Busan is a Control map in Overwatch.

Background

Busan at night

Busan came under attack by the Gwishin omnics. MEKA successfully defeated them, but at the cost of all their mechs bar the one piloted by D.Va and some damage to the city itself. They attacked the city again one week later, in contrast to the usual gap of months. This left only D.Va to defend the city, but she managed to destroy the attackers.

Gameplay

This section is a stub section. You can help by adding any available information to this section.

Each turn is played on one of the three sections of the map:

• Downtown
• Sanctuary
• MEKA Base

Unique Features

There are two interactive objects:

Dance Floor

Dance Floor is a DDR-style arcade cabinet in the player's spawn in Busan: Downtown. The player can jump on the correct directional arrow on the dance pad matching up with what's on screen.

Alternatively, the player can also use a dance emote to get all Perfects.

Karaoke

There is also a karaoke room in one of the enemy's spawn. The background music is a shortened version of D.Va's theme song in Heroes of the Storm. Pressing the microphone with the interact button with Reinhardt will cause him to sing.

Trivia

• The MEKA base is also the background for the animated short Shooting Star.
• A modified version of the Sanctuary spawn room was used as a Main Menu background for Lunar New Year 2017 (and 2018), 544 days before the map was officially revealed.
• Some of the buildings in the background of the Downtown map recycled buildings models from the Busan Stadium, which was a Lúcioball 2018 map.
• Captain Myung's voice has heard in the MEKA base.
• The Busan map was first unveiled at Korea Overwatch Fan Festival on August 22, 2018 and added to the PTR server on that day.
• A Busan map was made by Shua Llorente in June, 2018—two months before Blizzard's version was released. This led some to speculate whether the timing of the map reveals was coincidental. When asked, Llorente stated ""I don’t think Blizzard was inspired by my map, since I’m the one who was inspired by their environments, and I’m the one who uses their map as a guide in creating my own maps."
