Landing safely at the start of a Call of Duty: Warzone match is key for players to begin their quest to become the last one standing. The iconic Rebirth Island map returned to Call of Duty's battle royale in early 2024 and has become a hit among casual and Ranked Play fans dropping into the action.
CoD MW3 & Warzone: 10 Best Weapons For Season 6
Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone feature a large arsenal of weapons for players to use. Here are the best weapons for Season 6.
With a variety of places to land, finding the best one can be tricky in order to gain the upper hand in the early stages of a match. Here, find the best Rebirth Island landing spots to visit.
Stronghold Is Great For Quick Loot
Rebirth Island's Stronghold is located away from the chaos that often occurs in the central area of the map. Landing away from the early action enables players to earn plenty of cash and some powerful ground loot to secure some early eliminations with ease.
Once the loot is secure, it's important to rotate early so the closing circle of gas doesn't catch anyone out during the latter stages of the match. With few escape routes to higher ground, Stronghold is a strong starting place for those wanting to gear up and move inward as fast as possible.
Chemical Engineering Rewards Smart Rotations
Located towards the most northern point of Rebirth Island is Chemical Engineering, a building packed full of loot and plenty of opportunities to outplay the opposition that lands there using movement. The rooftop close to the pair of chimneys is ideal for picking off targets that have landed on the roof of Bioweapons, and with plenty of loot caches to open, it's very easy to build enough cash for a loadout drop.
In terms of quick rotations, there are plenty of options when starting a match at Chemical Engineering. Choose to head further north to Bioweapons or head south toward the Factory to build up the kill count.
Prison Is Perfect For Ambushing Opponents
Found in the center of Rebirth Island is Prison and continues to be one of the very best places to land in casual and competitive play. Rooftops provides excellent places to land, while the inside offers plenty of dark corners that are ideal for The Crow Operator skin to blend in and catch unsuspecting opponents off-guard.
There are plenty of loot caches available, which makes Prison a quick money-maker. There are also several Buy Stations located around the outer edge of the main building, giving players the perfect opportunity to buy Killstreaks, loadouts, and more before ascending toward the roof using the ziplines.

Control Center Offers Excellent Long-Range Sightlines
Last and by no means least is the Control Center, which allows players to score plenty of eliminations as soon as their feet touch the ground. With sightlines to the Prison roof and the Strongholds, it's easy to excel in long-distance duels.
There are several cases of the final circle ending with the building in play — or its outside area — which often results in some chaotic battles to determine the eventual winner.
Call of Duty: Warzone's Rebirth Island continues to deliver fast-paced and frenetic gameplay that keeps players coming back for more. With no signs of its popularity easing off, making the most of these landing spots is bound to assist fans in their quest for victory.
