Overwatch is about to have its biggest year yet, with the addition of 10 new heroes in 2026. Five of those heroes will arrive all at once on Feb. 10, with the launch of season 1, an unprecedented content update that outdoes the launch of Overwatch 2 back in 2022. (And yes, the name of the game is now just Overwatch; Blizzard is dropping the 2 from its title as it plans for the next decade of its hero-based PvP shooter.)


This is exciting news for Overwatch fans! The addition of so many new heroes at once will definitely shake things up and keep the game fresh. Looking forward to seeing how they fit into the gameplay!
