Overwatch 2’s lead hero designer justifies Roadhog and Sojourn nerfs, teases season 3 changes

The Overwatch 2 community has been impatiently waiting for meaningful changes to a few of the game’s most oppressive heroes, like Roadhog and Sojourn, since season two began on Dec. 6. Thankfully, the balance team released a patch today that tackles some of the community’s biggest gripes. 

To add behind-the-scenes context to the patch notes, Overwatch 2 lead hero designer Alec Dawson did a short interview today with two of the community’s most popular content creators, Flats and Emongg. Though Dawson wasn’t able to answer all of the community’s questions, he provided some reasoning for changes from the development team and also hinted at minor changes coming in season three, which drops in two weeks.
