However with the arrival of Overwatch 2 and its free-to-play construction, the brand new heroes now reside throughout the debuting, (and massively divisive), battle cross system. By shifting the brand new heroes to Tier 45, it’s hoped that gamers will unlock the characters sooner, although it’s, admittedly, nonetheless a reasonably meaty grind to get there.
