Since being revealed in 2019, Overwatch fans have been thirsty to learn more about the highly anticipated sequel. It’s been a slow drip with Blizzard dropping bits and pieces until the Xbox & Bethesda Game Showcase.

The blog post didn’t give away too many details about the reveal event, but you can be sure we will learn about new heroes and returning fan favorites. Fans met one new hero, the Junker Queen, so expect to learn more about the tank-class character.
We also expect to learn more about the new seasonal content road map, the new story missions, and much more when the reveal event goes down Thursday, June 16, at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST.
You can watch the reveal event on the PlayOverwatch Youtube(opens in new tab) and Twitch(opens in new tab) channels.
