Overwatch 2 Retail Patch Notes – August 26, 2025

Season 18: Stadium Quick Play

Season 18: Stadium Quick Play reshapes the current with a PvP refresh, a massive Stadium overhaul, and the debut of our newest Support hero—the rebellious aquatic, Wuyang. Master the rhythm with a flow-powered kit, dive into the updated Stadium with new heroes and Payload Race mode plus climb the ranks after our PvP System Refresh resets the competitive playing field. Whether you're drafting comps, experimenting with Perks, or flexing your skills in third person Lúcio Ball, it's time to make a splash.

Event Updates

Summer Games 2025

Summer Games return with a slick new POV and a few extra tricks. Lúcio Ball & Lúcio Ball Remix kick into third person for the first time and the high-flying Winston Volleyball has returned for you to rally your squad on the court. Earn a new summer-colored skin for Lúcio and more seasonal rewards just by logging in and getting your reps. Spike, slide, and score—Summer Games heat up from Sept 2–15!

Junkrat's Loot Hunt

It’s raining loot again (and probably shrapnel). From September 12 to September 15, Junkrat’s Loot Hunt brings chaos back to the weekend with daily match challenges that unlock up to 9 Loot Boxes. Play 2, 5, and 10 matches each day to hit your milestones and stack the rewards. Wins count double, and all game modes apply. Progress resets at 11AM PT—so jump in, cause a little mayhem, and claim what’s yours before it all goes up in smoke.

General Updates

Hero Progression Updates

Hero Progression 2.0 rebuilds the system from the ground up with faster leveling, smoother UI, and a permanent prestige system built to flex your grind. Earn animated Ascended borders at milestone levels, unlock Loot Boxes at key breakpoints, and track long-term growth with every Hero. If you’ve been putting in the hours, this is the system that finally shows it off.

Hero Level represents how much time you've spent playing each hero. Level up your heroes by completing games in any game mode.
Progression Level represents how much you play overall. Every time you level up a hero, your Progression Level also goes up.
Your hero and account level badges are automatically prestiged after reaching certain levels.
Level up your heroes to earn Ascended borders, which displays in most areas during the course of a match. Opponents will not be able to see your Ascended prestige until after the match begins.
As you level up, kickstart your cosmetic collection for your favorite heroes by earning Highlight Intros, Emotes, Victory Poses, Player Icons, Credits, and more.
Additionally, unlock evolving Name Cards and Player Titles to show off your high level heroes!
Progression accolades can be hidden in Streamer Mode settings.

Advanced Information Panel

While in a match or the Practice Range, players can now interact with the Hero Information screen to find advanced details about their weapons, abilities, and passives.
The following types of information are present for all heroes where relevant: Damage, Healing, Cooldowns, Range, Radius, Effect Durations, Magazine Size, Reload Time, Falloff Ranges, Barrier Health, Overhealth, Overshield, Overarmor, Damage Amplification, Damage Reduction, Movement Speed Modifications, Deployable Health, Shot Spread, Shots Per Volley, Knockback, Charge Times, Energy, and many hero-specific mechanics that don't fall into the above categories are also included.
Some notable exceptions like Ultimate Charge and Rate of Fire are works in progress that we hope to add in future updates. We're excited to hear your feedback on this feature and we'd love to hear what specific additional information you'd like us to add in the future!
Keywords are included to help players understand how they interact with each other.
Keyword definitions can be accessed for in-depth explanations of mechanics.
Any part of a Keyword definition that is highlighted indicates that this aspect of the definition is not always the same for every instance of this Keyword.
Perks are not currently included in this feature.
This feature is not supported to calculate for Stadium Powers and Items equipped.
This feature is not supported in the Hero Gallery.

