Activision Blizzard: Phil Spencer pleased with acquisition progress

With today’s update, Blizzard has reinstated the heroes Bastion and Torbjörn in Overwatch 2.

Overwatch 2 players are getting another update today on all platforms. Changes include the return of Bastion. The hero has been temporarily disabled due to an exploit. Torbjörn can now also be selected again in competitive play.

Also included in the update is a bug fix for the Junktertown map. There was a performance issue with some canisters placed on the map.

Finally, the 30% ultimate charge between turns on control cards that some players were mistakenly keeping is also gone.

More details can be found in the patch notes
