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


Regardless of whether players initiate a romance with her or not, Mitsuru is an iconic female redhead video game character whose personality develops as she reconciles with Yukari and makes her peace with her father's untimely demise. In battle, she uses status effects and ice abilities to punish any enemy foolish enough to stand in their


Roadhog is easy to counter, and is basically just a slower damage character with more health than normal. His Take a Breather healing ability is still somewhat nice, but the meta isn't forgiving for Roadhog, as he's easy to eliminate when focused and offers little protection for himself and his all


Coming straight out of the success of one of the most pivotal games in history, GoldenEye , Perfect Dark had a lot to live up to, especially since it was a while after GoldenEye's release. However, they ultimately succeeded with the game being a success as players were able to wipe out aliens as the badass fighter, Joanna D


The tank-like Artillery unit is already an intimidating adversary based on how Blizzard describes it in the BlizzConline video. It's a four-legged monster of an Omnic that can rain a barrage of small missiles and fire a charged-up duo of large rockets. There's little need to make this a more intimidating advers


One of the most highly touted features about Overwatch 2 is the fact that players of the original Overwatch aren't being left behind. Game director Jeff Kaplan has declared that this will be the future of sequels, as both games will receive all future multiplayer content as well as gameplay and graphical improveme


This is what Overwatch 2 sounds like, a slight iteration that adds improvements and features while not altering the core gameplay. Releasing a sequel that's mostly the same game but with a new coat of paint is frowned upon by most gamers who aren't into sports. This kind of behavior from Blizzard would be surprising except for one thing: they're owned by Activision, the publishers of the Call Of Duty franch


Players will love romancing her in Dragon Age: Origins and using her services as a Spymaster in Dragon Age: Inquisition . This redhead video game character has gone through a major change in the series, proving that the dark and brooding world of Dragon Age serves as a major hurdle for anyone wanting to amend their ways and try to follow the right p


One enemy type that has shown up very little, whether in the form of gameplay or concept art, is the Orbiter. These drone-like fliers seem to appear in groups and hover above players and/or objectives. In the BlizzConline video, a group of Orbiters flies over the player on both Route 66 and Numbani, and they don't seem to be attacking the player in any obvious


Throughout the nearly forty-minute showcase, Blizzard shows only up to five players on a team at a time. There’s no explicit statement regarding this choice in presentation, but it could suggest that Overwatch 2 Lore 2 will introduce a team size-adjustment down to five play


After much speculation, we know that Overwatch 2 is officially a real game . We don't know when it's coming, but we know it's in development and we can look forward to several months of news, hints, and leaks about all the new content that will be included in this sequel to Blizzard's hit hero shoo


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

Though Blizzard did not mention the Jumper by name, the new Omnic appears in a few clips alongside Omnic Grunts, Elite Grunts, and Artillery units. A flying bipedal Omnic, the Jumper seems to behave similarly to Grunt units, with the added element of vertical mobil


Revealed at last year’s BlizzCon, Sojourn is the first and only new Hero currently known to join the Overwatch roster with the upcoming sequel. While much of the character’s nature is known, some of her abilities are yet to be officially revea


But what are the best tanks to dominate and protect one's team in this wild looter shooter? Following the latest release of Hazard , Overwatch 2 has a whopping 13 tanks to choose from. Each of them brings unique styles of play, and a necessity for situational awareness to counter opponents, protect one's team, and come out on the other side to claim vict
