Junkertown Notes

listen i’ve been rambling on my twitter all night about junkertown so here’s a compilation of some of the map/lore/trivia/easter egg detail stuff i discovered by watching way too many streams of the map’s gameplay and rewatching the shorts over and over again lmao. there’s a lot of things people haven’t noticed yet or have noticed but couldn’t make the aussie connection so i’m here to shed some light for y’all

(and here are my notes on actual gameplay things instead of just map lore/detail stuff)

"the queen's decree: 1. NO omnics 2. pay your share 3. finders keepers 4. settle your own scores 5. troublemakers will be EXILED"

"WARNING: NO FUEL FOR 375KM" sign often appears around the map. though there is also giant red “petrol” tanks around the map but who knows about the actual rations hmmm

“DANGER KEEP OUT” around the map but most importantly it’s a sign that appears on the dunny i’m laughing that must be some explosive shit they got there (dunny = outhouse)

recycled rain water tanks has “RECYCLED” crossed out and written on it is “DRINKING WATER” so looks like they rely on rain water as source of water rather than possibly radiation poisoned rivers/lakes/etc

if you missed it there’s a pit of dead omnics by the throne/at the last checkpoint. also hilariously enough they placed a healthpack in that pit.

SIGNS SIGNS SIGNS so many street signs scattered about and also written signs like arrows pointint to corridors, signs for stairs, exits, also a “WATCH YOUR STEP” sign on ledges lmao

posters for junkrat and roadhog scattered around junkertown that read "do NOT admit [drawing of roadhog and junkrat] shoot ON SIGHT"

poster for “wrecking ball champion” and another poster i can’t quite make out ‘LOD--’ (dashes stand for letters i can’t make out but the first two letters might be partially covered hard to tell atm)

scrapyard sign reveals location of junkertown to be near perth

pub name is “wolf wood’s” possible game of throne reference? also is a spawn point

the tattoo parlour has an image of roadhog’s stomach tattoo “wild hog power” hanging on the wall with a label “SOLD” on it. junkrat’s shoulder tattoo is also on another wall of the parlour

kelvin 506 poster referencing the novel fahrenheit 451 aka dystopian anti-intellecual totalitarian future

restaurant sign says “take-out” when really it should be “takeaway” literally unplayable how could u do this to us blizzard lmao (jk, it’s just a small error but for aussies it’s noticable ok and here’s a hilarious thread about it)

you can Sit On Roadhog’s Bike this is important ok

roadhog’s bed has a breathing apparatus installed so it looks like our boy hoggie has some serious breathing issues confirmed

junkrat’s work desk is actually quite small and neat

colour association is pretty big in overwatch yeah and it looks like the queen’s weapons next to the thrown has yellow medic vial attached or something similar, so it could suggest that she’s part medic. thinking about it it’d make sense given that in an irradiated area then medicinal knowledge and skills would be highly valued in the society

betting counters in the scrapyard for fights. art on the wall depicting two fighters ‘elvin sog vs bludger’ (edit: deciphered, it says elvin sog. not sure what it’s referring to though)

there’s a blackboard in junkrat and roadhog’s warehouse with their plan written on it “THE PLAN: 1. amass [--------] 2. load the trolley 3. acquire disguises 4. put on disguises 5. take trolley to gate 6. [scribble] sneak inside 7. light fuse 8. profit” point 1 is going to be about amassing wealth/treasure/gold or something but i can’t make out the Exact Words right now. but lol. old ‘profit’ meme

what the heck the tattoo parlour is named “SWAGMAN’S NEEDLE POINT” LmAO. okay on a serious note swagman = labourer who moved around from farm to farm with their belongings in a bedroll aka a ‘swag’ (wiki here about swagman)

the wreckyard is named “BRUCE’S WRECKYARD” first of all bruce is the MOST cliched aussie name we can get mate lmaooo. but also, possible jaw’s reference to ‘junkyard bruce’ the only surviving prop shark from jaws movie after surviving in a junkyard for 25 years!

i haven’t slept since idk how long so i might have forgotten a few things and left them out but yeah enjoy! i’ll edit in things if i remember any more so feel free to check back again for updates
