Overview of Monaco from the Closed Beta Test

The construction yard is located right in the middle of the map, next to the Cathedral. It's one of the most open areas on the map, with a focus on verticality due to it still being constructed. It has 4 floors, with a crane in center. The crane, and the fact that the site is lower than the houses around it, means there is ample opportunity to scale the site.

Cathedral

The cathedral in the center of the map is the focal point of the map, often where most of the fights occur at. It's a 2 story building, with rooftop access via ziplines.

Courtyard

The most open part of the map, the courtyard has wide sightlines from the row of houses around it. In the middle there is a fountain, 2 cannons, and 2 raiseable shields.

Park

The park next to the courtyard is a bastion of peace amist the chaos of Monaco.

Features

Drivable Cranes

Interactable Cannons.
