Overwatch Classic No Hero Limits mode explained

In Overwatch Classic, No Hero Limits mode lets players have up to six of the same hero on a team. This is because the original release of Overwatch didn't have hero limits, either. The original game also had offense, defense, tank, and support heroes as opposed to the modern Overwatch 2's damage, tank, and support classifications. Therefore, players can choose any hero and role to play in Overwatch Classic. They're not locked into a role queue at all.

When does Overwatch Classic end?

  • Overwatch Classic No Hero Limits: Nov. 12 to Nov. 19
  • Overwatch Classic Single Hero Limits: Nov. 19 to Dec. 3.

The Overwatch Classic event featuring the No Hero Limits mode now runs from Nov. 12 to Nov. 19. After that, Single Hero Limits mode will apply for the remainder of the overall event.

The Overwatch 2 announcement made on social media stated a final date of Nov. 18 for No Hero Limits. However, based on our experience, in-game updates typically happen on Tuesdays at 11 a.m. PT. Therefore, players will likely have until then to enjoy No Hero Limits mode.
