Overwatch 2's gameplay is about to get an overhaul with a brand-new Perks system that will shake things up starting in Season 15.

Blizzard is making some major changes to Overwatch 2 for its Season 15 update, including adding all new gameplay in the form of a perks system and the return of loot box rewards, on top of the new heroes and skins.

Stadium is arguably the biggest change announced for Overwatch 2 so far. The new gameplay mode is a best-of-seven romp between two teams of five that’s akin to CounterStrike: Go or Valorant. You’ll earn currency each round, with rotating maps and objectives alternating between Control, Clash, and Push.

The latest Overwatch 2 Spotlight stream brought a slew of major updates regarding the future of Blizzard’s hero shooter. In addition to a pair of new Heroes, upcoming seasons of Overwatch 2 will see the addition of Perks, new Competitive formats, and the return of Loot Boxes.

While perks will bring game-changing and strategy-shifting abilities to core Overwatch 2 game modes, there’s also the entirely separate, but similar in theme Stadium mode. This new gameplay mode, which Blizzard says it’s been working on for years, is much more complex, but builds on a similar strategy of shaking up Overwatch 2 gameplay.

As the game races to keep up with Marvel Rivals, the developers announced a slew of new changes coming in 2025 that bring more player choice and a little bit of chaos back into the game.
