One of Overwatch 2’s big surprises from its Spotlight showcase today is the addition of Perks, which set to redefine gameplay in the core OW2 match structure.
OW2 Perks are hero-specific upgrades that are earned throughout a match, with one Minor and one Major upgrade to choose. The Perks range from slight passive tweaks to completely new abilities that overhaul how a hero performs.
