A new first-person shooter Game called Overwatch 2 is being created and released by Blizzard Entertainment. The 2016 hero shooter Overwatch’s sequel aims to introduce permanent cooperative modes while maintaining a shared environment for player-versus-player (PvP) games. A significant alteration in PvP was the reduction of team numbers from six to five, which necessitated the reworking of some characters. On October 4, 2022, Overwatch 2 will be made available for free-to-play in early access on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Complete cross-platform play will be available.

In Overwatch 2 a player can Choose from 35 fantastic heroes in our roster, then join your teammates for thrilling 5v5 action on 22 global maps in 6 different game modes. There is a hero for everyone, whether your style is to take the initiative, ambush adversaries, or support your allies.
