Overwatch Rush

Overwatch season 3 sees the introduction of Shion, formerly referred to as Hero 52. Here's when Overwatch season 3 starts in your time zone.

Blizzard will give away tons of cosmetics for Overwatch's 10th anniversary starting May 12. Here's what players can expect.

Blizzard's hero shooter is on a slow upward trajectory with fans after Overwatch 2's rough Steam launch in 2023.

Overwatch's next hero is a dual-wielding cyberpunk demon named Shion, developer Blizzard has revealed, and she looks like she's ripped straight from Cyberpunk 2077. Shion is billed as "the most terrifying elder of the Hashimoto Clan," a Japanese criminal family that has ties to the global terrorist organization Talon and is behind the assassination of Sojiro Shimada, the father of Hanzo and Genji. That should make for some interesting story developments between the two brothers and Shion, with Kiriko and Mizuki also shown in artwork for the new season and presumably set to play a role as well.

It turns out that Fortnite's long-rumored collaboration with Overwatch is real after all, and four characters from Blizzard's hero shooter will pop up in the Fortnite item shop on the morning of Thursday, May 14. Fortnite will go offline on Wednesday night for an update, and the Overwatch gang should be in the shop when the game comes back online. The main thrust of the collab will be new gameplay items and the Sandy Strip on the Battle Royale map will apparently be getting a new themed area. We don't have a lot of specific details about the gameplay part of the collab just yet, though you can
