The ninth season of Overwatch 2 is coming to a close, and with the arrival of the tenth season on April 16, players can expect some significant changes.

Unlocking Heroes and New Shop

Players will no longer need a battle pass to access any of the game's heroes. In addition, a new shop dedicated solely to Mythic Skins will be introduced into the game.

The Introduction of Venture

Overwatch 2 will also feature a new Damage hero named Venture. This unique, drill-based, non-binary character has the ability to dig underground and re-emerge on an objective.

Even though only concept footage of Venture in action has been released, the Overwatch community has already warmly received the character, creating a variety of inside jokes that have quickly become popular among fans.

Community's Perception of Venture

Before Venture has even participated in a game, the character has been humorously dubbed a "rock eater" by fans. This joke was sparked by fans noticing Venture's chipped tooth in their concept art, leading to the playful conclusion that it must have been caused by eating rocks.

Blizzard's Response

While it may be too close to Venture's launch for the Blizzard team to incorporate the joke into the game, developers have shown support for this creative interpretation by the community.

Future of Venture

While Venture's role in the broader Overwatch world is yet to be defined, game director Aaron Keller has stated that more information about their lore will be released in the future in a unique way.

Regardless of the direction the Overwatch story takes, it will face a significant challenge as Blizzard has reportedly canceled its planned story missions.
