Overwatch’s Reign Of Talon Sees the Addition of 5 New Heroes
Overwatch players are getting treated in the upcoming season with five new heroes on release. Previously, Blizzard only released a handful of heroes in a year. For Season 1 of Reign of Terror, Blizzard is adding one tank, two DPS, and two supports to the game. One of the new releases, Anran, will be having her in-game trial later today. The trial will end upon the release of Season 1 of Overwatch.
