Erebus is a community-made Attack/Defend Control Point map released during the Scream Fortress 2021 update. It is set in an haunted mine located somewhere in a forest, A nearby volcano and Hydro electric dam overflowing with lava have caused pits of lava to open up on the map.
In Erebus, the goal of the attackers, BLU, is to win through a series of stages in order to win the map. Within each stage, the attackers must capture two control points, A and B, which are held by the defenders, RED. Point A must be captured before the attackers can assault B.
Erebus was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
