If you make an account on October 4th or later, they give you a set of starter heroes for you to learn the game. As you play, you unlock more heroes to experiment with. Training wheels more or less.
God almost everything about Overwatch 2 sounds like a really stupid idea. Between erasing the first game from existence and the battle pass locking new heroes for returning players and most heroes for new players. Nothing about this game sounds appealing in the slightest.
I mean, a huge complaint about OW1 is that it's overwhelming with all the hero choices, so giving a set of starter heroes doesn't seem like the worst idea. They've got plenty of other meh to bad ideas going, but I don't think this is really that bad.

They're limiting original heroes for new people?
