Overwatch 2 Announces New Hero Mauga from Samoa, Season 8 Details

The first announcement at BlizzCon was Overwatch 2’s new hero, Mauga. The tank from Samoa can handle two massive railguns and can even heal itself if it takes critical damage.

Although the Nintendo eShop news feed already pulled the lid on Overwatch 2’s new playable characters this afternoon, the official announcement took place at BlizzCon. Mauga enters the multis with season 8, but due to the developers’ party in California, it will be free to play for everyone this weekend.

Mauga, by the way, hails from Samoa and is designed to neutralize opponents up close with its two massive railguns. And with the chargeable ability of Overrun, you can easily break through the enemy’s front line, as well as summon an aura of damage resistance around yourself, or even trap the opponent.

The new hero will definitely become active in the 8th season starting on December 5th.

Blizzard has revealed what new content will be added to its shooter in the coming months. Season 10 will see a Damage hero named Venture, while Season 12 will feature a support named Space Ranger. A new PvP mode, Clash, has been announced, in which five points will be distributed on the map in a row, each match begins with the capture of the middle point, if this is achieved, the opponent will be pushed back one checkpoint. The goal is to capture as many as five control points or for our team to win by more points.

Along with Clash, there is also a new map, Hanaoka, which will be a reworked version of the classic Overwatch course Hanamura. In addition, at the beginning of 2024, the competitive system of the game will be significantly transformed, which promises new competition rewards, and stronger themes are promised for the following seasons. There will be Eldritch Horror, Egyptian mythology, witches, and a “mirror universe” in which evil and good heroes switch roles.