Mouse and Keyboard for Consoles

Console players can now use a Mouse and Keyboard natively to play Overwatch 2 if they prefer not to use a controller.
When it comes to the matchmaking pools, PC Pool and Console Pool will now be referred to as the Mouse and Keyboard Pool and the Controller Pool. This change will be updated in our in-game UI in a future update.
When on console and using a Mouse and Keyboard, you will be prompted to switch to the Mouse and Keyboard Pool in order to use a Mouse and Keyboard to play the game with. If you do not accept to switch to the Mouse and Keyboard Pool, your Mouse and Keyboard inputs will not work for gameplay controls, and you will only be able to use Controller. You can also manually switch to either pool in your Gameplay Options.
You can still use Mouse and Keyboard in either Pool to type messages into text chat and other editable fields.
When you switch to the Mouse and Keyboard Pool, you will be paired with all PC platforms and any console players who are using Mouse and Keyboard inputs and your internal MMR, skill ratings, and ranks for all game modes will be separate from your statistics in the Controller Pool.
When playing in the Mouse and Keyboard Pool, aim assist features are not available even when you are using a controller.
Controller players on PC platforms cannot enter the Controller Pool and cannot access aim assist features. To play on the Controller pool, you must play on a console platform.
Use of unauthorized peripherals to bypass the restrictions in the Controller Pool will be considered as cheating and will result in actions taken on your Battle.net account.

Real-Time Text Moderation

If another player types a message into Text Chat that is detected to be potentially disruptive, offensive, or harmful to other users, the message in its entirety will be hidden from other players.
You may choose to see that message and report it, if necessary, directly from the text chat feed.
You can disable this filter in the Text Chat section of the Social Options.
As always, using inappropriate chat or being disruptive to other players is against our In-Game Code of Conduct, regardless of the words used or the context implied.

First-Time User Experience

New players will now have access to every Hero in the game from the start!
The entry requirement to participate in Competitive matches has been lowered to 20 wins in Unranked matches.

Competitive Play Updates

Hero Skill Rating

Skill Rating (SR) has returned to Overwatch in a new form, allowing players to analyze their skill at individual heroes. We originally removed Skill Rating from Competitive Play because players perceived it as an absolute truth about skill, instead of the best-guess approximation it really is. For two Gold 5 players on a team together today, we think players feel accurately represented in how closely skilled they are. But for 2069 and 2068 players on a team together, we've made a subtle implication that one of these players is better. These players are extremely close in skill and it would be incorrect to assume with certainty that one is more skilled than the other, but players tended to see a higher number as objectively more skilled, and this led to some unfortunate social dynamics within matches because of the comparisons it caused.

Comparisons are great for Hero Skill Rating though! Since this information isn't shared outside of your Career Profile, we think giving you our best guesses will help you to understand and analyze your own skill at your stable of heroes in the most fun way.

Hero Skill Rating is a number between 0 and 5000, with 5000 being equivalent to the top of Champion 1.
Hero Skill Rating is not used in Matchmaking in any way.
After Placements in Role or Open Queue, players will now be able to Place each of the 44 heroes in Season 18.
A hero needs to play 5 Placement matches to get their final Hero Skill Rating.
A hero must be played for at least 3 minutes within a match to qualify for Placement.
A hero must be one of your top 3 most played heroes within that match to qualify for Placement.
Hero Placements (and Hero Skill Rating) are not shared across Role and Open Queues.
Hero Skill Rating updates are shown at the end of the match on the Competitive Overview screen.
Only your top 3 most played heroes within that match will be displayed here, but every hero played in the match is updated behind the scenes based on the amount of time they were played within the match.
Your Hero Skill Ratings can be viewed in the Career Profile under the Hero Comparison dropdown at any time, and on each hero's Statistics page.
A new tab has been added to the Competitive Info screen explaining many of the topics above.

Skill Rank Reset

With a huge wave of new Perks and tuning to existing Perks, this soft reset is designed to put players on an even playing field and give them a chance to climb even higher than ever before.
The highest Ranks (Master, Grandmaster, and Champion) have been tuned again to include a higher percentage of the player population once players are well calibrated.
All ranks in Role Queue and Open Queue in Competitive Play have been reset to Unranked, and all players will need to complete their respective 10 placement matches for each role.
Hero Skill Ratings have also been soft reset for the first time.

Competitive Rewards

Achieving Diamond or above in Role Queue or Open Queue will now unlock Freja's Galactic skin.
Rewards are now based on your highest rank in a season instead of your final rank.
Top 500 rewards are an exception to the change above and require your final rank to be Top 500 at the end of the season.

Competitive Play New Player Requirements

The new player requirement to unlock Competitive Play has been lowered to 20 total matches won in Unranked modes.

