As mentioned, along with this update, Blizzard released Competitive Play mode for Overwatch. This mode gives players a more serious experience by allowing them to track their progress, play against players of matching skill, and also awards them for outstanding play and teamwork. This mode is available once players hit level 25.

We also saw adjustments to both McCree and Widowmaker. These characters saw a reduction in the amount of damage they do as well as smaller changes to their play styles. Blizzard also plans make changes to the Support hero, Zenyatta in the future.

The Competitive Play mode for Overwatch is now available for all versions of the game.
