With high health and quick healing, Roadhog’s survivability is no doubt his strong suit. In fact, his self-sufficiency has Roadhog often ranked as one of the worst tanks for standard PvP as he has no means of protecting or supporting his teammates aside from acting as a human shi


Blizzard briefly discussed Sojourn’s main weapon during the video, describing it as a rail gun. There’s also plenty of footage of Sojourn shooting with her primary fire, which looks to behave like an assault rifle. But one clip of Sojourn, playing on King’s Row, shows the upcoming Hero shooting her rail gun several times in quick succession. An indicator under the reticle shows what looks like a charge ti


Like with the earlier Talon and Uprising Missions you can expect to spend less time dueling fearsome foes and more time fighting off rounds of riffraff and robots. So in PvE, a mixture of crowd control, high damage and adaptability are key– sorry Reinhardt and Widowmaker mains, you might need to s


For Overwatch 2 players, you have options for similar team-based shooters. The formula gets twisted and turned in all sorts of ways for a fresh take, but you can find the core elements that will scratch that itch. No matter what your platform of choice is, there is something for


But in PvE, Roadhog is a real contender. He can deal respectable damage with his scrap gun’s alternate fire being able to one-shot most common enemies. Even more useful is his hook, which can steal snipers from their perch - and to round off his skillset, his Whole Hog ultimate makes crowd control a breeze by pushing back advancing groups and breaking down heav
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.


You may find yourself playing a game at one moment, but then feeling the need to find something else. That new interest might be something radically different, like going from Doom to Animal Crossing. It could be something similar, like finding a game that matches enough of the same qualities as Overwatch


Yet despite its defensive-focused design, the layout, which yields multiple paths and areas to flank, makes attacking more-than-doable for sharp teams. The fun Warcraft- esque themes throughout, coupled with the variance of areas and overall detail make Eichenwalde an optimal choice to revisit for Overwatch


So long as you can dodge and evade enemy fire and make strategic use of her recall ability, Tracer can deal consistently high DPS while enjoying the use of her quick-charging sticky bomb ultimate abil


This Zen-themed Control map is both a delight to gaze upon and to play through, with its variance of indoor and outdoor regions, its crafty level design, and its abundance of pits which can lead to some chaotic fights for the point. A number of heroes can thrive here, including the defensive Symmetra and Mei, while heroes with push abilities can certainly have their fun in the Sanctum portion of this

Fortunately, the hero gallery is still a breeze to navigate and has been updated with new portraits for each character. Actual models are used this time around instead of stylised drawings, and I’m still not entirely sure which of them I prefer. I’m sure they’ll grow on me.


Revealed at last year’s BlizzCon, Sojourn is the first and only new Hero currently known to join the Overwatch 2 Tier list 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 Blizzard left out a few enemy types seen in a concept art image shown during the video. Most notable were the humanoid, Omnic grunt-looking bots with wings and red armor and an enormous, gorilla-like bot hulking over the rest in the lineup. These enemies may not appear in the final build, but it’s interesting to wonder what they might


Overwatch is my favourite multiplayer shooter of all time, right up there with Halo 3. It’s also my favourite objective-based team game, which is why I have around 1,000 hours played in the first place. I used to regularly compete on teams with an average rank of high Diamond/low Masters, so I know what I’m doing. The thing is, Overwatch doesn’t reward you for that, which means every single game quickly becomes a massive pain in the a

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.
