Oasis Map Now Playable in Overwatch

If you've been paying attention to the Overwatch PTR, then you already know about the Oasis map. It's the new, small control point map recently added to the main game. It's not as big as Eichenwalde, but unlike Ecopoint Antarctica, Oasis is intended to be a typical map utilized by full teams of six instead of 3 or 1. Take a look at the new map in the video below.



The Oasis is a huge jewel of the desert in the world of Overwatch. Unlike the mostly dystopian style of most of the other maps (I'm looking at you, Volskaya Industries), it is very bright and colorful. Also, it's the first one to sport extremely deadly cars. It joins the ranks of Nepal and Lijiang Tower as a 3-round, shared control point.

Oasis is the second fully functioning map to be added to Overwatch since the official launch. To date, we have added two characters, three maps, a few holiday events, and a handful of updates and tweaks. Surely, this is only the start to new, exotic locales to the world of Overwatch. If you're wanting to check it out, there's a special brawl for it in the Arcade. Take a look.
