Overwatch 2 Includes Big Changes For Sombra And Bastion Otto Kratky While its release date is still nowhere to be seen, Blizzard is finally starting to share some of the nitty-gritty details of what players can expect in Overwatch 2. The developer has previously gone over new game modes being added in the game, along with new maps and skins. However, this is the first time it has gone over specific changes to either Sombra and Bastion. Sombra, the game's hacking fiend, potentially has the more contentious changes among the duo. Overall, she'll be able to go on the assault more often thanks to some serious buffs to her hack ability, which now refreshes every three seconds. Enemies who are hacked still can't use their abilities, although that's just for a single second after being hacked. For the duration of the hack though, which lasts eight seconds total, targets are highlighted and can be seen through walls. Hacked targets also take a whopping 50% more damage from Sombra, giving the character a mean one-two punch of hacking a target then peppering them with bullets. Similarly, Sombra's ultimate has been changed as well. While it no longer disables shields, it deals damage to any enemies in its radius, for a total of 40% of their current health.
