Blizzard recently held its BlizzConline event, during which the company revealed a slew of new information on its upcoming games , including Overwatch 2 . While no release date or time frame was announced, the almost forty-minute video unveiled many new details about the highly anticipated hero shooter. Some exciting announcements included two new map reveals, a look at the new enemy designs, and new passive role attribu

A high-risk and high-reward tank, Doomfist isn't an easy character to learn, but he sure is fun. Players can take that element of fun and turn Doomfist into a monster, thanks to his fast abilities, which will see him bully other smaller targets like attackers and support. Doomfist can easily get behind targets, using an assortment of slams, punches, and his hand cannon to delete the health of his f

Like many of you, I enjoyed Overwatch , a video game that I purchased with human money. In fact, because I thought Overwatch would continue to exist, I bought it on more than one platform. I’m not right in the head sometimes, so I actually believed that by purchasing a video game on a physical disc, I would get to play it for a while. I figured I had years to enjoy being a D-level Mercy failing to heal teammates who lowkey hated me.

It’s the same corporate avarice that led us to Stadia , only Google was far more incompetent with how they sold it. Fortunately, Google has more money than there are gods in the heavens; they can (mostly) pay people back for the company’s mistake . But remember Stadia wasn’t a live game that just didn’t take off. It was an entire platform that didn’t take off. A platform that Google promised would stay online for the foreseeable future. And, like Blizzard, Google could also afford the servers.

Blizzard briefly mentions elemental abilities and how they affect enemy animations. But these damage types — like "freeze damage" and "electrical damage" — change how enemies behave and how Heroes can attack them. For example: on Reinhardt’s Talent page, Blizzard shows an ability called Icy Pains. It reads: "Charge deals 150% more Pin damage to Frozen enemies and keeps enemies Frozen while they’re Pinn

Sojourn has been said to be one of the primary characters in Overwatch 2. Everything is likely to revolve around her, which is a nice change of pace from having Tracer as the continuous poster girl of the franchise. Hopefully, fans will get to see different characters increasingly take center stage in Overwatch 2, like Sojo

At this year's BlizzCon event — entitled BlizzConline for its all-digital format — Blizzard released a forty-minute video dedicated to Overwatch 2 . It showcased the new Talents system, two new maps, and a few things that might get overlooked on one viewing. There was no release date announced, but there's enough for Overwatch fans to chew on until Blizzard nails down an official launch d

Based on the lack of Ult charge and Sojourn’s blue glow in this clip, this looks to be Sojourn’s Ultimate ability for this build of Overwatch 2. It looks very powerful but also super reliant on good aim and tim

Wrecking Ball doesn't dish out the most effective damage with his Quad Cannons, but his Grappling Claw and Piledriver abilities mean he can keep pushing enemies away, distracting them, to simply roll off and come back ready for more. His Minefield ultimate also traps the enemy field with explosive mines, making him a true burden for the enemy team who will have to focus on what's ahead, whilst also looking out for Wrecking Ball, who is always flank

Even better still, Winston has a Jump Pack that allows him to get involved in the fight, or jump away from it, and his Barrier Projector allows for a shield bubble that can trap enemies and ensure their damage does not leave the dome. Whilst he doesn't deal the best damage, he can be great at distracting and targeting even great support heroes whilst other heroes run in to take care of mean squ

The cosmetic menu has also received some cool updates, making it much easier to navigate and understand. Bold text is used to distinguish categories while a single glance at the menu is enough to see exactly what you have equipped at any given time. Seeing all of my unlocks transfer over to Overwatch 2 was also a sad reminder of how much time I’ve poured into this series. My accounts haven’t even combined yet either, so I promise you I have more than 14 D.Va skins to my name. All the voice lines unlocked too, I am dedicated to my girl.

The leader of Null Sector, Ramattra will show the world his brutality through his many freja abilities breakdown. Ramattra has a Void Accelerator as his main form of attack, which fires a stream of projectiles, like a weaker version of Orisa's turret. He can also throw up Void Barriers to shield himself and allies, and his Ravenous Vortex will make sure enemies can't stay behind one place for cover, as their health will be eaten
