It’s time for Season 2 in Overwatch, and there’s plenty of new content for players to explore. First off is the new character, Sierra, who will be joining the party as a DPS unit. We’ll also get to enjoy new modes, cosmetics, and more.

All new additions in Overwatch Season 2 Reign of Talon

Here’s a list of all major additions in the second season.

• Sierra as a new character: Sierra will be the latest addition to the roster that keeps getting bigger. You can find everything about her in this guide, which also includes a brief description of her abilities.

• Grand Mesa event: The Grand Mesa event will be available for three weeks as part of Sierra’s lore and her fight against Talon. The journey will help you figure out who Sierra is as you explore the curated challenges to get different loot. Happening across four different beats, there’s plenty to be done before it expires on May 4.
• Post-Match Accolades return: Once a match is done, you’ll have a short window to vote for the teammate or opponent who excelled. There will be different accolades to help the better performers stand out.

Underground has been updated with higher ceilings, simplified layouts, and clearer staging areas to improve visibility and overall fight flow.

INDUSTRIA 2 is a direct sequel to the first game, where you play in the boots of Nora. Unfortunately, she has been pulled back into the mess created by ATLAS just before she can escape the dimension and head back home.

As a player, you need to interact with the environment and craft different items to help your journey. You’ll meet memorable characters on your journey as you progress through the main story. While there are dangerous enemies out there to hunt you down, you can find and upgrade five different weapons with attachments.

INDUSTRIA 2 is a slow-paced, narrative-rich adventure that you can play at your own pace. If you’re still unsure, you can always check out the demo that’s available on Steam.
