Anyone eager for more Overwatch 2 updates should tune in to the Overwatch League Grand Finals happening Sept. 25, as Blizzard will show off more of the highly-anticipated sequel during the show.
It looks like we’ll get a look at the hero reworks for both Sombra and Bastion, in addition to seeing some updated character designs. Better yet, there’s going to be an actual exhibition match of Overwatch 2 between several pro players —which is pretty bananas considering the game isn’t due out until next year. All of these sneak peeks will happen during the pre-show and halftime breaks.
Check out the snazzy trailer for this announcement for yourself below.
Woo woo woo whee woo whee!
Group up with the Overwatch team on September 25 as we reveal new Overwatch 2 updates live during the @OverwatchLeague Grand Finals.

It’ll be pretty interesting to see pros play Overwatch 2, particularly because of how different the game is likely to play since it’s 5v5 rather than the original Overwatch’s 6v6. It makes sense that top players would get access first, though, as they will be playing an early build of Overwatch 2 during the 2022 season of Overwatch League. Here’s to hoping the upcoming exhibition match is exciting!
