Atacama selection.
Atacama is a random map in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. It is based on the Atacama desert in South America.
Description[]
This barren desert is unlikely to quench anyone's thirst, but with its occupants' unrelenting search, its aridity soon gives way to lush trees the deeper one goes.
Atacama is an open desert-like map with an unusual distribution of resources. In the central circle area, there are medium-sized forests and few other resources. Outside the central circle, there are plentiful resources, except for trees, which only generate in small groups. Similarly to Gold Rush, controlling and denying the opponents access to the valuable resources in the center can create a significant advantage.
