From now through January 19, we’re introducing an all-new game mode: Battle for Olympus. In this limited time free-for-all deathmatch, heroes go head-to-head, wielding the power of Greek gods, goddesses, and creatures. Battle for Olympus will feature seven heroes that get special powers when they activate their divine ultimates that stack new effects on top of the ability. Alongside their divine ultimates, heroes have unique interactions with one another as they ascend from mortal to myth in Battle for Olympus. Here’s the lineup of each team as well as their special powers:
Poseidon Ramattra Divine Annihilation
Zeus Junker Queen Divine Rampage
Minotaur Reinhardt Divine Earthshatter
Cyclopes Roadhog Divine Whole Hog
Hades Pharah Divine Rocket Barrage
Medusa Widowmaker Divine Infra-Sight
Hermes Lucio Divine Sound Barrier
