Blizzard recently held its BlizzConline event, during which the company revealed a slew of new information on its upcoming games , including Overwatch 2 . While no release date or time frame was announced, the almost forty-minute video unveiled many new details about the highly anticipated hero shooter. Some exciting announcements included two new map reveals, a look at the new enemy designs, and new passive role attribu
I love this screen. It’s slick, colourful, and showcases how good I am at certain characters. I will say that I am not a Lucio main by choice, but largely because my team would be ruined without me healing their asses on a constant basis. All the usual customisation options for analysing your stats can be found here alongside statistics and challenges. It’s a shame that a lot of tasks have carried over from the first game instead of starting afresh, meaning your main source of progression this time around is the battle pass and not much else. Speaking of!
In the absence of playing any actual games in Overwatch 2 Hero Abilities 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.
Following the successful takedown of the Omnic forces, Adawe chose to promote Morrison to the strike-commander position over Reyes, despite Reyes being the one who ultimately led Overwatch in disabling the Omnic base. A period of extended peace swept the world, and Overwatch helped usher in an era of space exploration, medical research, innovation, and discov
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
The most exciting part of Sojourn is definitely the rare bits and pieces of gameplay that players were able to see during Blizzard's twenty-minute Overwatch 2 clip at BlizzConline 2021 . In this clip, a lot of new features and changes were teased for the upcoming game, but most importantly, the new maps, PvE missions, and Sojourn made an appearance as w
Overwatch 2 is a very iterative sequel, and thus many of its menus will feel very familiar to those who spent time with its predecessor. Because of this stylistic choice I’m going to work through the highlights and point out all of their biggest draws and flaws before deciding on an overall score for the entire package. Yes, some serious science has gone into this idea.
Overcoming the Omnic Crisis turned Overwatch into a world peacekeeping force, but soon, even the group fell to corruption. A series of investigations uncovered many skeletons in Overwatch’s closet, and the group disbanded. But with rising terrorist attacks from Talon and increasing tensions between Omnics and humans, several agents got back together and reformed Overwa
Joanna Dark is a classic spy action hero who is fitted with all the necessary skills, determination, and equipment to save the world over and over again. Along with the black and blue suit, Dark rocks short but flaming red hair and a pair of pistols strapped to her
During Blizzcon of 2019, the Overwatch 2 announcement trailer features a clip of Paris being attacked by Null Sector's forces. This attack is presumably the beginning of the story of Overwatch 2, where the heroes once more come together to defend the world from the forces of Talon and Null Sect
Based on the lack of Ult charge and Sojourn’s blue glow in this clip, this looks to be Sojourn’s Ultimate ability for this build of Overwatch 2. It looks very powerful but also super reliant on good aim and tim
Despite locking certain modes away until new players have earned them, actually selecting what you want to play and jumping into a game is seamless. Much like the title screen, not much here has changed when compared to the first entry. Things are simple and easy to read, while updating character designs have been thrown onto each icon and pop with real visual flair. With any luck, PvE will be an option on this menu in just a few short months.
That being said, the two Bloodrayne games did get fairly recent remasters that can entice both old and new players to check this series out. The games might not be mind-blowing by any stretch of the imagination but serve as fairly competent action-adventure titles for players who want to check out a simple, fun, and gory ti
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.