Hero Updates

Armor still reduces incoming damage by 7, up to a maximum of 50% of the damage received.
Combined damage reduction and armor can no longer exceed 50% unless an ability increases it past that point, such as Ramattra’s Block or Hazard’s Block.
In cases where total damage reduction already exceeds 50% before armor is applied, armor will have no additional effect.

Developer Comments: Since Season 16, a notable bug has altered how damage reduction and armor interact. This fix restores their intended functionality and clarifies the rules moving forward.

In addition to balance changes for some of our heroes, every hero will be getting at least one new perk to help give options for more fun, impactful gameplay that aligns to the hero's identity.

Tank

D.Va

Heavy Rockets - Major Perk

Removed.

Precision Fusion - Major Perk

New Major Perk.
Press Reload to reduce Fusion Cannon's spread by 75% for 3 seconds.

Doomfist

Developer Comments: The change to Power Matrix aligns the perk with Doomfist’s regular Power Block, ensuring consistency in how Empowered Punch is charged.

One-Two - Minor Perk

Now updated to where hitting an enemy into a wall with Rocket Punch reloads Hand Cannon and overfills ammo by 2.

Seismic Empowerment - Major Perk

Removed.

Aftershock - Major Perk

New Major Perk.
Enemies hit by Seismic Slam are slowed by 30% for 1.5 seconds.

Power Matrix - Major Perk

Damage absorbed during Power Matrix now provides equivalent Empowered Punch amount to Power Block.

Hazard

Developer Comments: Jagged Wall was providing too much impact as a single ability, particularly in combination with the Reconstitution perk. Reducing its health and knockback damage lowers its overall value, while the Spike Guard change requires Hazard to be actively fighting to gain its ammo benefit.

Spike Guard - Secondary Fire

Now only refills ammo while dealing damage to an enemy.

Jagged Wall - Ability 2

Knockback damage reduced from 50 to 40.
Health reduced from 400 to 350.

Mobile Fortification - Minor Perk

New Minor Perk.
While Fortify is active. Orisa has no move speed reduction and no heat generation.

Ramattra

Developer Comments: Ramattra has become too durable in Nemesis Form while blocking. The armor and Block adjustments reduce his ability to withstand large amounts of damage and force more deliberate defensive choices. The change to Ravenous Vortex removes the jarring stop in horizontal momentum, notably when paired with Vengeful Vortex.

Ravenous Vortex - Ability 2

No longer interrupts horizontal momentum when first affecting a target. Nemesis Form
Bonus armor reduced from 300 to 250.

Roadhog

Developer Comments: Pig Pen was originally intended to give Roadhog more spatial presence on the battlefield, but in practice it reinforced his hook combo playstyle and limited his flexibility in engagements. To address this, we’ve restored the classic Primary and Secondary Fire on Scrap Gun, providing more consistent damage options and letting Roadhog better contest space on the front line. The Take a Breather adjustments have been successful, offering greater defensive uptime without excessive personal sustain, so its functionality remains the same, but it has been moved to Ability 2 with a default toggle and additional cancel options to keep that flexibility intact.

Scrap Gun - Primary Fire

Reverted to classic Primary and Secondary Fire functionality.
Primary Fire no longer includes a volley of 4 extra large, long-ranged projectiles.

Introducing Stadium Quick Play

Stadium Quick Play is a faster, lighter Stadium mode with shorter match times, quicker item economy, backfill support, and Cross Play.

Stadium Quick Play matches play best of 5, meaning the first team to win 3 rounds wins.
Powers are granted on rounds 1, 2, 3, and 5.
Stadium Quick Play uses an accelerated economy allowing players to reach the maximum potential of their builds faster.
Stadium Quick Play uses the same Cross Play grouping and matchmaking rules as Unranked Quick Play.
You can group together with your friends regardless of skill level or input pool for Stadium Quick Play matches.
Stadium Quick Play will feature backfill for whenever a player leaves or disconnects from a match.
If you are backfilling a match, you will be granted a cash amount that is the average to your remaining teammates, and you will have one minute to shop in the Armory and equip powers and purchase items while the current round is playing.

New Stadium Map Type — Payload Race

Payload Race pits both teams in a race to push their own payload to the finish on a symmetrical map.

