A new Overwatch experimental patch has just gone live, bringing certain heroes’ OW2 changes to the live game for the very first time.

Players were shocked on June 9 when a new experimental update was available bringing in a slew of changes to many of the game’s heroes.

Despite all eyes on Overwatch 2 and fans awaiting the next beta, this new update gives heroes such as Reinhardt and Zenyatta some of their abilities that were added in the sequel.

For instance, now, Reinhardt can cancel his Charge by pressing the ability button again and Zenyatta gains his new Snap Kick passive that serves as a boop that deals 50 damage.

Blizzard Entertainment

D.Va is getting some buffs this patch.

In the developer comments, Blizzard explains that this update is designed to: “Help tune the live game, potentially shift the meta there, and also line up with the eventual transition to OW2.”

It will be interesting to see how many more updates the live game gets going forward, but for now, players might have a good reason to jump back into the original game.
