Put it this way: I’m a Reinhardt main. I want to use my shield to close distances and control engagements. When I spot an opening, my job as main tank is to communicate that to the rest of the team so we can push forward as a unit. Ideally, the engagement process will go smoothly and I’ll have a support player keeping me healthy while I swing my Rocket Hammer as if I’m a massive, precision-engineered beyblade. I’ll synchronize my Earthshatter with a DPS ult so we can team kill and lock down the po
Blizzard's Overwatch 2 video showcase also contains some details that are easy to miss on top of these new announcements. Like everything else shown in the video, these details are subject to change, but some give players a few ideas for what to expect in the seq
Though this mechanical maestro may not be making waves in the competitive meta, he’s often a wonderful pick for PvE. If you played Overwatch’s Uprising event, you’ll know how useful he can be – his mix of armor and damage-dealing allow for adaptive play, and besides, with some keen placement, his turret is practically a second teamm
The robots immediately attacked across the globe. Cities began to fall, as every country on the planet quickly learned that no matter how powerful their armies were, they were no chance against the Omnic threat. As the hour grew darker, the United Nations collaborated and formed an elite unit of their best soldiers. This super team would come to be known as Overwat
Investigations found a secret division called Blackwatch was involved in a series of kidnappings, torture, coercion, and assassinations. While the United Nations continued to look deeper into Overwatch’s activity, internal strife was building. Upset that Morrison received the strike-commander promotion over himself, Reyes formed his own faction among the age
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
I’ve got my Transcendence ready to go, meaning that when Genji pulls his Dragonblade, I can protect my entire team by moving alongside him and nullifying all of the damage he’s trying to dish out. I used to be pretty good at Overwatch back when I played more regularly, so I’m patiently waiting for a specific sign - that telling dash up into the air to give him a clear view of the targets below him. "Ryūjin no ken wo kur
Setting aside the humor behind the "C9" reference, this screenshot could indicate Clans and/or Guilds coming to Overwatch 2 — and across all other Blizzard games. It’s a feature long anticipated by Blizzard communities and could be coming with Overwatc
Even getting past the heavy use of Blizzard gimmicks, the layout of the map itself can also be annoying. With its narrow passageways and higher-level paths that criss-cross it, any defending team worth its salt tends to have a huge advantage; especially near the bottleneck that makes up the beginning/Assault portion of the game. The only real advantage for the attackers tends to be the indoor portion at the end - but good luck making it th
Revealed at last year’s BlizzCon, Sojourn is the first and only new Hero currently known to join the Overwatch 2 Season 16 roster with the upcoming sequel. While much of the character’s nature is known, some of her abilities are yet to be officially revea
The follow-up to the hit hero-based shooter Overwatch has recently been announced by Blizzard , which has its millions of fans buzzing with anticipation and talks as to what fun new additions the game will contain. It's already been announced that Overwatch 2 will add to the already vast lineup of heroes, kicking things off with at least one new charac
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
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
By the merit of the title alone, Overwatch 2 would seem to be an outright sequel , rather than a marginal expansion or batch of DLC packs. Yet, the fact that we currently only have the reveal of a single new heroin Sojourn (with the potential of the robotic Echo as well), it tends to look more like the latte
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
