Overwatch Wrecking Ball

With the release of Wrecking Ball, Overwatch’s newest hero, now isn’t the worst time to try out the hero shooter (especially if you like Gravitons and dragons). To that effect, Blizzard Entertainment’s latest free weekend for the game is live as of July 26th, 11 AM PT. Keep in mind that this is only available for PC players.

The free weekend offers access to pretty much everything in the game, from Quick Play and Custom Games to Arcade mode. You can access every single hero (including Wrecking Ball), level up and earn loot boxes, unlock different cosmetics and so on. All maps are also available to play.

Best of all, if you decide to purchase the game, all progress will be transferred over. This allows you to continue playing and probably experience Competitive mode, where all dreams go to die. The free weekend will conclude on July 30th at 11:59 PM PT.

For current players of Overwatch, Blizzard is currently testing changes to Support heroes like Mercy, Ana, Moira and Lucio on PTR. Check out some of the changes here.
