While some of the challenges can be completed through normal play, some others require specific playstyles and roles that can pigeonhole you. For instance, one challenge requires you to deal damage with weapons as a support hero, but, on top of the low number of support heroes in the game, only certain choices even have offensive options that make completing the task via

Widowmaker has arguably the most tragic backstory out of all the heroes . Formerly the wife of an Overwatch agent, Amélie Lacroix cared only for her husband and ballet. That is until she was kidnapped by Talon and essentially turned into a sleeper agent through reconditioning, killing her husband in the proc

So, if you were dying to find out what the Game of the Year is to someone who avoided all the obvious games of the year, then you’re in luck. Here are my favourite games I played in between trying to complete Outer Wilds and starting my seventh Dragon Age: Origins playthro

As the highly-anticipated sequel to Blizzard’s hit hero shooter, Overwatch 2 put many fans on the edge of their seats. As trailers were released, many noted the striking similarities between it and the original, but were assured that there would be several balance changes and new heroes added to give a breath of fresh air to the g

Because you can’t have one without the other, Junkrat and Roadhog are loved by fans for their abilities and completely bonkers attitudes. Their heist to steal Junkertown’s cache of treasure is one of the better maps in Overwatch and would be exciting to play out in a spin-off that could see our crime duo becoming Junker Queen’s top enem

From the get-go, Overwatch 2 confused and frustrated fans and reviewers alike. Our Lead Features editor, Jade King, attempted to get an early look at the game, but was met only with menus to look at , as matches were nearly impossible to find until the embargo lifted. Unfortunately, her experience with the game once she could find matches was far from stellar. “I am beginning to fall out of love with overwatch 2 maps 2,” Jade wr

The critics are justified – queer representation in a game as globally recognised as Overwatch 2 shouldn’t become a political scapegoat as its publisher fails to cover up its own corruption. The conspiracy that characters in this game are assigned queer identities out of desperation as opposed to excellent writing and realistic dynamics isn’t that far-fetched. We can’t trust Blizzard enough to believe that it was always the plan to reveal Soldier 76, Tracer, or Pharah as queer, even though it might be true. It doesn’t deserve that trust anymore, but this shouldn’t negate what personal value we assign to characters who are now canon in their identities, especially after years of projecting ourselves onto them with stories and ideas that outgrow what the game is capable of. Feeling pride in Pharah’s reveal as a lesbian is valid, I just wish it wasn’t sullied.

The multiplayer FPS Overwatch 2 is filled with a massive roster of heroes to play from. With each hero, there are unique attacks, abilities, and ultimates that make for a lot of different fights. A specific hero is better suited to certain situations and, as a result, some characters act as a counter to other charact

Upon release, many noted a distinct change of pace in the game, but some still preferred the original. The debate surrounding the necessity of a new title continues to rage on, but the existing characters, and favorites who debuted in Overwatch 2, like Kiriko, are keeping us engaged. despite the divisive new Battle Pass and monetization opti

However, with Lifeweaver’s small HP pool, D.va is able to utilise her missiles to quickly secure the kill , making it very difficult for the support to back out of a situation where a D.va decides to try and get the elimination on t

While it probably flew under most radars in favour of Sonic Frontiers , Sonic Origins unexpectedly came along and showed the older games the most love they’ve seen since the release of Mania. While this compilation title should have gone a lot further, it still packages the best versions of four classic Sonic games, tying them together with adorable animated shorts. It may be a bit too simple, and it had some ridiculous, inexcusable DLC, but it’s the new best way to play older Sonic games. Hopefully, the rest of the series will be given the same attention s

When Odessa “Dez” Stone defeated Mason Howl, the reigning Junker King, in the Reckoning, she became the new ruler of Junkertown. As a new hero introduced in Overwatch 2, Junker Queen’s story is still relatively new to us and worth exploring. With great power comes great responsibility, and ruling over a place like Junkertown requires diplomacy, knowledge, and total ch

One negative with playing Ana against Lifeweaver is that if an enemy has been slept and your team is about to secure a kill on them, a Lifeweaver could easily use Life Grip to bring them to safety . This makes for an interesting game where both Ana and Lifeweaver work well against each other, countering the other in some way, creating a fun, challenging match that tests your skill as either charac
