Harvest is a King of the Hill map. It was released with the Haunted Halloween Special Update as an official community-developed map due to its outstanding quality. A separate Halloween-themed version of the map, Harvest Event, was also released with the update for players to celebrate the annual holiday. It includes many gameplay elements that are unique to the map.

The goal is to capture the control point and seize it for a duration of 3 minutes, while stopping the other team from doing the same.

Locations

Overview of the map.(Large file)
  • The Center Shed - At the center of the map, a bombed-out shed houses the Control point. This building is open at both ends, and most of the roof is missing.
  • The Farmhouses - Located directly in front of each team's spawn area, these large houses have two stories with windows and a roof overlooking the center shed. There are three exits/entrances: one is located in-front of the spawn, the other at the very end of the long hallway past the stairs, and the other at the end of the short hallway next to the stairs.
  • Side Sheds - The side sheds are located next to the farm houses. Open at one end, these sheds contain a Medium Health Pickup inside.
