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 This makes it all the more intense when trying to elude the alien beast lurking in the dark ship. The Switch version amps up this immersion with some fi...

A champion of old, Reinhardt may still be great, but his powers haven't exactly changed in recent years. Reinhardt is a fairly competent choice under the right circumstances, as his Barrier Field allows him to walk with a capable shield that can protect his whole team as he attempts to push the point and defend areas. Yet, it's easy to get behind, and his damage capabilities aren't stellar for competitive pl Matches are objective-based, with two teams of six players. Between the three modes of P...

But, you might be thinking, "Sure, Blizzard may be making it impossible to enjoy the game you bought while forcing you to play a different game - but can’t you still be Mercy in Overwatch 2?"

Overwatch’s corporate identity was clear to see through its diverse cast and clear attempts at inclusion, made worse by queer characters who were never given any strong narrative within the world itself. On the surface it was a bold statement, but dig any deeper, and you were left wanting so much more as Blizzard chased demographic approval. Its universe had so much potential for excellent stories and worthwhile sociopolitical commentary, but this clear ambition was brushed aside as the years we...

Sojourn is a decorated Overwatch member, as a result of her involvement in a ton of missions. She led a strike team against Talon forces without mercy and participated in the Storm Rising archives mission by acting as the guiding force for the team itself. It seems like she might be taking on Ana Amari's old role as a commanding member in the fact 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 ...

As you can see, the only thing that won't be patched into the first Overwatch is the story missions. Every multiplayer aspect of Overwatch 2 will be in vanilla Overwatch. For most players the online component is the only reason they play the game, so if everything is coming to the title they already own, then what value does the sequel have? If anything, Overwatch 2 sounds less like a fully-realized follow-up, and more like an iterative release in the ser A brand new 4K trailer for Mass Effect: ...

The hero shooter is a relatively new twist on the first or third person shooter genre. It's typically defined as a game where you have a selection of characters to choose from, all of which have different roles, classes, or abilities that can help your team win the game. These games are usually team-based, and have elements that are commonly found in MOBAs, such as lanes, payloads that need to be pushed, or points that need to be captu But in online play - specifically, PvP - this isn’t how it w...

I do appreciate the fact that all regular Overwatch players will have access to the new content regardless of whether or not they buy Overwatch 2 (with the exception of the singleplayer modes.) So at least they're not going to split the playerbase. But is anyone going to be around when that happens? Does Overwatch 2 Tips have enough cultural cachet to survive such a long draught of substantial content? Or will 2022 be the year that Overwatch is officially declared dead and buried as all its fans...
