But Blizzard left out a few enemy types seen in a concept art image shown during the video. Most notable were the humanoid, Omnic grunt-looking bots with wings and red armor and an enormous, gorilla-like bot hulking over the rest in the lineup. These enemies may not appear in the final build, but it’s interesting to wonder what they might

You might think this is apples and oranges. You had to buy both Warcraft 2 and 3, just like you had to buy Smash Bros. Ultimate and Melee. Meanwhile, Overwatch 2 is free. You’re basically getting a new game for the price of only one game! Except, again, that doesn’t mean I only want the new game and never want to see the old one again.

Thanks to its support, Siege has received loads of operators and maps, with some reworked to fit its ever-changing landscape. It is equal parts strategy and good aim to utilize equipment, communication, and gunfire to complete the objective or to wipe out the enemy team. This game takes a lot of dedication to master, but one that is worth it if you

Reinhardt is a team-based tank, and he's great for putting pressure on foes, thanks to his gigantic shield that allies can shoot behind. Reinhardt has a Rocket Hammer for dealing melee damage, and a Charge ability to launch himself and grapple enemies, but he's ineffective against long-range targets when his shield is down, and his reliance on team composition makes him very situatio

One element that Overwatch 2 will seemingly have in spades is an abundance of cooperative missions and full-fledged hero missions. Not only will we get to play with newly introduced upgrades, but we'll get to live out cinematic stories that play an important part in the already rich, expansive lore of Overwatch . These will take place following Winston's call to reunite the Overwatch t

While not quite a shooter, if you want a major shift in the hero-based space while still getting a fix similar to Overwatch 2, Knockout City makes for a great breath of fresh air without the actual fresh air of abandoning your gaming p

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

Yet, rather than have one team focus on defending an area while another attacks, this mode will present an equal, pendulum-swinging playing field, centered around a large robot that can be moved by teams controlling the zone near it. Each team will also be given a barricade, which the bot will push towards the opponent's s

Veteran Overwatch players might remember a game unrecognizable to the current build. Players could stack the same character across an entire team. Bastion’s turret mode also gave him a shield. Most infamously, Mercy’s ultimate let her resurrect as many as five teammates with a flick of her wr

The Null Sector has appeared as Overwatch’s PvE enemies for various Seasonal Events, and Blizzard is looking to make big changes and additions to the robot army. The BlizzConline showcase revealed enemy types like objective units that carry bombs, upgraded versions of Omnic grunts, spry little bots referred to as "chickens" internally at Blizzard, and several m

One of the neatest inclusions of Overwatch 2 has to be the new upgrades and customizations to hero abilities. Now, this will - at least initially - be limited to the PvE missions, as they would grant an unfair advantage over Overwatch 1 players. Still, it'll certainly be neat to take out hordes of Omnics with powers like Tracer's new juiced-up Pulse Bomb Ultimate, "Chain Reacti

The latest tank addition to Overwatch 2 , Hazard is a large and potent force of nature, with his (relative) mobility combined with his sheer power from close and medium range. His mechanics and slew of abilities give him a vibe that's something of a Winston and Doomfist fusion, with a bit of Sigma, Genji and even Mei (Jagged Wall being the key similari

His Power Block ability also allows him to negate the damage done to him, and absorbing heavy damage will enhance the power of Rocket Punch . Whilst Doomfist can no longer one-hit enemies with the Rocket Punch, he's still powerful to those who know when to go in, dish out damage, and jump

Considering the servers of OW2 will be shared with the original game, it would stand to reason that OW2 should contain cross-play among multiple platforms as well. There is, of course, the issue of the PC setup typically offering the superior experience, leading to some player advanta

Blizzard recently held its BlizzConline event, during which the company revealed a slew of new information on its upcoming games , including Overwatch 2 Weapons 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
