Overwatch 2 initiates Season 15 under the title "Honor and Glory," heralding changes in gameplay.
In the latest update, Overwatch 2 - Season 15: Honor and Glory, brings a significant evolution to the game with the introduction of the Perks system [1]. This innovative feature allows players to customise and upgrade their hero abilities dynamically within a match, increasing tactical options and variability [1].
The Perks system introduces mid-match hero upgrades, providing an exciting new layer to the gameplay [1]. Players can now choose between Minor Perks, which offer an edge, and Major Perks, which can change the course of battle [1].
Season 15 also marks the beginning of a new Competitive Year, offering a fresh slate for players to prove their skill [1]. While specific details on changes or new competitive rules in Season 15 were not indicated in the latest patch notes or announcements [2], the Competitive Year framework continues to evolve in Overwatch 2 [2].
The Season 15 Premium Battle Pass is packed with new content, including Legendary skins such as Rainy Day Kiriko, Bi'an Orisa, Goumang Hanzo, Toxic Venture, and Cyber Enforcer Zarya [1]. Additionally, players can unlock the Mythic Pixiu Zenyatta skin by earning Mythic Prisms in the Premium Battle Pass [1].
A free trial weekend for the new character, Freja, will be held during Season 15 [2]. Freja, a former search and rescue operative turned bounty hunter, will join Overwatch 2 in Season 16 [2].
Weekly challenges during the Perked Up Event, a season-long celebration of the new Perks system, can unlock up to 10 Loot Boxes [1]. Loot Boxes are back in Season 15, including two Legendary Loot Boxes with the Premium Battle Pass [1].
Earning rewards in the Competitive Year includes Galactic Weapon Skins and all-new Weapon Charms [1]. Freja, a new character, has been added to the Overwatch 2 roster [1].
Overwatch 2 remains a game with mature content, including Blood, Mild Language, Use of Tobacco, Violence, Users Interact, and In-Game Purchases [1]. The Overwatch 2 game can be downloaded for free on the Nintendo SwitchTM system [1].
Tianma Lucio is an Epic skin in the Premium Battle Pass [1]. Freja's main weapon is the Revdraw Crossbow [1].
