the early access launch, there are nine total discoverable locations in Lightyear Frontier. So far, however, given the current extent of the game’s main story, only eight of those locations are reachable.

The large area to the north, on the other side of the Dam in Pine Heights, is unnamed and completely inaccessible, presumably until the next content update. Whenever we manage to find our way over there, we’ll promptly update this list.

Along with the name of each area, we’ve also included all discoverable resources in each one, some of which won’t spawn until you’ve cleared out all Noxious Slimes and Weeds plaguing the landscape. We’re still working on finding every single wild resource in these areas, so check back often for updates.

The Meadows

The Meadows is the default area where you first begin the game, consisting of vast green fields and ponds. It’s also one of the easiest areas to set up a farm on, particularly near the northern coastline where you have plentiful access to water for your crops.

Resources

• Polyberry
• Aluminum Rod
• Coal
• Blue Colorflower

Pine Heights

Pine Heights is directly northwest of the Meadows, and likely the first new area you’ll explore. Full of rocky cliffs and rows of pine trees and a strange, high wall that leads to some ruins. It’s also the best location for farming Aluminum Rods.

Resources

• Rabbage
• Aluminum Rods
• Coal
• Red Crystal
• Red Colorflower

Yellow Forest

The Yellow Forest is directly east of the Meadows, and the quickest shortcut there is a narrow path by the northern coastline that leads up into the brush of trademark yellow trees, giant fossils, and eccentric-looking plants like Zappertwigs.

Resources

• Zappertwig
• Blue Crystal
• Coal
• Iron Ore
• Blue Colorflower
• White Colorflower

Mountainside Coast

The Mountainside Coast is found southeast of the Yellow Forest, and consists of low-lying grasslands alongside a long coastline, with a smoking volcano visible in the distance across the open water. Ruins can be found here as well in the treelines at the base of the snowy peak.

Resources

• Coal
• Iron Ore
• Yellow Colorflower
• Gravelgourd

Stepstone Peak

Stepstone Peak is just a few steps south of the Mountainside Coast, where you find grassy cliffs overlooking vast green plains. This area is especially plentiful in Iron Ore and Chromaize.

Resources

• Chromaize
• Coal
• Iron Ore
• Yellow Colorflower

Lowland Plains

The Lowland Plains is the southernmost area of the map, and one of the biggest as well. It features sweeping, low-lying plains with cliffs along its southern edge and ruins further on the east side. It also has the second-biggest variety of resources, so building a farm down there is not a bad idea.

Resources

• Coal
• Copper Ore
• Pondpitcher
• White Colorflower
• Red Colorflower

Edge Cliffs

The Edge Cliffs is a small, narrow area between the Meadows and the Lowland Plains that consists mostly of cliffs, as its name suggests. While there isn’t as much to explore, this area is richly abundant in Copper Ore and the one place you can find wild Caroots, so it still remains a popular pit-stop.

Resources

• Caroot
• Coal
• Copper Ore
• Red Colorflower

Tornado Rock Isle

This huge island off the mainland is one of the last areas you’ll reach on the game’s current map, as it’s essentially locked behind story progression, as well as a huge body of water. We’ve yet to see any tornados, so we’re otherwise unsure why it’s called that.

Spoiler warning, but you’ll first need to get through The Vault area behind the strange door in the back of the Meadows and unlock a new ability for your Mech. It will allow you to sprint over water for a brief period, which will give you the ability to “hop” across the patches of land on the northern coast of the Meadows to reach Tornado Rock Isle.

This island features the largest variety of resources in the game, so be sure to explore end to end.

Resources

• Aluminum Rods
• Coal
• Iron Ore
• Yellow Colorflower
• Blue Colorflower
• Red Colorflower
• Black Colorflower
• Fractalite Ore
• Lumbloom

Unknown Area (???)

The ninth and last area on the map is currently shrouded in mystery, located behind the huge Dam wall in Pine Heights. It looks to be the biggest area as well, almost the size of the entire mainland. While we’ve tried various methods to reach it, this area seems to be off-limits until a future content update.
