Overwatch 2 had been the undisputed hero shooter champ for years, but that all changed when Marvel Rivals borrowed some of its best ideas and slapped some of pop culture's most famous faces on top. Now, in what I'd call slyly catty remarks, developer Blizzard Entertainment says it's committed to making sure Overwatch 2 is the "best competitive team-based hero shooter" around.
That comes courtesy of a new Overwatch 2 Spotlight blog, where the developers broke down some pretty drastic changes to the game, including upgradeable perks, a new third-person-centric mode, the return of loot boxes, a map voting feature, and much more. Season 15 and Season 16 are easily bringing in more new and exciting features than Overwatch 2's seen since its launch - finally, arguably justifying the '2' at the end of its name - but Blizzard says it's just staying competitive.
