A smaller team and more concentrated strategic focus for each player in Overwatch 2 is definitely a good thing, but it also presents a higher skill ceiling for us to meet if we want to perform well and not let people down. I am a decent DPS player, but now I can hang with the best when it comes to heroes like Moira, Lucio, or Mercy. So I stick with them, staying in my lane instead of risking old favourites that might get people moaning at me as I fail to do things correctly. This shouldn’t be a problem, and the majority of it is definitely on me, but Overwatch 2 has brought back a lingering multiplayer anxiety I thought I had conquered.

Ultimately players will still find themselves in the rank they belong in eventually. This doesn’t make climbing easier or harder in the long run, it’s just a psychological trick. We’ll have to see how the playerbase responds to it throughout the first season, but my gut says most people are like me and would prefer transparency, no matter how marsh that reality might

One game mode has a bunch of Meis having a snowball fight; it's fun, but it can be rather repetitive. The Yeti mode is a bit more interesting, with one player alone as an overpowered Winston fighting the enemy team. Some maps also get snow on them, which adds to the theme of Christmas as w

Based on the Lunar New Year events that happen in several Asian countries, you have spectacular skins to make your characters look even better, and you also have Capture the Flag, a classic mode in many games. Lunar New Year happens around January or Febru

To cap off the week, players don't seem too happy with the new maps that came along with Overwatch 2, especially those for the Push mode. Many have complained that the maps are too big for the mode , resulting in players having to walk long distances to make it back to the action after getting kil

Blizzard revealed a new Tank class Hero for Overwatch 2 called Ramattra . Giving off Indian God vibes – thanks to the slight resemblance to Shiva and with 'Ram' in his name – his backstory revealed a close relationship with Zenyatta and the Omnic people. He comes with two different forms that can be changed on the fly – the offensive Nemesis form which gives him access to powerful punches, and the defensive Omnic form that gives him a barrier to protect his team. He’ll join the roster on Decembe

"I made a support ticket with [Blizzard] and told them I was missing my [Widowmaker] Noire skin with proof of preorder and old pics," said one player on Reddit. "All they said was they’re working on it and to check back later. One month later, still missing." It looks like Blizzard still hasn't figured out this is

While we're all enjoying playing Overwatch 2, it seems Blizzard is still struggling with certain aspects of the game, balance primarily. Sometimes it's a particular Hero, other times it's a map, and on some occasions, it's an entire game mode. When it's not balancing issues, it's the in-game store, which either pushes you to spend real money, or doesn't give you cosmetics you've owned since 2016. The cherry on top, however, is a legal matter between Activision-Blizzard and the US Department of Just

Being a tank is scary. You need to lead the way, make the decisions, and be the driving force for your team that encourages them to push forward and claim victory. I’ve written about the role in Final Fantasy 14 and how it will never be for me, but Overwatch was an exception.

For years, I was a D.Va main. A stylish gamer girl in an energy drink-fueled mech that could launch into enemies and blow them to pieces with an explosive ultimate attack. I have 21 of her 25 available skins, and used to pick her almost immediately if I wasn’t expected to fill a healer role because my team was useless. I am not a Lucio main by choice, it is a burden I was given out of obligation, and one I take on more often than not now playing tanks is kinda scary. A single tank means you must lead the entire team, defending DPS and support alike as they move across the map and push the objective.
