Get control of Antarctica Peninsula


Antarctic Peninsula is now the first Control Map. Overwatch 2 and takes inspiration from the iconic Ecopoint base featured in the “Rise and Shine” animated short that chronicled some of Mei’s backstory. The base, created by Overwatch to help find the cause of the planet’s radical change in climate, housed many scientists, along with Mei, who were in the middle of this research when they were trapped by a massive storm. Mei, who had decided to take refuge in cryostasis and wait to be rescued by Overwatch would become the first to wake up from this nightmare 10 years later. From here, she continued to support the efforts of fellow scientists.

The snow-themed map will contain a variety of lore bits scattered around for curious fans, such as an icebreaker ship that was stuck in the ice and tried to rescue Mei, her friends, and an underground drilling station, which hints at some work that these scientists did.

“There are so many areas that we think players are going to love exploring in the new Antarctica map,” mentions Overwatch 2 Art Director Dion Rogers. “But I will say that fighting in an abandoned ice breaker ship is pretty rad.”

Additional level designs will feature flanks and high ground elements that can make or break a team’s success. Also, be sure to say hello to some of the facility’s current residents…

“Antarctica is a unique map.” says Overwatch 2 Lead Narrative Designer Gavin Jurgens-Fyhrie. “Not only does it hint at the mysterious answers to a number of long-standing questions about the lore, it spans a number of locations in Antarctica, offering a lot of gameplay variety, new places to explore, and easter eggs to find. It also has penguins,”
