The next Overwatch 2 Hero will receive a short testing period for those who want to try it out before release, just like Blizzard did with Tank Hero mountain before its start. Venture, a non-binary, the probing damage hero, is set to join the roster in Season 10 (which begins April 16), but Blizzard is giving fans a few days to try it out before then. This will undoubtedly make the historically long damage wait times even longer, but that’s the price we damage players have to pay for playing the most popular role.
Ventures The testing phase begins on Thursday, March 28th and runs over the weekend until Sunday, March 31st. The announcement also came with a new trailer showcasing all of her abilities. Their drill-based kit focuses on their Burrow movement ability, which allows Venture to burrow beneath the action, making them invulnerable and able to move around the map. It’s not too dissimilar to the way the characters in it play Splatoon Traverse the environment by swimming through the ink they spray on the ground. Her ultimate ability, Tectonic Shock, is also shown in the trailer, which creates a shockwave similar to Reinhardt’s Earthsplitter, although we don’t see exactly how this affects other enemies aside from dealing damage. It may not have the same stun effect as Reinhardt’s ultimate ability.
While Venture is the star of the show, the trailer also seems to hint at a new map similar to the original Overwatchis the Temple of Anubis, which was not part of the sequel’s typical map rotation, as it limits the two-point Conquest modes to the arcade and custom games. The Overwatch 2 The team has begun creating new maps with old aesthetics and settings reminiscent of these 2CP locations, such as the map for Hanaoka Clash mode, scheduled to appear in Season 11. It looks like the popular Temple of Anubis card might be getting a homage at some point. So.
Check out the trailer below:
Venture will be the first Overwatch 2 The hero will be available without purchasing the season’s Battle Pass starting April 16 after Blizzard announced the new heroes would be free for all players go forward. This addresses one of the biggest criticisms of the sequel following its October 2022 release, at a time when the game needs some good news after what Blizzard sounds like it supposedly is Cancellation of planned story missions That was a pillar of the announcement of the sequel.
