Overwatch 2is officially launching as a free-to-play game on October 4, 2022.

It also features slimmed-down 5v5 teams with one less Tank than the original game.

What this early access launch will not include, however, is Overwatch 2s story-heavy PvE multiplayer component.

From the madness of Junkertown also comes a new hero: Junker Queen.

In-game, the character rules over Junkertown in Australia, overseeing bloody battles in a gladiatorial arena.

Notably, Wrecking Ball fought in this arena after landing on Earth.

Blizzard plans to show off more of Overwatch 2 later this week, during a special June 16 livestream.
