Watchpoint: Gibraltar is an Escort map in Overwatch.[1]

Background

Winston-lab

Watchpoint: Gibraltar stands on the strategic point of the Rock of Gibraltar, and was an Overwatch outpost that stood guard over the Mediterranean. The base was shut down, but has showed signs of activity in recent times. This was from Winston, who as part of his intent to reform Overwatch, intended to bring the group's communication network back online.[1] Constructing a satellite drone, he needed to get it to a rocket.[1] The drone was successfully launched, and he looked on with pride.[2]

Gameplay

The map's gameplay is based on getting the drone to the rocket. The attacking side spawns in Winston's laboratory.[1]
