Blizzard Injects More MOBA Energy Into Overwatch 2 With New Perks System
Briefly

Blizzard's Overwatch 2 is launching a new Perk system on February 18 with Season 15, allowing significant augmentation of heroes' abilities. Players can earn and select from Major and Minor Perks during matches, enhancing gameplay. Minor Perks enhance specific abilities without changing their core functions, while Major Perks introduce substantial gameplay changes. Notably, players will need to earn Perks for each hero specifically but can reuse unlocked Perks upon switching back to a previously played hero. This system marks a shift from an earlier scrapped talent system intended for PvE modes.
"Major Perks are about adding new abilities or shifting a hero's core gameplay loop, and described obtaining it as 'a big moment' that can 'totally change how you approach an engagement.'"},{
"As detailed by Blizzard, players will earn XP and eventually select between two Major and two Minor Perk options to augment their playstyle."},{
"Minor Perks will boost specific abilities, but not change how they fundamentally function, while Major Perks will change how a hero functions significantly."}],
