Overwatch 2 Season 7 Brings Reworked Kit For Sombra, Rise Of Darkness Event, And More
Fight Lilith in the Diablo Crossover Event.
Overwatch 2 Season 7 lands on October 10th, and with it comes lots of updates to the shooter including a Sombra rework, a new map, and the Diablo crossover event where players take on Lilith.
Participate in an all-new survival brawl, Trials of Sanctuary, where you will take on the Blessed Mother Lilith Moira. Choose one of six different heroes: Demon Hunter Sombra, Barbarian Zarya, Night Raven Illari, Cleric Lifeweaver, Imperious Reinhardt, and Inarius Pharah. You'll be facing an onslaught of forces in a fierce battle for survival.
Overwatch 2 is also bringing in one of its most complex maps. Samoa is a new control map where you'll fight on tropical beaches, villages, and even inside a volcano.
Sombra is hitting the battlefield with a reworked kit, with the goal of making her more committed to the targets she engages with. She should have a more active feel to her kit while maintaining her identity as the world's greatest hacker.
The Route 66 Escort Map is also getting some changes, opening the options a bit for attackers who were previously struggling with chokepoints on the map.

Note: Activision Blizzard has been sued by California’s Civil Rights Department, alleging violations of California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act and Equal Pay Act. CEO Bobby Kotick is alleged to have known about the alleged violations within his company. These allegations have all been denied by Activision Blizzard and the company points to additional diversity and inclusion training as past examples of taking the accusations seriously at the time they were made.
