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
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
Although the styles differ in some areas, mostly in their gameplay, noticeable similarities can be drawn between Team Fortress 2 and Overwatch 2. Besides both being sequels, the cartoony and stylish art styles match well. Both also have roles certain characters fall into, making it the perfect game to play in between sessions of Blizzard's hero shoo
Recent job listings indicate that WBIE is working on a variety of new games, so it's possible we haven't seen the end of the Nemesis System entirely. Whether the mechanic shows up in another Middle-Earth sequel or perhaps in the upcoming Harry Potter game is unknown, but what is known is that few, if any, developers will get the chance to use the Nemesis System in other games — at least until the patent expi
Overwatch 2 comes across as something that could have been a massive patch for Overwatch 1 . It's fantastic that players will get every multiplayer add-on from the new game, but releasing a sequel that's pretty much the same with a few new bells and whistles seems more like a mandate from Activision than an artistic choice from Blizz
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
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
Which begs the question, if everything is going to be added into the first game, why do we even need a sequel? From the sound of things, it seems like Overwatch 2 should have been DLC instead of a separate full-price rele
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
You may find yourself playing a game at one moment, but then feeling the need to find something else. That new interest might be something radically different, like going from Doom to Animal Crossing. It could be something similar, like finding a game that matches enough of the same qualities as Overwatch
With the use of creative and amusing inputs, the colorful minigames both impress and tickle those who tinker with them. Whether tasks involve shaving, cracking a safe, or even munching a virtual sandwich with one's mouth, this party game brings ample fun, and a level of gyro precision rarely s
Most notably, the DPS Hero’s mobility set is unknown. However, the BlizzConline video offers some potential hints via some concept art. It shows Sojourn sliding forward with booster jets coming from her back, knees, and calves. Perhaps this is her mysterious missing abil
Last week, a YouTuber called Graslu00 uploaded footage from a canceled GoldenEye 007 remaster on the Xbox 360. The game was developed in 2007, but according to the Xbox boss Phil Spencer, became locked in a complicated legal limbo over the rights to James Bond. Between Microsoft, Nintendo, and EON (the owners of the James Bond license), it was simply too difficult to come to an agreement on business terms, and the game was eventually shelved. Graslu00, whose video shows the game in its entirety, was cagey on where the new footage came from, saying only "patience is k
With over 30 playable heroes already, there is no shortage of unique characters to choose from when readying for a fight. Still, it's always fun to try check these guys out a brand new hero, who brings their own dynamic and playstyle. Overwatch 2 will kick things off with Sojourn, who will apparently be the first Canadian hero in the g
After the fancy new animated trailer was shown off at Blizzcon, Kaplan started listing off all the goodies players would get with Overwatch 2 . Echo and Sojourn, along with possibly four more unannounced heroes would join the roster, new maps based in Toronto, Gothenburg, Monte Carlo, and Rio De Janeiro would be available, and there would be a new game mode called Push. Perhaps the most important new addition is the co-op story mode, which will finally allow fans of the series' lore to play through narrative PVE missions with their favorite charact
