Developer Blizzard Entertainment has taken to the official site of Overwatch 2 to reveal the new season. Season 7: Rise of Darkness kicks off on October 10th, bringing a frightening amount of new content and a seasonal theme that is darker than ever before.
“We’re introducing a new Blizzard crossover game mode in Trials of Sanctuary, the Halloween Terror 2023 event, and a hot new control map featuring the tropical island of Samoa. We’re also bringing a massive balance update, including a reworked ability kit for Sombra, and new changes to the Route 66 Map!”
In the first-ever Blizzard crossover game mode, you will descend into a battle against the demons of the Burning Hells in an all-new co-op survival brawl, Trials of Sanctuary. Fight as one of six different heroes: Demon Hunter Sombra, Barbarian Zarya, Night Raven Illari, Cleric Lifeweaver, Imperious Reinhardt, and Inarius Pharah, while facing an onslaught of unrelenting forces in a fierce battle for survival. Challenging bosses wait along the way, including Azmodan Wrecking Ball, Butcher Roadhog, and the Blessed Mother herself – Lilith Moira.
Additionally, Blizzard revealed the new Control map Samoa that makes its arrival in Season 7. Players will get to fight on tropical beaches, villages, and even inside a volcano. Watch out for deadly pitfalls, or you might just be swimming in lava!
