Overwatch 2: Everything We Know About Sojourn
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!
Which begs the question, if everything is going to be added into the first game, why do we even need a sequel? From the sound of things, it seems like Overwatch 2 should have been DLC instead of a separate full-price rele
Though Hanzo’s sniping may be outdone by Widowmaker’s hitscan rifle, his ability to play mid-range makes him a better pick for offensive modes and maps lacking long sight lines, such as the best map, King’s
Sojourn's weapon is a railgun, which has two different firing functions. It can either be used as an automatic weapon to fire quickly, or the player can choose to fire powerful projectile shots that most likely do increasing amounts of damage depending on how much they're charged. This means that Sojourn is likely to be a DPS hitscan and projectile hybrid h
Toronto is also unique as a map because it introduces a brand-new game mode known as Push. It involves the team escorting a robot across the map, and the winning team is the one who manages to escort it to the opposition's s
As already mentioned, Sojourn has been a part of the Overwatch franchise and lore for a very long time. No other hero has been teased as much as she has been, ever since the conception of the game. Given how early on the team knew they wanted to have her as a playable hero in the game, it's only natural there's so much information and footage available of
Iterative releases are something that fans of sports games are more accustomed to. Every year a new NBA, Madden , NHL, MLB or WWE game is released and they're rarely significant departures from the previous installment. These games are usually expected to release annually, so they typically feature nothing more than roster updates with maybe the occasional new mode or gameplay tweak. Yet, despite being essentially the same game – or in some cases being much worse than the game that came before – they'll still cost you the price of a triple-A rele
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 overwatch2Base.com 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.
As you can see, the only thing that won't be patched into the first Overwatch is the story missions. Every multiplayer aspect of Overwatch 2 will be in vanilla Overwatch. For most players the online component is the only reason they play the game, so if everything is coming to the title they already own, then what value does the sequel have? If anything, Overwatch 2 sounds less like a fully-realized follow-up, and more like an iterative release in the ser
Given the long development time for Sojourn, it's likely the team behind Overwatch knew years before that she would be added to the second version of the game, or at least fairly later on with a significant update that would overhaul Overwa
One of the most anticipated features has to be Sojourn, a brand-new hero coming to Overwatch 2. She's extremely unique when it comes to her weapon and combat style, and since fans have seen her in several comics and Archives missions, it's only natural that she's the first new hero to be announced for Blizzard's upcoming sequel. Here's what's known about Sojourn so far, as of May 2
I can tell you firsthand why this is a huge blunder from Blizzard. I used to play a lot of Overwatch. It became a nightly ritual to log on, meet up with the large group of friends who gathered online to play, and run through multiple rounds of competitive matches. One of the reasons why we all kept playing was because the game felt like it was always changing. We'd get a new character like Sombra or Orisa. Or a new map would be added to the rotation. Or we'd get a big seasonal event that would add in a new game mode and a bunch of unlockable skins. It felt like a game that kept giving and giving more so than any other game I'd played at the t
Part of me is curious to see where new modes and additions will appear when the first big seasonal update rolls around, or if Blizzard has something more experimental planned for a hero shooter that is relatively by-the-numbers right now. But when it comes to the user interface experience, I gotta give this thing top marks.
