The mid-season balancing patch for Overwatch 2 has been published, however, there are fewer hero balance adjustments than anticipated. Because the hotfix hero balancing patch to a select Overwatch 2 heroes in mid-December addressed the most common problems, this planned patch corrected more gameplay and visual flaws than usual.
In the early stages of Overwatch 2, new maps, heroes, and metals often appeared and vanished. The Battle for Olympus Team Deathmatch mode will debut with the January balancing patch, in which Overwatch players will compete as heroes with Greek-themed skins and enhanced skills to gain those skins, trademark voice lines, and fame. With the Battle for Olympus taking centre stage and other key hero balancing changes handled in a December update, this balance patch is light on hero changes but tackles several critical flaws hurting the Overwatch playing experience.
