'Overwatch' updates and rumors: Blizzard gives updates that will be available for the game

Blizzard's "Overwatch" has steadily risen to be one of the most popular online games as of now, and its developers are said to be adding some features to make the game even more fun than it already is.

Game director Jeff Kaplan updated the "Overwatch" community on what the developers are planning for the game via a Youtube video. The first thing he mentioned was that Widowmaker's scope speed has been increased with the team removing her animation canceling. Junkrat's traps have also been given an upgrade so that whenever Genji dashes on them, they would be able to catch him instead of getting destroyed.

He also took the time to address the user's complaints on Symmetra. A lot of gamers have been requesting for her to be turned into a healer but the development team is working on something else to turn her into a more balanced character. They plan on making Symmetra someone who can work for entire matches instead of just being a situational character.

Two new heroes are also being prepped for the game. One of them is said to be very far-off into development and is already on the testing stage. A lot of people are excited for the upcoming hero and they hope that the character that Kaplan mentioned in the video could be Sombra.

The other character is said to be in the early stages of development and based on Kaplan's statement, the team is very happy with what they have.

"Overwatch" will also be working on its spectator options, and Kaplan said that the cameras will have new options for viewing the game. Players can now "plant" cameras throughout an arena and switch from one to the other. There is also an option to make the camera focus on a single character of the user's choice.

What's more, the developers are also working on new maps, and there are also options for players to equip characters with voice lines and emotes.

No official release date has been announced for the "Overwatch" updates.
