Overwatch 2 may have shelved the promised campaign, but that doesn’t mean it’s given up on delivering new content. Pushing forward with its seasons, it continues to inject fresh elements regularly, much to the delight of its dedicated fan base who still engage with this once-acclaimed shooter that propelled hero shooters into unprecedented popularity. And now, the spotlight falls on the sixth season, aptly named Invasion.
Overwatch 2: Invasion will include the first three cooperative story missions, which were initially planned as part of this year’s single-player mode that was subsequently canceled. Additionally, it will feature a PvE event in King’s Row, a capture mode named Flashpoint paired with two maps, and mastery missions designed to hone our hero skills. This practice will come in handy because the most special inclusion of all is a new playable character that seems to fill an intriguing gap between the existing roles.
Named Illari, this new heroine is a support character of Peruvian origin equipped with a unique healing ability and a healing drone that can attach to walls, along with some DPS capabilities. While her exact abilities have not been officially unveiled, the trailer introducing this new season has given us a rough idea of what to expect from this promising new addition to the game’s roster.
The release of Overwatch 2: Invasion is set for August 10th at 9:00 PM in Spain. The price for the release will be €15, which will include, along with Invasion, 1000 Overwatch coins, a new legendary skin for Sojourn, and Sojourn herself. A great deal for Overwatch 2 fans who have already thoroughly enjoyed this title.
