The overall quality of "Overwatch" is the reliance on its hero fighters that features a distinct set of personalities. As stated in a review in Gamespot, "Overwatch" features 21 different heroes and each of them has a unique design and skill set.

The abilities of the heroes set the stage for bursts of energies, explosions, and multidimensional fights. "Overwatch" balances the art of trying new tactics and at the same time mastering a single character as can be seen in the "Overwatch" new map release news.

For gamers to access the new Oasis map, they have to download the PTR version of "Overwatch" which can be downloaded for free. Other content changes are also available, like the new version of Symmetra.
