Shambali Monastery

Season 2 added the Shambali Monastery, an Escort map that takes players through a Himalayan sanctuary for Omnics. This location was once home to Zenyatta, Genji, and other Omnic refugees during the Omnic Crisis.

Midtown, New York

In Hybrid mode, players can experience Midtown, New York by escorting a fire truck through the city’s famous Grand Central Station and Midtown Station. The highlight of the map is the fire station.

Paraiso, Rio de Janeiro
