Overwatch 2 Nov. 12 patch notes: Doomfist buffs and more

It may be the time for classic Overwatch for many players, but that hasn’t stopped the devs over at Blizzard from shipping a midseason patch to the current game, either. And the patch notes should be of interest to Doomfirst mains.

The OW2 update brings with it a mode for everyone to enjoy the classic Overwatch experience, complete with no hero limits, day one hero abilities, and 2CP maps like Hanamura and Volskaya Industries back in the fold. But there’s also changes coming to heroes and a couple maps for players who want to grind ranked or just play through some of the game’s other arcade modes. And to top it all off, there’s also free rewards for those who log into the game between Nov. 15 and Nov. 22 to celebrate World of Warcraft‘s 30th anniversary.

Here are the OW2 patch notes for Nov. 12.