Like in Escort, push your own payload when standing next to or on top of it.
If you contest the opponent's payload, it will stop progress until you are eliminated or pushed away.
A payload that is not being escorted will slowly move backwards.
Teams need to coordinate between both pushing their own payload while also trying to slow down progress of their opponents.
The map features checkpoints on each team's track to guarantee progress once the payload crosses that point.
Whoever reaches the finish line first or pushes their payload the farthest when time expires will claim the win for that round.

New Stadium Maps

Powder Keg Mines - Payload Race - On a lost detour from Route 66, you'll race through a not-so-abandoned mine and go for the gold.
Thames District - Payload Race - Push the payload through the foggy alleys of Kings Row in this exciting showdown.
Oasis Gardens - Control - Return to the gardens of Oasis and play with new jump pads and explore all corners of the popular control map.

Stadium Competitive Play Grouping Restrictions

Rookie, Novice, Contender and Elite players will have no grouping restrictions.
Pro players can group within 15 divisions.
All-Star players can group within 10 divisions
Legend players can group within 5 divisions.

This compensation will be reduced at higher leagues.
Players who still leave Stadium Competitive Play matches will receive the full loss penalty and be suspended from all Competitive Play modes.

Dynamic Stadium Point Adjustments

Stadium Points earned or lost are now dynamically determined for every match based on your current and predicted rank. This change should help you find your expected rank much faster at the start of every season.
Players with larger gaps will progress faster to their predicted league.
Players are protected from rank loss until they get close to their predicted rank, no matter which league they are in.

Loser Consolation

When a player loses a Competitive game, each individual round now grants Stadium Points toward their rank and Competitive Points.

Stadium Balance Updates

Tank

D.Va

In this update we have a large suite of changes with the goal of adding more variety to how Mercy players can build. Most notably Crepusuclar Circle has been replaced. It has long been a dominant pick that made it very difficult to build any other way as well as being a pain point for Mercy's opponents. However, we've added two new powers in its place. So, we hope you'll enjoy exploring the new options. We've tried to make Ability Power builds and Caduceus Blaster builds more realistic with new Power interactions and updated itemization.

현무 지팡이 - 기본 발사

피해를 주는 물의 구슬을 발사합니다. 누르고 있으면 궤적을 바꾸고 폭발력을 강화할 수 있습니다.

회복의 물결 - 보조 발사

아군에게 지속되는 치유의 물결을 부여합니다. 대상을 계속 누르고 있으면 자원을 소모해 치유 속도가 증가합니다.

격류 - 기술 1

물에 올라타 더 빨리 이동하고 더 높이 점프합니다.

수호의 파도 - 기술 2

전방으로 물결을 보내 아군이 받는 치유량을 증가시키고 적을 밀쳐냅니다.

해일 폭발 - 궁극기

짧은 시간 후 폭발하는 물로 자신 또는 아군을 보호합니다. 폭발은 적을 넘어뜨리고 보호 대상에게 강력한 치유 효과를 제공합니다.

범람 - 보조 특전

격류를 활성화하고 있는 동안 탄약을 10 얻고 치유 자원이 33% 증가합니다.

균형 - 보조 특전

물의 구슬로 피해를 주면 회복의 물결 지속 치유량이 2초 동안 40% 증가합니다.

돌격

시그마

개발자의 의견: 시그마의 방벽은 게임 후반부에 걸맞게 비율이 조정되지 않았으며, 시그마가 감당해야 하는 피해 흡수량에 비해 지나치게 약하게 느껴지곤 했습니다. 전투가 더욱 치열해지는 동안 방벽이 조금 더 유지되도록 방벽의 내구도를 높였습니다. 또한 강착 중심 빌드는 저조한 성능을 보이고 있는데, 빠르게 진행되는 난전 속에서 사용하기에는 이 기술의 주기가 비교적 느린 것이 주된 원인으로 보입니다. 재사용 대기시간 감소 효과가 적용된 강착은 반응 속도가 빨라지고 더욱 효과적일 것입니다! 특히 잦은 군중 제어 기술이 전세를 뒤집을 수 있는 게임 후반부의 한타에서 말이죠.

방벽 내구도 비율 조정이 100%에서 150%로 증가했습니다. 이제 재화 획득으로 얻는 방벽 내구도가 증가합니다.

하이퍼루프 - 파워

재사용 대기시간 감소량이 0.5초에서 0.8초로 증가했습니다.
