Galleria is a community-created Player Destruction map added in the Smissmas 2023 update. It is set in the Teufort Galleria, a shopping center located in the fictional town of Teufort with Muzak blaring over the PA system.

The objective of the map sees players collecting "presents" (cans of fuel), and delivering them to the "tree" (rocket) in the center of the slippery ice rink. An ice resurfacer circles around the rink, killing any player that comes in contact with it, while the zone is closed. When either team wins the round, the tree launches through the roof of the mall's glass roof, dropping deadly debris on any players below.

This map also features its own unnamed announcer as a disinterested, bored voice with a strong New York accent coming over the intercom voiced by OctoBlitzVA.

Galleria was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Locations

  • The Ice Rink: The ice skating rink which dominates the center of the map. It contains the map's delivery zone (the "tree"), which unlocks periodically. When locked, the ice resurfacer circles the tree, instantly killing anyone who touches it. The ice is slippery, making movement difficult as players keep their momentum.
  • The Perimeter: The series of ledges and shops which directly surround the Ice Rink. The Perimeter is further divided into "RED-Side Perimeter" and "BLU-Side Perimeter", based on which spawn room is on that side of the map.
  • The Food Court: The lower half of the Perimeter, also divided into a RED and a BLU side.
  • Flank Building: The flank building is one of the buildings on the perimeter. It has no connection to the point from the second floor, but has an opening to the rink on the first floor.
  • Cinema: Directly across from the flank building is the Cinema. It is entered from each team's side by an escalator and in its center are two sets of staircases which lead down to the Perimeter, where the escalators to the Food Court are. On each side there are entrances to balconies which overlook most of the area.

  1. Responses from map creators "The Ol' Nick poster isn't a reference to any movie. It was the last poster that was created in the set and I needed something generic for red side. I re-read the "A Smissmas Story" tf2 comic and thought that Nick deserved their own poster." "the ghost busters poster wasnt made from already existing ghost busters poster, we made it from scratch, combining several ideas to one"
