The galaxy cluster XLSSC 122 is a rare system at z = 1.98, hosting surprisingly evolved member galaxies when the Universe was only one-third of its present age. Leveraging deep JWST/NIRCam imaging, we perform a weak-lensing analysis and reconstruct the cluster's mass distribution, finding a mass peak that coincides with both the X-ray peak and the position of the brightest cluster galaxy. Consistent with recent strong-lensing analyses, we obtain a mass estimate of 1.60 ± 0.30 (stat.) ± 0.26 (LSS) × 10¹⁴M_⊙ and an implied concentration of c_200c = 6.3 ± 0.4, where the uncertainty represents the propagation of the mass error through the adopted concentration-mass relation and excludes intrinsic scatter. Placing our weak-lensing mass map in the context of Chandra X-ray data, MeerKAT radio imaging, Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array + Atacama Compact Array/Atacama Cosmology Telescope Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) mapping, and new JWST intracluster light measurements, we identify consistent NE-SW elongation across datasets and a pronounced offset along the same axis between the SZ and mass/X-ray peaks, pointing to significant merger activity. XLSSC 122 thus serves as a JWST pilot study for high-z lensing, demonstrating the telescope's unique ability to map cluster mass distributions at z ∼ 2. The concordance of the multiwavelength analysis here, together with the high concentration relative to ΛCDM expectations, motivates a uniform sample of analogous systems with joint lensing, X-ray, SZ, and radio data to probe cluster assembly at cosmic noon.
