Accessing the Midtown map is easy. After launching Overwatch 2, press the "Play" button in the main menu, select "Arcade," and choose the five-versus-five game mode. There are no required roles for the Midtown Pride Month map.
There are different ways to achieve victory in Midtown. On one side, your team must defend a point and stop the payload if the enemy team captures the point. As for the other side, you team must capture the point and push the payload.
Decorations that celebrate the LGBTQ+ community can be spotted all over Midtown. Notably, the police cars are absent. This is a subtle yet meaningful nod to queer history.
