Quick Strategy Tips
Full guideRoute 66 takes teams to a classic American highway setting, with the payload rolling past a gas station, through a motel, under a tunnel, and across to the final train car. The map is perhaps the most straightforward escort map in the game, but its simplicity hides significant depth in how positions and rotations play out. The three phases cover the gas station approach, the motel and diner mid-section, and the open train finale. Route 66 is heavily affected by Bastion and Symmetra defensive setups, making utility ultimates extremely valuable for breaking through the chokepoints.
