Blizzard continues to prioritize community engagement, ensuring that player feedback shapes the future development and updates of Overwatch 2.

Blizzard Entertainment is gearing up for significant updates to Overwatch 2 in 2025, focusing on competitive gameplay enhancements and the introduction of new weapon variants.

Overwatch 2 operates on a seasonal content model, consistently delivering updates, hero balance changes, and new cosmetics.

Blizzard plans to unveil more competitive updates in the coming weeks, although no new hero has been confirmed for Season 15 yet.

Viewers can earn exclusive skins, including Lucio's Cyber DJ and Baptiste's Flirty Flare, by watching the livestream event on Twitch or YouTube.

The upcoming event will delve into changes in PvP gameplay, unveil new heroes and maps, and highlight additional content slated for February and beyond.

Scheduled for February 13, 2025, at 12 PM CT, the event promises to be a pivotal moment for the game's community.

Among the updates, a new type of weapon variant will replace the vaulted Jade variants, potentially featuring a space theme to offer players innovative strategies.

Season 14 will introduce a new hero named Hazard, reflecting Blizzard's commitment to integrating community feedback into gameplay adjustments.

In response to player feedback, the Clash mode will be removed from Competitive play in Season 15, although it will remain available in Quick Play and unranked modes.

Game director Aaron Keller acknowledged that the Champion rank has been less attainable than expected, prompting adjustments in Season 15 to enhance accessibility.

Keller also confirmed that the competitive mode will maintain its yearly cycle, ensuring that both new and returning players can effectively rank up.
