According to Valorant Update, it is geographically located in Canyon, New Mexico, and is a testing ground of Radianite for the infamous Kingdom Industries from Earth 1 and Earth 2. The map basically has two very opposite sides to it, and the middle contains the evidently destroyed collider.

Radianite, the substance produced by the Kingdom Company for generating power has a play in the disaster and Kingdom seems to be involved in causing the collision between two forms of Radianite between earth 1 and 2. There are 2 contrasting sites on the map, the Alpha Sector belonging to Earth 1, and the Omega Sector belonging to Earth 2.

These two sites have contrasting vegetation, orange and green crates of radianite, which brings us back to Valorant in beta having Orange crates and the present one having green.

The cause of the rift or ‘Fracture’ in the map is possibly the collision of two bullets from the unknown guns of Deadeye, as shown in the official teaser. While the actual origin is still not disclosed, the gun cases of both Deadeyes from two earths have been found on either side of the collider. The 5v5 battle might be originating from Earth 2 wanting to steal radianite from Earth 1 since the radianite in the former is toxic and does not support vegetation or life.
