Overwatch 2 Season 17: Powered Up! is now live.
The update for the free-to-play hero shooter adds Sigma, Zenyatta, and Junkrat to the Stadium roster, alongside two new maps: Esperança and Samoa. Also introduced is the Stadium Forge tool, which lets players build and share custom setups.
There’s a new gameplay feature as well: Map Voting for Quick Play and Competitive modes. And, the Flashpoint map Aatlis is now in–game. Players can check out the fast-paced 8-bit game mode while the event is still live, too. Mid-season updates will include reworks of New Junk City and Suravasa.
Season 17 runs until August 26.
