This upgrade significantly increases Baptiste’s damage output and healing capabilities, enhances Brigitte’s survivability with additional health, allows Mei to regain ammo while in Cryo-Freeze and reduces the cooldown time for her Ice Wall, and strengthens Symmetra’s shields. Notably, Widowmaker has been reverted back to her October 2020 configuration as well.

Some significant rewards for completing these event tasks include an impressive loot box and charming pachimari player icons for fans of Echo, Baptiste, and Sigma.

A total of nine Overwatch Classic October 2020 challenges have been set, and players will have the opportunity to finish them all from May 20th until June 3rd.
