Blizzard is teasing some Warcraft-themed Easter eggs in that lava-filled section of the Samoa map, so keep your eyes peeled. In Samoa, players will fight over control points at the beach, in a downtown area, and inside a volcano on this tropical island. Samoa, Overwatch 2’s new Control map Image: Blizzard Entertainment Here’s what else is new in Overwatch 2 season 7. The Diablo-themed crossover event is a co-op survival brawl in which players take on the role of Demon Hunter Sombra, Barbarian Zarya, Night Raven Illari, Cleric Lifeweaver, Imperious Reinhardt, and Inarius Pharah, while battling Azmodan Wrecking Ball, Butcher Roadhog, and, ultimately, Lilith Moira. Junkenstein’s Revenge and Wrath of the Bride will return, and there’s a new cooperative game mode coming called Trials of Sanctuary as part of Halloween Terror 2023. There’s a big emphasis on ghosts, demons, and otherwise spooky skins, as the annual Halloween Terror event coincides with season 7 of Overwatch 2. Season 7, or “Rise of Darkness” as Blizzard is calling the new season of content, will add a new Control map, a big Diablo-themed crossover, and a new Mythic skin for Hanzo - completing the Shimada clan Mythic skin trifecta. Overwatch 2’s seventh season will be a big one, despite not featuring a new hero.
