More health, more healing and bigger bullets

by Michael McWhertor

Overwatch 2's next season will introduce a major overhaul for at least one hero, but every hero in Blizzard's team-based shooter will feel different starting with the new season. The developer is set to make "huge changes to the fundamentals of Overwatch 2 gameplay" with Season 9, known as Champions.

At the most basic level, expect every hero in Overwatch 2's roster to have more health and their bullets, missiles, and arrows to be bigger. As previously teased by game director Aaron Keller, all heroes will have some passive self-healing.
