Overwatch 2 Release Date
Overwatch is different from Diablo IV in the sense that it is a team-based multiplayer FPS game but it is also developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. Overwatch is known as a "Hero Shooter" game where the players are assigned into two teams of six. Each player can select from a large roster of characters who are known as "heroes" and all these heroes have different, unique abilities. The upcoming Overwatch 2 is yet to have a release date but surely it's not going to be in the year 2021. Here is some information about this title:
- Keep Your Collections
- Your accomplishments and loot collections will be carried forward to Overwatch 2. That means you’ll keep your skins, player icons, sprays, emotes, and more!
- New Maps and Heroes
- Current Overwatch players will battle side-by-side with Overwatch 2 players in PvP multiplayer; they’ll also be able to play Overwatch 2 heroes and maps.

Changes and updates on Diablo 4
- Legendary Items
- The developers have paid attention to the feedback from players and are trying to avoid any such situation where legendary items will impact the power level of the character too much.
- To implement this, more of the player's power will be put back into the character for making build choices more relevant.
- New Skill System
- There is going to be a lot of major changes to skills and talents.
- Same as before, due to the community feedback the talent system is going to need more depth.
- Skills were labelled too simple as they created issues where a player would have no meaningful reason to spend their skill points.
