Today at BlizzCon 2016, the Overwatch team shed light on a few of the improvements and changes that are on the way for its popular team-based shooter, including when fans can expect to see the addition of a server browser.
During a Q&A with fans, the studio said it's "actively working" on adding server browser, but couldn't provide a specific date as to when it will launch.
The team was also asked about holiday-specific items, and whether or not there are plans to make content like the Halloween-exclusive loot available separately sometime in the future. While the studio refrained from giving a definitive answer, the team emphasized that they're still experimenting with the loot system and using community response as a guide when looking toward the future.
During yesterday's panel, the team confirmed that Overwatch's Quick Play mode will have a single-hero limit. That said, the game's upcoming Arcade mode will provide a no-limits option when selecting heroes.
Overwatch's new Arcade mode, as well as the brand-new character Sombra, are set to launch on the Public Test Realm next week. Meanwhile, the upcoming map, Oasis, will be available sometime in December.
The love for Blizzard's incredibly popular team-based shooter has been on full display at BlizzCon, with tons of cosplayers roaming the show floor decked out as Overwatch's diverse cast of heroes. Be sure to check out IGN's BlizzCon 2016 cosplay gallery for a look all the create outfits we spotted.
