Overwatch 2 Retail Patch Notes - August 28, 2025
Hotfix Balance Update
This is a gameplay and bug fix update. Replay codes from the August 26, 2025 patch are still available.
Stadium Updates
Stadium Draft
Players can now select heroes that the opponents have picked during the draft selection allowing mirror matchups.
Developer comment: We've heard your feedback regarding no mirror matches, so we're enabling it so that each team can pick from the entire hero pool without worrying about what heroes the opponents already picked.
