2023 is an exciting time for Overwatch 2, as revealed by Blizzard Entertainment in their latest roadmap for the game. The free-to-play co-op shooter will receive a mix of new characters, story missions, as well as reworks, as part of the studio's ongoing support for the game.
As usual, Blizzard wasn't descriptive with its latest reveal. Instead, the studio dropped an image that offered a glimpse of the incoming new content to Overwatch 2.
The characters, while yet unnamed, promise to bring a fresh dynamic to the gameplay with their unique abilities and roles.
Based on the available information, Overwatch Season 5 will have a medieval-fantasy setting, highlighted by the limited-time event, Questmatch. Season 5 will also bring back the popular Summer Games, a new 5v5 mini Competitive season, the Creator Workshop, and more content as part of the game's one-year anniversary celebration. As for Season 6, this is when the new Support Hero will be added to the game alongside what appears to be either a new mode or event, Flashpoint, as well as a firing range. Finally, for Season 7, Blizzard is planning to add an Omnic Tank hero and a rework for Roadhog and Sombra, among other things.
