Overwatch 2 has just released its big blowout trailer for Season 10, named Venture Forth, which shares the name of the game's newest DPS hero, Venture. Players recently had the chance to go hands-on with Venture for a trial weekend, giving the Overwatch team an opportunity to see how the new hero performs live in-game. Venture will also be the firstnew Overwatch 2 hero to be unlocked automatically for everyone without requiring them to purchase the Battle Pass.
Not every Overwatch 2 season is packed to the brim with a ton of new content; some of them end up being lighter than others. Since new heroes are added to Overwatch 2 every other season, the seasons which introduce new heroes tend to bring more to the table alongside the new characters. With Venture joining Overwatch 2's steadily growing roster, it seems like this will be the case for Season 10, as Overwatch 2 is looking to have a ton in store for fans to engage with over the next few weeks and months.
Overwatch 2's Season 10 trailer gave fans a small glimpse at all they can expect when Venture Forth goes live on April 16. First and foremost, the trailer unveiled the Battle Pass theme, Mirrorwatch, which remixes many of the game's characters. For example, Symmetra will have a Junker Queen look, Widowmaker, Doomfist, and Sombra will all have Overwatch agent skins, and Brigitte and Mercy's skins make them members of Talon. Additional Talon skins for Reinhardt, Tracer, Sojourn, and Ana will also be available in the shop, along with new skins for Echo, Orisa, Zenyatta, and Overwatch 2's new D.Va Porshce skin. Mercy's Vengeance Mythic skin includes three color combinations: blue and white, black and purple, and her Talon variant, which is black, white, and red, with an intimidating white skull mask. Players who may have missed out on past Mythic skins will have a chance to grab them from the shop this season as well.
Keeping with the theme of the Battle Pass, Season 10 will introduce a new limited-time Mirrorwatch mode, which will run from April 23 to May 13. Like the Battle Pass, Mirrorwatch remixes the heroes' abilities, giving Doomfist's Power Block a Reinhardt shield and Mercy's staff a damage projectile. There will surely be tons of more interesting remixed hero abilities for fans to discover once Mirrorwatch goes live. Overwatch 2's Season 10 will also introduce a trial for the new Clash game mode, which will take place on Hanaoka, a new map inspired by the original Overwatch's Hanamura assault map. Clash's trial run will take place from April 16 to April 29.
It's clear that Overwatch 2 players have a ton to look forward to over the coming weeks as Season 10: Venture Forth starts up on April 16. With an all-new DPS hero in Venture, a ton of

In recent years, it’s become common for AAA games to hold back their New Game+ modes, often rolling them out as part of a “big update” weeks or months after launch. Well, apparently, that won’t be the case with the upcoming PS5 exclusive Stellar Blade, which will have New Game+ available from launch, and it sounds pretty meaty. In addition to tackling the game at a higher difficulty, players can look forward to learning new skills and earning a bunch of NG+ exclusive outfits for Eve (a hefty 34 all!) We have more details about NG+ below, but first, check out Stellar Blade’s stylish launch trailer.

Various skins available in Overwatch 2 boast some neat details that add to their charm, and the new Talon Brigitte skin available with Season 10 is one such example, bringing a cosmetic overhaul to Brigitte's cat as well as the support hero herself.
