A high-difficulty game where strategy is crucial
Overwatch 2 is an FPS game where players engage in 5v5 battles. With over 30 playable characters, each possessing unique main attacks, abilities, and ultimates, understanding their characteristics is essential.
Furthermore, each character is assigned a role, meaning there are opponents they excel against and others they struggle against. The key to victory lies in minimizing weaknesses and selecting characters that counter the enemy composition. Of course, aiming skills are also crucial for defeating opponents, making the game feel challenging.

Abundant Game Modes
Overwatch 2 offers an abundance of game modes, with 5 main modes alone. Additionally, there are over 10 arcade modes that cannot be played in the main modes.
It's important to note that game modes cannot be selected in the main modes. Therefore, it's necessary to familiarize yourself with the rules to be able to adapt to any game mode.
Lowered Barrier with the Introduction of Free-to-Play
Unlike its predecessor Overwatch, Overwatch 2 has become free-to-play, resulting in an increase in new users and a lowered barrier to entry. However, there are still some players who engage in toxic behavior, so it is recommended to take precautions such as turning off chat in order to fully enjoy Overwatch 2.
