A big change coming to the game is the First Time User Experience or FTUE for short. Brand new players who have never played Overwatch before will find this waiting for them when they launch the game.
In fact, they'll find much of Overwatch 2 - including modes, heroes and more features like chat - locked off to them at first. The idea, Blizzard say, is to "onboard them more gradually".
This'll be done in several phases. Firstly they'll unlock all the other modes in the game as they play their first few matches - and the ability to text chat in game.
Then the next phase begins that sees players unlocking all the original Overwatch heroes on a gradual basis. They say it'll take around 100 matches to unlock the original heroes.
