This time, Blizzard is trying to remedy the situation by offering Battle for Olympus from January 5th to 19th. During this event, players can compete in free-for-all Deathmatches themed around the Greek gods. Several characters on the list dress up as deities and creatures from Greek mythology, such as Poseidon Ramattra, Zeus Queen of the Junkers, Minotaur Reinhardt, Cyclops Chopper, Hades Pharah, Medusa Fatale, and Hermes Lucio.
In addition to these skins, each character has a new ultimate ability that is much more powerful and effective than in the classic game modes. Their lines have also been modified, as has the Château Guillard map, to better suit the spirit of Olympus.
