Ranking Blizzard’s Proposed Overwatch 2 Collabs By How Much I Do Or Don't Want Them
29.7.2025
Overwatch 2 loves a collaboration. Blizzard has spent more time dressing up its heroes like characters from other worlds than nurturing its own lore, and that means fans can expect more themed skins in the future. If there’s one thing Overwatch fans can count on, it’s that Blizzard will find a...
This Pride Month, Overwatch 2 Made Good On A Years-Old Promise
30.6.2025
I’ve been playing Overwatch since 2019.

22.5.2025
Way back in 2019, Blizzard confirmed that Soldier: 76, Overwatch’s grumpy grandpa, is a member of the queer community. The titular organization’s ex-commander, whose real name is Jack Morrison, is gay and was involved with a man named Vincent many years before the events of the game. This...
Overwatch 2’s Street Fighter Skins Are A Knockout
19.5.2025
After announcing the crossover event last week, Blizzard has finally unveiled every skin for its new Overwatch 2 x Street Fighter 6 collaboration. Originally, we only saw most of these new costumes in an animated trailer that didn’t really give us a sense of what they would look like in-game,...
Overwatch 2’s Street Fighter Collaboration Would Be Cool If The Game Wasn’t Becoming Fortnite
9.5.2025
I love Overwatch 2. I love Street Fighter. Put the two of them together for a skin collaboration, and that should, in theory, speak to me directly. But I don’t know, I feel like I’m becoming desensitized to all the collaborations Blizzard has been shoving into its hero shooter, even when they...
Someone Made Marvel Rivals In Overwatch 2, And It Kinda Rules
1.5.2025
If you ever needed proof that all things feed into one another, look no further than somebody making Marvel Rivals kits in Overwatch 2. NetEase’s hero shooter has long been compared to Blizzard’s, with several of its heroes being almost exact copies of characters Overwatch popularized. But despite...
Overwatch 2: The Best Perk Choices For Support Heroes
17.4.2025
As exciting as the return of Loot Boxes is, the biggest change for Overwatch 2 is season 15’s perk system. Whether they’re small tweaks for healing or new mobility options, healers need to choose the right upgrades. To make that a bit easier, we’ve narrowed down the best perk choices for each...

Overwatch 2’s Amazing Annual April Fools’ Day Mode Is Just As Incredible This Year
1.4.2025
Most video game companies use April Fools’ Day to make a social media post about something improbable, like a dating sim spin-off or a product they will never actually put out. Overwatch 2 goes the extra mile and releases an entire game mode that cranks every one of its heroes up to their most...
Overwatch 2: The Best Perk Choices For Tank Heroes
21.3.2025
Overwatch 2 introduced some big changes last in February, 2025. The all new Perk system is perhaps the most significant. It offers each hero two pairs of unique buffs to choose between. Some provide incremental buffs while others cover specific hero weaknesses or even adjust how you want to play...
The Girls Are Girling In Overwatch 2’s Second K-Pop Crossover
18.3.2025
Overwatch 2 has been swimming in collaboration skins over the past few years, and the crossover the hero shooter did with K-Pop group Le Sserafim remains one of its most popular. It’s so well-liked, in fact, that Blizzard is working with the pop act again for another set of skins for a (mostly)...
Overwatch 2 Is Running Out Of Chances, So I’m Glad It’s Finally Taking Some Real Swings
13.2.2025
I never thought I’d become a lapsed Overwatch 2 player, but that’s what I’ve been lately. I barely touched season 14, and that lack of interest was the culmination of years of stagnation and broken promises finally pushing me away. Yeah, Marvel Rivals also showed up and took my time, but even...

Overwatch 2’s New Tank Hero Looks Like An Absolute Menace
22.11.2024
Overwatch 2’s newest tank hero, Hazard, is officially launching next month when the shooter’s 14th season starts, but you can take him for a spin from now until November 25. Just before the test period began, Blizzard released the first footage of Hazard in action and a breakdown of the Scottish...
Overwatch Players, Y’all Lived Like This In 2016?
13.11.2024
I started playing Overwatch in 2019. By the time I was pushing payloads and getting Play of the Game with a well-placed Tactical Visor, a lot of the old hero kits and team compositions that were infamous when the hero shooter launched in 2016 were more like cautionary tales for relative newbies....
Overwatch 2 Reworked Sombra Again, And I Hate It
15.10.2024
My patience with Overwatch 2 is wearing thin, and it’s only getting thinner as the hero shooter enters its 13th season today, October 15. The Halloween-centric season is full of recolors of old skins and a lot of the cosmetic favoritism that has plagued the game in the past year. But it also has...
Overwatch 2 Hits Its Second Anniversary With Little To Show For It
4.10.2024
I finished Overwatch 2’s season 12 battle pass last night. There are only 11 days left in this season and it’s easily the longest it’s taken me to work my way through the hero shooter’s daily challenges to unlock all the skins, emotes, and voice lines Blizzard offered in these past nine weeks. As...
Hands-On: Marvel Rivals Does Right By Captain America And Winter Soldier
22.8.2024
I’ve enjoyed every game I’ve played in NetEase’s Marvel Rivals. The comic book take on the hero shooter genre is a lot of fun, even if it takes some blatant inspiration from Overwatch. It feels less sanded down and polished than its obvious competitor, but that opens it up to chaos and fun plays...
