The grim reality is that the entire reason Overwatch 2 exists is to change the way Blizzard makes money. All of the meta changes, like the battle pass, Coin system, and locking new players out of content until they grind enough, are designed to increase revenue and engagement metrics. I don’t think we should ignore that or give Blizzard a pass, and if that’s enough to get you to give up on Overwatch 2 I don’t blame you. As someone who still loves the game, I’m willing to accept fewer free rewards if it means more frequent updates and better events. It’s simply too soon to write it off for me. I need to see how the devs respond to feedback and how much the game changes over the next year. None of this is ideal, but in the long run, it could end up being exactly what Overwatch nee
So many people are focusing on what the story might be, or how a campaign might look based on the tidbits of lore we’ve garnered from short films and comics. I’d like to learn more about Reinhardt, sure, but that’s not what Overwatch 2 needs to be. It needs a refined combat loop that offers you the same thrills of Competitive play, but in co-op
Though her Pulse Pistols have been nerfed and now deal a point less damage per bullet, due to an armor overhaul, she deals more damage to armored targets than before. Like other quick-firing heroes, Tracer can make short work of most enemies if exploiting their weak spots and dealing critical h
I am not thrilled about the new monetization, and I think at the very least there needs to be more ways to earn Overwatch Coins. That being said, we all know how free-to-play games work. If Blizzard makes a bunch of $20 skins, people will buy them. The hope is that Blizzard will reinvest that revenue back into the game so that we don’t have to replay Lucioball or Mei’s Snowball Offensive for the umpteenth time. We’re going to get five or six heroes a year instead of two or three. We’re going to get new maps, new game modes, and a whole new PvE story experience. Overwatch needs to change and grow all the time to keep people playing. The original wasn’t built to be that game, but hopefully Overwatch 2
Regardless of whether players initiate a romance with her or not, Mitsuru is an iconic female redhead video game character whose personality develops as she reconciles with Yukari and makes her peace with her father’s untimely demise.

Borderlands allows players to control one of many playable characters in the world , with Lilith being one of the series’ most iconic characters who has remained a staple of the games since the very first entry. She takes on the role of the Siren in the first game and plays a pivotal role in the story for the sequels, with her character being a highlight of each game in the ser
The stealth-assassin hero may not be the first to come to mind when picking for a PvE match, but the changes made to her character in Overwatch 2 have cranked up her abilities with only a minor nerf to her bullet damage. Against the less evasive NPCs in PvE, her SMG can crank up her DPS with a barrage of critical h
This is an enjoyable, well-crafted Hybrid map to tangle in, particularly for more defensively-minded players, who can utilize the solid chokepoint under the bridge which leads to the initial capture po
While Winston was recruiting new agents, someone codenamed Soldier: 76 was raiding former Overwatch bases to salvage technology. It was later revealed that Soldier: 76 was actually Morrison and he had survived the explosion. Morrison joined Winston along with Genji, Reinhardt, Brigitte Lindholm, Echo, and Angela Ziegler after saving Paris from Null Sector. Lucio and Sojourn would also join Overwatch shortly after, officially sparking the second iteration of the global strike team. With the rise of attacks across the globe, the people of the world need Overwatch now more than e

Although Reyes was given command of Overwatch 2 Skins, it isJack Morrison who is mostly credited with transforming the unit into a devastating fighting force. He trained the other founding members Ana Amari, Mina Liao, Torbjorn Lindholm, and Reinhardt Wilheim to work together as a team and led the strike team against the Omnics.

Once you let me combo my Earthshatter with somebody else’s ult, or give me a Zarya who bubbles me as I charge headfirst into a massive mech, I’ll be happy. Maybe I’ll even put another 1,000 hours
