The new Overwatch update is huge. And it shouldn’t be any surprise considering its developer Blizzard has chosen to call it a remaster.
Overwatch Remastered is yet to be given a release date. Don’t worry though, the fans can check out the updates by playing the PTR over on PC.
“Patch 1.41 is a remaster and will need a big installation for all platforms,” reads a Blizzard post.

But the latest Overwatch update is already turning out to be filled with controversies, as fans complained that a lot of the balance is affected.
Many of them cited Doomfist’s Rocket Punch as an example as it takes longer than before to max recharge.
Symmetra has experienced some of the most massive changes, as Blizzard has renewed her with Photon Barrier, Sentry Turret and Photon Projector.
The barrier duration is lowered to 12 seconds, the turret now inflicts 40 damage per-second when looked alongside at 50, while the Projector makes a louder sound.
Of course, it’s worth noting that the changes are right now only being tested, so the update might not be very intense when it hits PS4 and Xbox One.
