Fans awaiting news for the competitive hero shooter Overwatch 2 finally received updates regarding an upcoming beta this April, which promises new maps and access to the new damage hero, Sojourn. It has been almost two years since the original Overwatch game received any substantial content with the addition of the 32nd hero, Echo. Development for Overwatch 2 has had several issues since it was first announced at Blizzcon in 2019.

Certain seasonal events offered different game modes and a few PVE missions that were only playable during certain times of the year.

News has been incredibly scarce since Overwatch 2's announcement, but today's developer update gave fans a lot to look forward to when the beta arrives this April.
