In Season 9, all Overwatch 2 heroes will get self-healing

Blizzard is planning to release an update for its shooter Overwatch 2 in the near future, in which all characters in the project will receive a self-healing feature.

Project director Aaron Kepler revealed on the game's official blog that this will be just part of a series of future gameplay changes. Apparently, Overwatch 2 is moving further and further away from the concept of team strategy and mechanics towards solo play. The developer noted that tanks and damaggers will now be less reliant on supports, and supports will be able to focus on their own XP rather than that of their teammates.

It looks like Mr. Kepler is planning to turn a team shooter into a solo grind.
