Blizzard gave us a peak at a new map today named Lunar Colony complete with lore:
Horizon Lunar Colony is an Assault map set in a scientific base on the moon. Built as a first step towards humanity’s renewed exploration of space, the colony’s goal was to examine the effects of prolonged extraterrestrial habitation—on human and ape alike. The scientists’ research proved incredibly promising…until, suddenly, all contact and communications with the base were lost.
Now, many years later, attacking and defending teams must return to the moon and battle for control of the colony’s facilities, all while they discover clues as to the fate of its previous inhabitants.
Our Take
The more maps and modes they add to Overwatch the better. Along with the 3 new maps as part of the Anniversary event, Overwatch’s depth and variety continues to grow.
