Lurking Giants All Maps
All maps in Lurking Giants: Forest and City overview with survivor and giant strategy summaries.
Lurking Giants currently rotates between two distinct arenas — Forest and City — each reshaping survivor and giant win rates. This overview compares both maps and links to deep-dive guides for routing, hiding, and tier context.
Forest Map
Wilderness layout with geysers, hot springs, campsites, caves, and outer woodland paths. Giants perform strongly here due to open terrain during visibility pulses. Survivors use cave-to-tree rotation. Full guide: Forest map. Tier: giant-favored on maps tier list.
City Map
Urban environment with towers, billboards, tunnels, and central buildings. Vertical cover helps survivors; stair geometry frustrates giants. Full guide: City map. Tier: survivor-favored.

Future Maps
Community requests include backrooms-style layouts. Suggest via official Discord on official links. Roadmap: updates.
