You'll be able to play her for a bit during a trial weekend in Season 15. Blizzard is also teasing a new character for Season 18 named Aqua, appropriately named for his water-based abilities.

The second upgrade offers a more substantial playstyle shift designed to help turn the tides of battle. Torbjorn can choose between a stronger level 3 turret or the ability to mount it on a wall, for example. So a lot there.

didn't do enough to shake things up. That game, for me, when we got Overwatch 2, it felt like too much of the same. I know they brought the player count down to 5v5 instead of 6v6. I needed some more than that, right? They added the new modes, they added some new maps, but I think...

For me as a player, and I think for a lot of players, people were looking for something more substantial, and over time, they canceled some of the content that they had promised for Overwatch 2, some of the single-player stuff that we were looking forward to. So I think you need things like this to shake it up. I'm with you as far as, is this new mode going to hit? That sounds like a big swing.

It reminds me of when Apex added Apex Arenas as a mode, and I liked Arenas a lot, but they added it, and maybe a year or two later, they took it out, which saddened me, but... I think you need swings like that. You gotta figure out if you can get something like this to stick. Because then if it does, you just opened up a whole new revenue model, possibly.

Oh man, let me tell you. I was in the group chat. Hold on. I'm not gonna read any of their texts because I don't have their permission. But I was in the group chat and the vibe was... The vibe was mainly like, damn, why are you doing this now? You should have done this a while ago. It seems like they're on the idea of pro these changes, but it does feel a little too late.
