Overwatch 2 patch notes July 23

This Overwatch 2 patch fixes some minor errors, including a misspelling in one of Reinhardt's voice lines and voice chat's missing volume sliders. Players can also get two free tier skips in the Battle Pass due to a bug that reset the daily and weekly challenges incorrectly at the start of the season. If you've already completed 80 tiers of the Battle Pass, then the free tier skips are banked for Overwatch 2 Season 12.

Dorado's return and Mercy's Resurrect

Additionally, the Dorado map no longer crashes. As for Mercy, her Resurrect is now tracking correctly on the scoreboard and the progression screen.

That's it for this week's Overwatch 2 patch notes. However, players can look forward to an update from game director Aaron Keller later on this week as well. According to a post on social media, this director's take will address 6v6 in Overwatch 2.

"I’ve finished writing it but it’s going to take a little while to localize. It’s pretty long. So next week sometime," Keller wrote on X.

That's all for now. Stick around on esports.gg for more news and updates!
