PvE missions for Overwatch 2 have finally been released, providing the hero shooter with something for both co-op players and lore enthusiasts to enjoy. The initial batch of missions in Overwatch 2 suggests a promising future for the game, even though the Steam reviews for the game show that many players are still dissatisfied with the hero shooter. Despite pricing controversies and considerable time gaps between mission drops, these levels offer a lot to enjoy, particularly when it comes to the characters.
The genesis narrative of Illari, the new support from Peru, was made public in Overwatch 2. Illari presents the Inti Warriors, a group that uses solar energy to defend its citizens, in an animation that was uploaded to the Overwatch 2 YouTube channel. Illari admits to having a talent that can benefit her people, and as a result, she starts preparing to become an Inti Warrior.
All the other Warriors are killed in an explosion on the day Illari is initiated to become an Inti Warrior. Illari vows to make amends for her role in the catastrophe as the video comes to a close, overcome with shame. Illari’s skills were previously revealed by Overwatch 2, which made the sun a part of her toolkit.
Illari’s entry provides Overwatch 2 players with a more combative approach to the Support role.
She is also Blizzard’s second successive release of a Support hero after the company debuted Lifeweaver in Season 4 of Overwatch 2. Players liked the animation and the lore developed for the new character in Overwatch 2 in the comments section. Another commenter mentioned how well-contextualized Illari’s legend is by pointing out how significant the sun is to Peruvian culture. The same comment also mentions that Peru celebrates Inti Raymi, a religious feast, in memory of the sun god Inti.
Rio de Janeiro, Toronto, and Gothenburg are the three maps where the Invasion’s story missions are set. Your goal is to combat Null Sector, an errant Omnic organization that attacked Paris at the outset of its global takeover. This Story Mission chronologically follows Winston’s Recall short, in which he appealed for assistance in organizing Overwatch. Since Lucio hasn’t even met Reinhardt yet, this story will focus on their first encounters and the events leading up to the invasion.
You can now choose your hero, and your PvE team’s AI has been improved so that a bot can now play in a player’s place when you first load the game. These are the two most notable changes.
The Overwatch 2: Invasion Bundle, which costs $15, must be purchased to unlock story missions. This gives you access to the story missions for the duration of the season and permanently afterward, 1000 Overwatch Coins, the new Sojourn Legendary skin, and after completing Story Mission Challenges, permanent access to Sojourn as a playable hero for new players.
