Fans of the newly released game "Overwatch" are most likely to welcome the recent reports about its update, which is expected to fix bugs in the gameplay and improve players' gaming experience.

The update will surely add to the intensity and gameplay of "Overwatch" as it is said to include character tweaks, including McCree, Widowmaker and Mercy.

According to reports, McCree's Alternate Fire will now deal less damage than before. Normally, the ability to fire at will against opponents can deal big damage, but now it will be less lethal. Yet in return, the reloading time will be shorter than usual.

On the other hand, Widowmaker will have a completely opposite effect with her headshot. This time, her damage will increase if she connects with her assault rifle, but with her Ultimate, she will need more time to complete the cool down.

In previous versions, Mercy was able to charge her Ultimate skill by shooting her ally's shields, known as damage boosting. This gave Mercy an advantage to ressurect her allies. With the update, it has now been fixed so that damage boosting does not charge her Ultimate skill.

The update also fixes a few things with the game's general flow as it improves the stability of custom games using the High Bandwidth option.

For maps, Blizzard also took care of Dorado having collision areas that block the line of sight for users.

This is a great general update for the game which means that the playing field is now leveled and will help improve overall gaming experience.

As a brief background, "Overwatch" was released in May and has received generally positive reviews, with sites like GameSpot giving it a 9/10. It is a first-person shooter game that has been released on multiple platforms like the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows.
