Her design doesn’t feel fresh, and her abilities and ultimate is underwhelming.

Sojourn feels like she was taken out of Apex Legends and dropped straight into the Overwatch series. Most Overwatch characters have some unique elements to them - things that aren’t really in other games. Overwatch 2 also introduces Sojourn, a new DPS hero. The game also removes double-point capture maps, more formally known as the assault maps in Overwatch. Unlike the current escort and hybrid maps, both teams are trying to move the robot and payload toward a goal. The game also has four new maps, two of which are for the newest game mode “Push.” This mode has a robot that teams have to move toward a goal on either side of the map. (Gameplay screenshot by Khushboo Rathore) There isn’t nearly enough space to cover all of them, but YouTube videos by Flats and KarQ go through all of the changes with visual explanations. Most of the other characters faced a variety of nerfs and buffs, with a few of them gaining new abilities. Teams are allowed one less tank in games, and former damage-per-second (DPS) character Doomfist became a tank. Overwatch 2 had some major changes, one of them being the move to five-person team gameplay instead of six-person. However, I was able to snag a beta version of Overwatch 2 through Twitch drops and wanted to get some practice in and try it out for The Diamondback. Now, this doesn’t mean I support or justify the actions of Blizzard - what they did, as detailed in a lawsuit from the state of California, is twisted and awful. Recently, I picked it back up again to prepare for the release of Overwatch 2. For some reason, it was a game that brought me comfort and just made me happy. Before everything went down with Activision Blizzard and its lawsuit, I loved playing Overwatch.
