Blizzard rolled out a new set of changes in “Overwatch.” This was noticed earlier by several players who have discovered a 500 MB update on their game’s build. The latest update rolled out several fixes and changes in the game. Interestingly, prior to the release of this update, some players reported changes to the game’s latest hero, Doomfist.
Latest Doomfist changes
Doomfist was revealed by Game Director Jeff Kaplan’s Developer Update. He then went live on the game’s PTR. A few days after, with players getting their hands on one of the game’s most powerful offense hero, some of them reported noticeable changes they have seen on Doomfist.
Blizzard has nerfed the hero’s Rocket Punch. Originally, this ability initially propelled the hero forward for 30 meters. Recently, players reported that his Rocket Punch only travels around 20 meters. It is possible that the game developer will make more changes with the hero before it is finally released.
Latest update
On July 11, Blizzard rolled out another game update and released the official notes. The update is now live on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Among the content of the latest game update includes addressing the bug that caused several players to unable to hear anything during a match. This has been a growing concern among players and was even reported by several gaming sites.
