Overwatch Update Adds Brigitte, Nerfs Sombra

A new Overwatch update is now available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One and the main addition is new hero Brigitte, the newest Support character.

But Overwatch also included other changes and fixes, including a nerf to Sombra.

Blizzard is addressing frustrations associated with Sombra by putting her Hack ability on a two-second cooldown when it’s interrupted by damage, and addressing her line-of-sight being broken while casting Hack.

There are full details about the new patch on Blizzard’s official website.

“We’re also removing the 0.1 second window of time during a hack where it couldn’t be canceled via line of sight or with other abilities including Tracer’s Recall and Zarya’s Particle Barrier, which was originally put in place so the hack wouldn’t be interrupted by small objects such as light posts. We’ve implemented a separate fix for that issue, so she should still be unaffected by those small objects.”
