Overwatch 2 Reveal Event livestream: What to expect

Blizzard promised three things players can expect from the Overwatch 2 Reveal Event livestream on June 16.

The first is details on Overwatch 2 moving to a “free-to-play live service” model. This had been heavily teased over the last few years, but specifics on what content will be free for all will be made clear during the Reveal Event.

The next two pertain to all the new content. Blizzard is going to do a full showcase on new Tank hero Junker Queen, who is expected to launch alongside Sojourn in the game’s October release. Finally, there’s a promise of plenty more “new heroes, maps, and modes” to be showcased in the broadcast.

There’s still plenty of details players are itching to hear about regarding Overwatch 2 ⁠— especially about the PvE campaign mode which has been absent from the earlier beta tests.

We’ll keep you updated here on just what Blizzard shows on June 16.
