With any true sequel, comes a true line-up of Heroes, and Overwatch 2 will be no different. Blizzard Entertainment’s next title for Overwatch is sure to be a massive success.

Overwatch’s diverse Hero pool of Tank, Damage, and Support characters is vast, and while Overwatch 2 only adds one new Hero in the form of Sojourn, many players may be wondering if their favourite characters made the cut.

What characters will be in overwatch 2?

Good news for fans of the original shooter, as all characters from Overwatch 1 (plus one more) will be available in Overwatch 2. There’s always the possibility that even more Heroes could be added, but here are the confirmed Heroes for Overwatch 2.

• Ana
• Ashe
• Baptiste
• Bastion
• Brigitte
• D.va
• Doomfist
• Echo
• Genji
• Hanzo
• Junkrat
• Lucio
• McCree
• Mei
• Mercy
• Moira
• Orisa
• Pharah
• Reaper
• Reinhardt
• Roadhog
• Sigma
• Soldier 76
• Sojourn
• Sombra
• Symmetra
• Torbjorn
• Tracer
• Widowmaker
• Winston
• Wrecking Ball

The part each Hero will play in the PVE missions is yet to be determined, but as the Story and Hero Missions will be a huge part of Overwatch 2, we can imagine quite a few Heroes will have their lore expanded on in a major way.

There are also redesigns for several Heroes, including Pharah, Widowmaker, McCree, and Reaper, who are going to get a sleek new look in Overwatch 2, with changes to their default character design.
