Returning game modes in Overwatch 2
The game will bring back all of the existing game modes from the first instalment.
These include...
- Push
- Story Experience
- Hero Missions
- Assault
- Control
- Escort
- Hybrid
Push, Story Experience, and Hero Missions are all new to Overwatch 2.
The Story Experience and Hero Missions sound like they may be a development of the lore and can provide some solid evidence besides the graffiti in-game.
New game modes for Overwatch 2
In the beta testing for the new game, Blizzard fans had the chance to play one of the new game modes released.
New game modes include Push, Story Experience, and Hero Missions.
However, Push was featured in the beta tests for the sequel so players have had the advantage of playing this one early.
The new game mode Push
Push features a robotic friend called Clive.
The aim of this game mode is to gain control of Clive and try to get him to the enemy spawn.
Players win by either pushing Clive to the end or by pushing Clive the furthest distance on the map.
Checkpoints are also along Clive's journey, where he will stop for a bit and rest up. Capturing these checkpoints also unlocks forward spawn points.
