New Overwatch Paris Map Live on PTR

Overwatch has just released its new Paris map on the games' public test region server.

The new map is an assault map like Temple of Anubis and Volskaya Industries. As such it will see players trying to capture or defend points while navigating iconic Parisian scenery alongside the Seine river.
