Blizzard announced that Overwatch 2 is about to open the first round of PVP testing, and players can finally look forward to playing new heroes and new maps. Professional gamers appear to have gotten their hands on the game in advance, and today, a private beta image was exposed on Facebook and then deleted, and a lot of information can be seen from this picture.
There is a player named "McGravy" on the picture, who is currently one of the assistant coaches of the Overwatch League team Florida Carnival, which further enhances the credibility of the picture.
According to this leaked picture, first of all, we can see the hero "Soldier 76" selected by "McGravy", whose image is very different from that of the current game, whose mask only covers his eyes, has a thick white beard, and looks older and rougher.
This is followed by the new hero "Sogyen" and the old hero "Lucio" hero selection interface new image, as well as the debut of the current output hero "Doomsday Iron Fist" as a tank hero, after the official announcement that the hero will be redone. Finally, there is the map in the background: Ilios Deep Well, and unlike Overwatch now, the Ilhos Deep Well map lighting in Overwatch 2 is based on the afternoon timeline.
Although this leaked image is interesting, it doesn't provide much specific information about the game.
In addition, "Overwatch" officially announced that it will hold a special developer live broadcast at 3:00 a.m. Beijing time on March 19, mainly introducing the early Alpha test response of "Overwatch 2" and the plan of the first Beta test, and fans can go to twitch's official channel of Overwatch to watch.
Participants in this special livestream include Overwatch esports host and commentator Soe Gschwind-Repp and Overwatch 2 game director Aaron Keller, as well as other Overwatch developers.
Overwatch 2's early Alpha tests have been distributed to Blizzard insiders and related partners, and this is the first time the response to it has been publicly explored. Overwatch 2's first beta test will begin in late April, with testing times to be determined in China.
