The dawn of a new era for Blizzard Entertainment's free-to-play, decade-old PvP hero shooter Overwatch has now officially risen, with the studio dropping the "2" from its title, releasing five new hero characters at once, and kicking off a relaunch today that revamps several different aspects of the game.
First revealed last week, the Overwatch Season 1 update is now live, and kicks off the game's next chapter. With Season 1 — dubbed "Conquest" — the Reign of Talon begins, which is the first of the franchise's new year-long story arcs that develop over the course of six seasons. Vendetta defeating Doomfist and taking control of Talon serves as its starting point.
