The new map is based in the city of Paris.

Battle through alleys and corridors before clashing with your foes on the banks of the Seine. Once you establish dominance over your adversaries, make your way to Maison Marat and deliver the coup-de-grâce.

The Paris map is live now in Overwatch for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
