'Overwatch 2'17 Season: Power Up', a new season, will begin on the 25th.
In the 17th season, new content will be introduced ranging from battlefield voting to various stadium innovations, two mythical trophies released at the start of the season, as well as new battlefields, specific period events, and battle passes full of rewards.
First, the stadium, which is a round-based PvP mode of 'Overwatch 2', is updated. Zenyata, Sigma, and Junkrat will be new to the stadium, adding two new stadium battlegrounds 'Isperansa' and 'Samoa'. Expanded build tools and stadium build production rooms can be introduced to create a more advanced strategy. The Stadium Build Production Room is a production/storage/sharing system that allows you to test and refine team combinations like professionals, including all heroes' early and late game example equipment.
In addition, for the first time, the stadium grade will be initialized, and everyone will have an opportunity to prove their skills anew from the beginning. A drive is added as a reward for performance, a custom game that allows you to set your own rules is introduced, and a new All-Star reward is also coming.
In addition, with the start of the 17th season, the battlefield choices presented in quick matches and competitions will allow you to determine the form of the match before the game and control where to fight. Once the roles are fixed, you can choose from three random battlefields, each vote adding 10% to the probability that the battlefield will be selected, and the battlefield is finally selected through a roulette-style spinning board.
In addition, at the beginning of the season, two mythological skins will be introduced. Shinhwa Horang Hero Skin for D.Va (Diva), many people's favorite Korean hero, attracts attention. It develops over four stages with a skin that captures the power of D.Va and the spirit of a tiger, and honors the story of Onui who became the sun and the moon by combining mythical visual effects, themed voice dialogue, and decorative options rooted in folktales. Another mythological skin features Ripper's mythical steel envoy weapon skin.
Three new battlefields will also be added to completely hone their skills. The core mode features Atlis, a vibrant new flashpoint battlefield that showcases Morocco's beauty and culture. From lush gardens to luxurious resort spaces, Blizzard said it was designed with fighting in narrower areas, neat transitions and fast momentum in mind.
At the stadium, the distance of Isperanza returns to a round-based push battlefield, where you can meet new high floors and tactics that change with each round. A volcanic occupation point in Samoa is also added to the stadium battlefield list.
