It's time for another Hero to join the roster! Sigma seems to have gone a little overboard with his experiments and ended up in a sticky situation, as we find out in his origin story. The video is pretty weird and a little creepy, but effective, and he's apparently also joined the Talon guys and gal...

There's a huge new feature coming to Overwatch and it's already on the PTR! Jeff Kaplan goes into detail on the Workshop, where you can make your own custom game modes, but also "prototype your own Heroes".

There's a whole bunch of Overwatch news to cover, starting with the free week that's going on right now! Why exactly we're only finding out about it two days into the free week is the question, and why it was only tweeted on the EU account is another mystery. What is clear is that the free game time...

The page itself is looking great, with all the sk...

It seems we're heading to Cuba for the next Overwatch map and most probably for the next Archives event as well! Usually we see the Archives event show up around April 10th every year, and it focuses on a PvE mission that covers a specific period in Overwatch history. Last year we had Retribution, w...

It's time to *catchphrase*! Everyone's favorite DJ/speed demon is coming to real life once again as his statue will be available later this year.

This most recent PTR seems like it's going for most updates ever as we get more changes! This update is very Hero focused as Junkrat and Reaper get buffs, Symettra gets better at teleporting things and there's a whole lot of Hero-related bug fixes. We also get to select random victory poses and an o...
