‘Overwatch’ Latest News & Update: New Characters, Information Leak & Changes To Symmetra’s Offense, Defense Moves

Jeff Kaplan, game director of "Overwatch", recently revealed about changes in Symmetra, updates that will come in the future, PTR and new Heroes that will come in the near future. Recently, Blizzard treated "Overwatch" fans to a huge update about Symmetra, the PTR and loads of new maps and characters that will be coming to the game very soon.

Express reports that Blizzard is about to make dramatic changes to the way Symmetra plays, as revealed by Jeff Kaplan. The team is looking at Symmetra, however, changes will not be very easy since some minor number tweaks that will have her available and ready for play in a changed fashion sooner or later. Kaplan adds that the types of changes that they want for Symmetra in "Overwatch" might take them longer than something like the Widowmaker scope change since such was relatively small and quite easy for them to do.

It is also reported that Blizzard wants to make her more viable in more situations including offense and defense, but those changes will not be coming until sometime in the middle of November. Kaplan also revealed that fans should expect more new heroes and maps in "Overwatch" very soon. In fact, one new Hero is said to be very close to launching and another would be out in 2017.

"Overwatch" fans had an exciting weekend and a lot to look forward to because of an alleged leak. The leaked information pertains to a new "Overwatch" hero, Sombra, which was hinted at and even involved with the many ARGs which Blizzard has to run to promote the game. The original post which talks about the leak, however, has been deleted but screenshots of the initial post in still currently in circulation in Reddit. Those who have seen the original post say that there were details of Blizzard's intranet with links to another intranet, which could point out that such was meant to circulate internally.

Sombra looked like she was going into a rotation in a development build of "Overwatch" on the day of the alleged announcement itself. The post described her to be "one of the world's best and most notorious hackers" and had lost everything during the Omnic Crisis. She had experience working with the Mexico-based Los Muertos gang but was pushed underground after getting very notorious and was later recruited by Talon.
