Map Overview
Rottenburg overview.png
The second of our Two Cities finds the mercs defending the Medic's vaguely European hometown of Rottenburg — a sprawling village famous for its centuries-old traditions of 1) chasing the next in the resident lineage of mad doctors out of town with torches and pitchforks whenever they swapped out too many super-charged baboon hearts, and 2) never having been attacked by an army of robots. Traditions will fall, as will Rottenburg itself if the mercs can't defend its twisting cobblestone streets and iconic towers from Gray Mann's robot onslaught.
Two Cities Update

Rottenburg was officially announced as a Mann vs. Machine map on November 21, 2013, and released later that day. It takes place in the Medic's hometown Rottenburg, located near Munich in Bavarian, Germany, Europe. It is the second of two MvM maps introduced in the Two Cities Update, the first being Mannhattan. The map contains 3 missions: the Intermediate mission Village Vanguard, the Advanced missions Hamlet Hostility and Bavarian Botbash.
