Background

Route 66 is an escort map in Overwatch, set along a fictional stretch of the American Southwest highway in a canyon area called Deadlock Gorge. The map's opening area features Big Earl's, a dilapidated gas station and diner flanked by towering red-rock canyon walls, with period roadtrip signage, rusting pumps, and a "Welcome to Deadlock Gorge" billboard visible at the entrance. The setting draws on classic American roadtrip iconography rendered in Blizzard's stylized near-future art direction.

Overwatch was released in May 2016 and became one of the most commercially successful and culturally prominent multiplayer games of the mid-2010s, attracting a large online community with significant presence in meme culture, streaming, and fan art.[1] Route 66 was among the game's launch maps and one of the most widely played.
