Overwatch

It's the first of several Blizzard games that are coming to the platform.

OWL team owners will vote whether to end the current city-based franchise format.

This might be as close as fans get to a TV show based on Blizzard's universe.

Newcomers will be able to unlock the first six of the sequel's new heroes with a Game Pass Ultimate perk.

But Blizzard has scaled back its PvE ambitions for the game.

You'll be able to play the new character for free for a limited time.

This year's Valentine's Day event will feature a browser-based dating sim.

Blizzard is also adding a system to automatically take down inappropriate custom game modes.

The Greek mythology-themed season will go live on December 6th.

Although the postpaid number requirement was meant to block cheaters, it also kept innocent players from trying the game.

The verification tool hasn't been popular with "Overwatch 2" players.

The new system is called Defense Matrix (because D.Va has always been the real star).

You'll need to grind to unlock playable characters, or maybe even pay to snag them faster.

Players can continue to earn free cosmetics until the release of "Overwatch 2."

Just waiting on that sequel to replace it.

The studio has "no plans" to create new characters or skins for players to buy.

You can also expect free updates every nine weeks.

It looks like Junker Queen will be playable soon.

It may be looking to address criticism of the first PvP beta by revealing what's ahead for the sequel.

This is just a slice of the full sequel and it's shaping up just fine.
