Heroes never die 🎮 🏆🛡
After many years of playing Overwatch, the sequel to the competitive first-person hero shooter is finally upon us. Well, kind of.
Overwatch 2 was just released in early access form on October 4th. The game is transitioning to a free-to-play model, which means anybody on PlayStation/Xbox/PC/Switch will be able to play the game at no cost.
There is much controversy surrounding Overwatch as to whether or now 2 is a true sequel. As Blizzard once claimed, they are changing what the meaning of a sequel is with Overwatch 2.
The original Overwatch ceases to exist and will transform into a slightly altered Overwatch 2. There will be some new characters, maps, and modes. Most of the new content lies in tweaks to certain characters. The main change is going from 6v6 to a less chaotic 5v5. This means there will only be one tank on each team. That may sound like a tiny change, but it changes how the game plays entirely.
To me, it seems like Overwatch 2 is turning into a game more geared toward players like myself. I enjoy playing as a team, but I'm rarely on the mic and spend a lot of my moments trying to solo a team on a flank with heroes such as Reaper or Tracer.
If you're curious to know every change made to the characters and classes, then check out this article or look up a video on YouTube about it. Plenty of people have already covered the changes in detail since there has been a beta for PC players for the last several months.
In today's video, you will get to watch one of my first games of Overwatch 2. I will be comparing it to the original Overwatch game, which is still fresh in my mind as I was just playing it last weekend. I think this game is going to resurface as one of the most popular multiplayer titles. Going free very well may allow a large number of new gamers to fall in love with what Overwatch has to offer.
Will you be playing Overwatch 2? Leave a comment and let me know.
I have well over 100 hours with the original Overwatch and I see myself playing Overwatch 2 for many more years. There is a ton of content slated for future release and they even have huge plans for a PvE mode to compliment the competitive PvP.
Be sure to follow me for more updates on Overwatch 2 and tons of other gaming topics.
Thanks for watching!

After all the problems with the servers 😅, I was finally able to play yesterday. It feels very fun and most importantly, very alive, you don't last even 1 minute looking for a game and I think that's the best thing. I see a lot of illusion from people in general for OW2, I hope they do things right and manage to redeem themselves, I dedicated hundreds of hours to the first game.
Yesterday was my first full day getting to play too. I have been having so much fun though, the game is better than ever.
After a while after the first Overwatch release, I got to play it for a while on a family member's computer, the game was too cool and fun, I could not believe what I was playing, now I find out that there is a second installment, it really looks very interesting.
The skills of the characters are extremely good and the fantasy that there is instead to PVP are pretty good, good video brother, see it gave me a lot of nostalgia.
It’s one of the best FPS games available.
Every character feels distinctly different and it always feels so fun to play.
Haha damn that game looks like a lot of fun! The characters look cool and the gameplay looks sweet. I can't figure out your character in the first match (I stopped after that one, not sure if you played more, ran out of time) when it kept dropping the guns to reload or get new ones? Lol. That was weird.
The maps look awesome though!
So obnoxious with the stupid microtransactions and shit. Free to play but then you get charged for all kinds of stuff. Kiss my ass with that!
Man, I love Overwatch so much. I was using Reaper in the gameplay and yea his reload animation is pretty weird. He does indeed just drop them and new guns magically appear. Overwatch doesn't push itself to be realistic, that's for sure. I think that's okay though.
Lucky for me, I have so many cosmetic items that transferred from the old game that I won't need to purchase anything new. It does kind of suck to never be unlocking new stuff though unless you want to pay for the battle pass.
I was really excited to watch Overwatch 2 on your channel, but there's a bug with the video, man. People can't watch the video. I think you shared it as private 😂.
Should be working now. It hadn't finished encoding when I fell asleep & I slept in this morning and didn't wake up in time to switch it to public. Thanks for the heads up bro.
You'r welcome man. It's working now. This game looks fun. I'm not going to play because my poor laptop can't handle it but it will be good to watch it from you.
I am excited to see new characters developed in the new version, I think this version will bring many beginners fans, it's a nice experience
So far there are 3 new characters, all of which are female. Junker Queen is a tank, Soujourn is DPS, and Kiriko is the support character.
I loved playing 6 vs 6 it's more chaotic. The nice thing about Overwatch is that you can play and try it for free on PlayStation or XBOX too! That's great!
5v5 can still be pretty wild. It's the nature of Overwatch, every character has unlimited ammo and crazy abilities.
Dang! She got some ABS!! 😜💪😉
why those skins so expensive! maybe they have gold flakes in em..
OH YEA.. some Reaper action!
JUNKRAT?? REALLY???
She’s a badass for sure.
They gotta make their money somehow. They’re gonna have a very hard time getting me to spend a dime on any of that shit though. I’m not the only one.
yup. 🤔👎

It is a very lovely game to play with so much excitement.
I'm so glad it is finally out!
It is a fun and exciting game, I love fights and the experience of time travel around the world. worthy of praise.
Although launch day was a mess, this game will still be respected as one of the best multiplayer options.
And in the comparison of both games, which one do you think is the winner?
Overwatch 2 just because it’s basically the same, but with more content.
I feel excited seeing this lovely games to play and I won't hesitate in giving it a trial.
You won't regret playing this one.
100 hours in a single game I imagine it's one of his favorites. So it will do something very similar with Overwatch 2
Overwatch is just so much fun and it is one of the games that is difficult to put down.
