Route 66 is an Escort map in Overwatch. In this case, the payload is a nuclear weapon.

Background

Though the travelers and road trippers who used to cross the US on historic Route 66 are gone, the Main Street of America still stands, a testament to a simpler time. The gas stations, roadside shops, and cafes have gone into disuse, and the fabled Deadlock Gorge is mostly seen from the comfort of transcontinental train cars. But amid the fading monuments of that earlier era, the outlaws of the Deadlock Gang are planning their biggest heist yet.[1]

Known Locations

  • Deadlock Gorge
    • The High Side
    • The Cave Inn
    • Zed's Garage
    • Deadlock Propane
    • The Cave of Mystery
    • Big Earl's
    • The Panorama Diner

Strategy

Attack

There are a lot of vantage points in Route 66. If you are a sniper, it is a good map to get to a high point and pick off enemies. It is also a good map for Torbjiorn to set up his turrets and Hazo to use dragonstrike.

Defense

Quince is a blobfish, it has no brain and is a retarded blobfish.

Trivia

  • An outhouse can be found on the map that originally contained magazine images of Symmetra and Mercy. The magazines were removed in a later patch.[2]
  • Inside the attackers' first spawn, there is a picture of McCree on the underside of the bar.
