Those who want to completely kick back and get lost in Link's latest epic on Switch don't need to do so without moving about, as Nintendo offers the option to turn off motion . But for those who seeking greater immersion, this darker sequel to the fan-favorite Breath of the Wild has players covered. Like its predecessor, the gyro features are subtle and tastefully done without being a bur

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

For the first couple of years, Overwatch was unstoppable. Each new hero was a major event, hyped up with months of speculation as players tried to guess who was coming our way next by digging into the game’s files or drawing from small clues left behind by Jeff Kaplan and friends. Sombra, Doomfist, Orisa, Ashe, Ana, Moira, and Brigitte were all big deals, igniting imagination across the fandom with how their relationships intertwined with the existing roster and how their position in the narrative would come to play an important role.

While Overwatch has made for a truly fun and exhilarating competitive shooter, one key element it's been lacking is PvE. Sure, we've gotten limited-time events like Junkenstein's Revenge but these are few and far between and don't exactly have a ton of substa

The 2024 edition offers a vast, diverse list of new songs and new game modes, including streamlined online multiplayer. It also brings a song-sharing hub into the mix, which permits players in this virtual space to share songs from any edition of the ser

Aiming with the bow feels as great as ever, and other bits are sprinkled in which cleverly utilize the tech, adding to the puzzle elements in areas like Shrines. These controls only further the dynamic, organic feel of this fantasy adventure, already enhanced with vibrant visuals and the all-new Sky Islands and Depths regi

Although the focus of the new OW2 reveals has been on co-op romps and PvE story missions, one of the big announcements was the introduction of Push. This is a more traditional PvP mode that seems to resemble Escort in a se

The game's initial trailer also revealed the inclusion of customizable abilities, which will likely include tweakable visual flair for hero Ultimates. This array of personalized features should make for an even more chaotic and dynamic experience in O

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 Freja gameplay strategies tim

While it's been announced that PvE missions will introduce various items that can be picked up - which will grant boosts like healing and shields - some sort of grabbable items and/or weapons for PvP could really make things interesting. Something similar to Smash Bros Ultimate , which tosses a myriad of game-changing items at you, could add an additional element of chaos and

Something reminiscent of the 3v3 elimination mode in Arcade, or a game similar to solo deathmatch, which limits players to a DPS hero to keep things relatively even, should make for a thrilling face-off. It could take place in a vast arena, which could shrink over time, and upgrades could even be implemented to reward better play in-game. The possibilities with this are endl

It's probably safe to assume that there are other objective units planned for Overwatch 2. And chances are we've already seen some of them. Little is explained, for instance, about the Orbiters, Slicers, and a few unnamed Omnics seen in some of the featured concept

But in PvE, Roadhog is a real contender. He can deal respectable damage with his scrap gun’s alternate fire being able to one-shot most common enemies. Even more useful is his hook, which can steal snipers from their perch - and to round off his skillset, his Whole Hog ultimate makes crowd control a breeze by pushing back advancing groups and breaking down heav

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

So long as you can dodge and evade enemy fire and make strategic use of her recall ability, Tracer can deal consistently high DPS while enjoying the use of her quick-charging sticky bomb ultimate abil

With its complete mechanical overhaul done for Overwatch 2, Bastion the point-controlling turret is no more. Instead, this bionic buddy-of-birds is now an all-terrain vehicle, with its stationary turret having been traded for a new Assault mode which transforms Bastion into a roaming, mini gun-firing t
