Blizzard Entertainment is not losing pace on the momentum gained with the sequel for Overwatch 2 as evidently, the game is a success within the promises given so far and this is what to expect for Season 2.

Season 2 main feature is the entrance of the newest Tank Ramattra, who has the ability to shift between a support-oriented Omnic Form and a damage-focused Nemesis Form.

Meanwhile it remains to see if adding Ramattra as a new tank goes along while exposing Sojourn to be nerfed while Doomfist, Mercy, Ana, and more will receive noticeable buffs and pretty much balancing, according to Blizzard, based on the feedback of Season 1.

Here is the patch note:
