With a group of characters as eccentric as the cast of Overwatch , deciding what to put under the tree each year is harder than holding the capture point in Lijiang Tower . Thankfully, we’ve put together this handy shopping guide to help you come up with the best gift for the hyper-intelligent ape from the moon who has everyth

If you want to make an Orisa more dangerous, a pocket Mercy will truly unleash her. Granted, pay attention to the whole team, but giving her a damage boost and healing when necessary is already powerful. Area attacks are also good combos with Orisa, since her ultimate now drags people toward her. In order for her to cause full damage, she will take a long time, but if she uses it earlier, she can still kill if everyone he

While it probably flew under most radars in favour of Sonic Frontiers , Sonic Origins unexpectedly came along and showed the older games the most love they’ve seen since the release of Mania. While this compilation title should have gone a lot further, it still packages the best versions of four classic Sonic games, tying them together with adorable animated shorts. It may be a bit too simple, and it had some ridiculous, inexcusable DLC, but it’s the new best way to play older Sonic games. Hopefully, the rest of the series will be given the same attention s

Hammond has high mobility and a lot of independence, so he’s a good character to run solo more than anything else. Still, his fire rate is powerful for both assault and flanking. A damage boost from Mercy or Ana will make him a true menace as w

Overwatch 2 news 2 is an upgrade of its 2016 predecessor. Loved by many for its fast-paced and colorful heroes, it continues to garner a cult following. This time, you get 17 DPS characters to choose from, each coming with unique abilit

Honestly, Sigma’s most likely making the naughty list in most scenarios. Although he’s usually being manipulated into his music-based mayhem by Talon, it still has the potential to cause all types of issues for the Overwatch crew. And since most of those chaos-inducing tunes are coming from inside his head, earplugs probably won’t help m

Don’t let the visuals fool you, Gerda: A Flame in Winter is one of the most brutal games of the year. There is no winning, only survival. There is no strategizing, only hope and luck. Taking place in a German-occupied village in Denmark, you play as the titular heroine, Gerda, tasked with surviving and protecting your loved ones. There’s no combat because this is not a game about empowering you to live out a hero fantasy. The gameplay actively disempowers you, in fact. If you want Gerda to use a stat in conversation, you lose a point. She is an ordinary human being and will exert herself. She’s not made for this. Gerda might survive the trials she’s put through, but it’s up to you to see if her conscience will. Or if your values will make it through unscathed, for that mat

Joining the ranks of Overwatch 2 support heroes, Lifeweaver is a unique character that doubles down on healing and utility while saving teammates from trouble using his Life Grip ability to pull them out of battle. Like any new hero, his inclusion also brings an assortment of new skins to unl

After essentially vanishing on her daughter Pharah for years, we think it’d be best to gift her a mother-daughter vacation this year . Some quality bonding time might be nice for the pair, especially if they’re bonding over something that doesn’t involve shooting people for o

I wish I could put this higher, I really do. Overwatch 2 is the most fun I’ve had in an already fantastic team-based shooter in years. The new characters, 5v5, the fine-tuning – it’s all perfect. But I cannot justify praising the game any more than this when its terrible monetization actively ruins your experience with the gameplay. As it stands, it is mechanically some of the most fun I’ve had this year, it could have just been so much m

And to ensure you use the character effectively, you need to use crosshairs. There are many to choose from like circles and dots. Each character excels with a specific crosshair. What’s fulfilling is that you can alter the settings for a precise

The same can be said for support. Lucio, Moira, and Kiriko can keep up with you just fine. Though Ana can’t follow, she can help you from afar, and her Nano will work beautifully with you. A good Mercy can also keep up as long as she can see you, and her damage boost can help you recover your mech a lot faster in case you lose

Colosseo has many beneficial positions for snipers, but the best of them is the high ground window above the bridge. This position gives you view over the entire bridge while letting you swap between windows to see nearly the entirety of your defending s

The cyborg-designed hero wreaks maximum havoc on your enemies. She is versatile and flexible as she can move in many directions on the map. She can help you overcome your enemies in a flash if used properly. And with the circle crosshair, you can rest assured of using her Tri-Shot ability precis
