An Overwatch: Classic event will take fans all the way back to the beginning


The rumors were true: Blizzard is running an Overwatch: Classic event in Overwatch 2. It will have a 6v6 format and gameplay will be very similar to how it was when the original game debuted in 2016.

That means Hanzo loses his Lunge jump but regains his dreaded Scatter Arrow, Bastion and Torbjorn are vastly different than they are now and Cassidy's Flashbang once again stun locks enemies for a moment. Symmetra reverts to being a support who can teleport allies almost anywhere on the map from the spawn room, while Mercy can will once again bring five dead teammates back to life. While assault maps are still available in the Arcade and custom games, you'll once again be dealing with the notorious choke points of the otherwise gorgeous Hanamura, Temple of Anubis and Volskaya Industries.
