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 narrati...

When most people are told to think about one famous redhead from video games, it's typically Misty. After all, Pokemon is perhaps one of the most well-known games in history and is one that keeps players engrossed in both its lore, its gameplay, and most of all, its charact Sojourn has been theorized to also join Overwatch again after laying low during its downtime. Her addition as a new hero in Overwatch 2 is perfect since it also marks her return as a member of the Overwatch 2 Juno team. It's ...

Not only will Sojourn be Canadian, but she'll also have a map related to her . Individual heroes in the game often have unique voice lines for specific maps that remind them of a part of their lore. No doubt Sojourn will have the same type of reaction when her map, Toronto, will be released. It also fits her personal lore, since after Overwatch was disbanded, Sojourn reportedly went to lay low in Toro This map is considered a classic for a reason—it's both thematically neat and well-crafted in i...

As we all know, Blizzard is owned by Activision. And if there's any company that loves putting out sequel after sequel, it's Activision. We still get a new Call Of Duty game every single year, which is insane since that means we're going on 16 years straight of COD sequels. But that method hasn't worked for other games. This strategy almost killed the Tony Hawk franchise and did kill the Guitar Hero franchise. In fact, it pretty much snuffed out the entire plastic instrument sub-genre of rhythm ...

When Overwatch 2 was revealed in 2019, I assumed that it had to be nearly finished. Obviously Blizzard was announcing it because it was going to be releasing sometime in 2020. Otherwise, it could risk losing a lot of its popularity. Devoting resources to working on a sequel rather than adding content to the current game could cause players to drop off as the updates became less frequent. So it had to be just about ready to come One of the most significant additions coming with Overwatch 2 is it...

Losing a tank opened the door for major, much needed reworks to a lot of heroes. Tanks like Reinhardt and Orisa now have more utility and survivability since they have to tank for the entire team, while shield breakers like Bastion get to take a step back and fill a different role. I’m not suggesting that every character is perfectly balanced now, but I see so many improvements already. It’s hard not to be excited about the new Overwatch meta. A shakeup like this was never going to happen withou...

And yet, I remain hopeful. I’ve never been accused of being an optimist, but I think Overwatch 2 has a potential that the original was never going to realize. There’s plenty to criticize about Overwatch 2, but there’s also some things we can appreciate. Four or five years down the road, we may just find Overwatch 2 in a better position than Overwatch was ever going to be in. Blizzard has done a horrendous job marketing and championing this game, but allow me to take a stab at it: I think Overwat...

Don’t get me wrong - I don’t mind that there’s an Overwatch 2. Hell, I don’t even give a shit that it’s a free-to-play nightmare that’s going to be dominated by kids with rich parents. I work in show business - the entire world is dominated by kids with rich parents. And I respect that in order to keep their esports racket fresh, Blizzard creates new Overwatch content just like how their professional players create new racial slurs. One enemy type that has shown up very little, whether in the fo...

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 The cutthroat leader of the Junkers comes to Overwatch 2 in full force, bringing her axe, Carnage abilities, and a scattergun. Junker Queen compliments other attack characters thanks to her Commanding Shout, which ...

Although Reyes was given command of Overwatch, it isJack Morrison who is mostly credited with transforming the unit into a devastating fighting force. He trained the other founding members Ana Amari, Mina Liao, Torbjorn Lindholm, and Reinhardt Wilheim to work together as a team and led the strike team against the Omnics. The team destroyed the main Omnic control center in Rio de Janeiro and successfully put an end to the Omnic Cri Many big multiplayer titles - such as Sea Of Thieves most recentl...
