Abstract Lithium metal‐based batteries (LMBs) have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional energy density and lightweight characteristics. However, the electrochemical performance of LMBs often falls short, particularly in extreme temperature conditions. To address these challenges, development electrolytes capable withstanding wide ranges has emerged as a highly promising strategy for enhancing operational capabilities LMB across diverse weather This comprehensive review aims explore degradation mechanisms wide‐temperature electrolytes, establishing fundamental understanding failure that impede at harsh temperatures. Essential properties required are elucidated, latest advancements electrolyte technologies tailored specifically all‐climate operations comprehensively discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on unique role solvation structure interfacial offers valuable insights proposes directions practical implementation LMBs, contributing significantly existing knowledge base while concurrently paving way developing robust rigors environments.
