Blizzard has revealed more information about the upcoming season of Overwatch 2, providing fans with a preview of what to expect from the next major update. The highly anticipated Season 5 is scheduled to launch on June 13, and it will introduce a brand new Battle Pass, as well as exciting events, rewards, and game modes. Additionally, Blizzard has announced that it will accompany the release of a significant update to Overwatch 2.
The new update promises to bring some changes to the heroes in the game. Junker Queen and Lifeweaver, for example, will receive major adjustments to spawn more balanced gameplay. Blizzard’s early patch notes indicate that Junker Queen’s healing ability is going to be reduced, while her Ultimate will take longer to charge. Blizzard explains that, “In the midseason patch, Junker Queen was given a series of buffs, and she really started to dominate. Her win rate popped up about 5%, and she went from being one of the lowest-picked tanks to one of the highest,” adding, “For most skill tiers, Queen and Reinhardt were the two most picked tanks for the latter half of the season. However, at Masters and above, Queen is far and away the most picked tank.” To even things out in Season 5, Junker Queen’s Commanding Shout will heal for 150 instead of 200.
Lifeweaver, on the other hand, will receive a number of buffs to encourage players to use him more. These include upgrades to his damage output and healing, as well as a heal on Life Grip, a slightly reduced hitbox, and some quality-of-life changes to Petal Platform. Once his popularity increases, Blizzard will use player data to create a more balanced character.
Blizzard has also confirmed plans to tweak Widowmaker and Hanzo, as well as update the crowd control abilities of Mei and Cassidy. It’s an exciting time for Overwatch 2 players, and the new changes hold the promise of delivering a more immersive and engaging gameplay experience.
