Zarya can fully charge her Particle Cannon to gain intense energy, firing a short-range linear beam to devastate enemies and their health, including those who can deflect. Zarya is a brutal tank who can eliminate foes easily thanks to a great mix of defensive and offensive play, even with recent nerfs to her Projected Barriers, which will see longer cooldowns of her bubbles to make her more vulnerable in intensive fig


COD is one of the few game series left that get away with an annual release schedule. Every fall like clockwork a new COD comes out and sells like hotcakes.

This bizarre map doesn't have a ton going for it outside of the sort of self-congratulatory Blizzard themes that permeate the area. Once you've gotten past the amusing StarCraft nods and the subtle, cheeky references to The Lost Vikings , there's really not much to love about this st


So what would an Overwatch 2 even look like? Perhaps the biggest change to the game could be one that fans have been requesting since day one: the addition of a story mode. The big rumor is that instead of a traditional story mode, Blizzard is planning on turning their annual PVE modes into a more permanent fixt


This map is considered a classic for a reason—it's both thematically neat and well-crafted in its overall level design. This Hybrid map possesses all sorts of nooks and crannies for DPS-minded players to take advantage


After the fancy new animated trailer was shown off at Blizzcon, Kaplan started listing off all the goodies players would get with Overwatch 2 . Echo and Sojourn, along with possibly four more unannounced heroes would join the roster, new maps based in Toronto, Gothenburg, Monte Carlo, and Rio De Janeiro would be available, and there would be a new game mode called Push.

Iterative releases are something that fans of sports games are more accustomed to. Every year a new NBA, Madden , NHL, MLB or WWE game is released and they're rarely significant departures from the previous installment. These games are usually expected to release annually, so they typically feature nothing more than roster updates with maybe the occasional new mode or gameplay tweak. Yet, despite being essentially the same game – or in some cases being much worse than the game that came before – they'll still cost you the price of a triple-A rele

Many players would have gladly paid $20 or $30 to play through a cinematic adventure with Tracer and company, but instead, we're getting a new game that will likely be priced at the same level as other triple-A releases. This means if you want to see the journey of Overwatch's revival you're going to have to pony up $60, and that doesn't feel justifia


Combined with smooth and incredible gameplay, a cheery art style, and a bevy of free content that regularly includes new heroes, maps, and events every month, Overwatch has overshadowed Team Fortress 2 as the premier hero shooter. That's the reason why a lot of developers are still desperately trying to make their own Overwatch to this

To truly make Overwatch 2 shine through as a true, distinct sequel, it would be nice to see an entire batch of new recruits to the Overwatch and/or Blackwatch squad. Perhaps we could at least kick things off with a couple of heroes that cover each of the 3 major categories - DPS, tank, and supp
