On August 10, Overwatch 2 appeared on Steam, and the sixth season began. A new hero Illari, the PvP mode "Flashpoint", the battlefields of Suravas and New Junk City, 3 PvE missions were added.

However, the flashpoint happened on Steam, because extremely negative reviews of the game began to appear there. Only 30% are positive comments. Apparently, the fans got sick, and they decided to vent all their anger.

Let's take a closer look at the OW2 Season 6 new content.

The new support is a character with a solar rifle. Illari was born and grew up in a tribe of Inti warriors who were able to conquer solar energy. She turned out to be too powerful, which is why, after the initiation of the force, she remained the last of the Inti.

What else is interesting about this character:

ā€¢ Her rifle shoots single bunches of energy in combat mode, can also direct a healing beam.

ā€¢ Able to create a treatment station.

ā€¢ Makes jerks, pushing enemies in different directions, and can fly.

ā€¢ The ultimate ability is called "Captive Sun". Shoots a large clot of energy, which marks opponents who have fallen into the explosion zone.

PvE-missions

PvE tasks have been added, but there is one thing ā€” you should pay for them. You need $15 to access PvE. Gaming journalists noted that this is a abnormally high price for small content. Missions will be added gradually instead of a full-fledged campaign.

The duration of each task is approximately 15-25 minutes. You can go through them at different levels of difficulty. Cut scenes are simple and made on the engine. You can open the correspondence of the heroes and their notes.

The battles didn't seem too exciting to the journalists, as there are no new mechanics or enemies. Maybe the finale will please the players, but the rest of the gameplay boils down to the destruction of robots. Enemies have changed their behavior and become more aggressive due to the redesigned AI.

The journalists agreed that these tasks won't be able to bring back old fans and please those who want to explore the universe. Well-known facts are extolled here as new.

On the release day, online peak reached about 40,000 players on Steam, but then began to decline.

But there is also good news: Blizzard released an official Junker Queen statuette. Only 1000 pieces available for $1,000. The queen has a weight of 11 kg (about 24 pounds), dimensions 41x26x24 cm.
