All new Heroes in Overwatch 2 will be free

This and other changes are coming in Season 10

In today’s Developer Update, Aaron Keller, the director of Overwatch 2 announced couple of upcoming changes to the popular hero shooter.

The most important news shared today is most welcome – all new heroes will be free and no longer tied to the Battle Pass!

This means all players can play the same hero from day one.

At Blizzcon last year the next batch of heroes was announced. We already saw tank Mauga and in Season 10 new DPS hero Venture will be added to the line-up.

In other news shared today, the team at Blizzard have promised that future player feedback will be taken into account going forward, which will reflect in more frequent hero balance updates.

We can also expect some seasons to be completely focused on the map reworks, instead of introducing new heroes, modes or maps.

Are you excited for the new updates?

  1. Oh, after being first placed as Silver 1, in the next batch I got nice upgrade:

    This tier is in the range of what I was in OW1. Phew, I though I would need to climb through Silver 2-3-4-5 before getting into gold.

    Just started playing it’s really fun but how the fuck is there no fov slider? Every other new shooter can do it why not Overwatch?

  3. Got placed at Bronze 2 but I have got really really lucky with the matchmaking and now I am in Gold 4

    Never did I go on such win streaks.

  4. Platinum 5, yet in matches there are leavers and people without a clue how to play…

    I didn’t think too much about playing Overwatch 2 on my Switch Lite because I thought I needed to suscribe to Nintendo Online but actually you don’t have to now because it’s free to play. So I linked my account, got all my stuff in minutes and now I’m playing in my bed. That’s neat ! And it’s still very playable with the help of gyro and looking pretty nice on a small screen. That game will have some decent play time, for sure !
