I haven’t played enough of the game to judge its new direction and updated mechanics, thus placing a score on the experience doesn’t only feel unfair, but unprofessional. But what I can do is admire the sexy menus and slick user interface, since I don’t need any friends to lose myself in the cauldron of stats, modes, and heroes that make up the logistical majority of Blizzard’s hero shooter sequel. A real review is coming, but for now this will have to do.


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


With the release of Overwatch 2 , players have been anticipating the exciting PvE story mode and its new enemies . Unlike the standard 5v5, PvE is a different beast entirely, and teams will have to focus on crowd control and DPS, so maybe your beloved Lúcio or Doomfist might have to warm the bench
First up is the main menu, which is a real snazzy bit of presentation. The first thing you’ll notice is how much the colour scheme has changed, with many of the tones updated to feel more modern and grounded compared to the cartoonish first game. There’s still plenty of room for silliness, but the orchestral score is even more soaring and extravagant, doing its best to emphasise how this is a glorious return to form despite most of the game playing and looking the same. First impressions count though, and Overwatch 2 skins 2 doesn’t disappoint.

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


After all, Activision has a reputation as the company that likes to drive its games into the ground with constant releases. It released so many Guitar Hero games that it practically salted the Earth when it comes to the rhythm genre. It's also easy to remember that Bungie was originally said to have a ten-year plan for Destiny until Destiny 2 went into production. Considering their public break-up with Activision earlier this year, it's plausible that Activision had a hand in pushing the former Halo developer into coming up with a sequel to drive fans over to the next g


Aiming with the bow feels as great as ever, and other bits are sprinkled in which cleverly utilize the tech, adding to the puzzle elements in areas like Shrines. These controls only further the dynamic, organic feel of this fantasy adventure, already enhanced with vibrant visuals and the all-new Sky Islands and Depths regi


Blizzcon is scheduled for February 19-20 and an update on Overwatch 2 has been promised . I really hope Jeff Kaplan and company have some good news to share, because they're going to need to give lapsed fans like myself a reason to consider coming b

In the absence of playing any actual games in Overwatch 2, I had a decent amount of fun staring at its menus as the search time for a match moved into the double digits. There was a weird smugness to seeing the years of work I put into the first entry immediately reflected in the updated client, which to me looks slicker and better presented than anything that came before it.


Where she really shines is critical hits; with such high damage per shot, if she’s getting headshots, she’s getting eliminations. An accurate Ashe player can take down a band of bandits or what have you with the ease and style of Arthur Morgan using Deadeye in Red Dead Redemption

There’s a few new options - most notably the presence of an in-game shop and battle pass. Loot boxes are gone for good, with premium currency and seasonal progression now used to earn skins and other cosmetics. Time will tell whether this model works, but Blizzard isn’t shy about putting it front and centre. Aside from that everything here is basically the same, and that includes graphical settings and other such options that I forgot to take screenshots of before being locked out of the review build. Trust me on this one.

The Overwatch 2 battle pass is clean and simple. I’m surprised Blizzard didn’t decide to push the boat out or try something new with its implementation of the mechanic, because what we have here is rather basic and predictable. Some tiers have more than one reward hidden away inside them which is cool, and the variety of cosmetics is quite incredible and makes great use of the extensive hero roster, but what you’re working towards is very clear.


Well, it turns out I was wrong. Quite wrong. It now looks like Overwatch 2 won't be out until 2022 at the earliest, which likely means regular vanilla Overwatch won't see any significant updates for over a year. And that's a very bad thing when it comes to maintaining a stable fanbase for your multiplayer shoo
