Overwatch 2 Stadium is preparing for an expanded hero roster across upcoming seasons. Freja will be available after the mid-season update, bringing new gameplay possibilities. Season 17 will see the addition of three well-known characters: Zenyatta (Support), Sigma (Tank), and Junkrat (Damage). Their arrival supports Blizzard’s plan to introduce a balanced mix of roles each season.
Looking ahead, Season 18 is set to feature even more variety with the inclusion of Sojourn, Winston, and Brigitte.
