Blizzard Entertainment will start '12 Season: New Frontiers' on the 21st, adding a new supporting hero 'Juno', two new battlefields, and a new game mode, a clash.
At the start of the 12th season, Juno, a new support hero from far away space and Mars, will jump into the battlefield, including the competition, offering healing and attack at the same time. Versatile Mediblaster and Pulsa torpedoes can heal allies while also damaging enemies, and hyper-ring technology increases the team's speed of movement, enabling them to engage and retreat quickly. In addition, it has the characteristic of being able to travel very agile on the battlefield with Martian overboots and strengthening our allies by using the ultimate orbital ray to help us break through fierce fighting and solid defense lines.
In addition, in this season, you can turn the battlefield into a battlefield of ancient gods by unlocking the hero skin of the 'Myth Anubis Ripper' symbolizing the anger of the God of Death and the Sun God. In addition, you can get five legendary hero skins, including 'Bast Doomfist', 'Oni Ana', 'Tot Iliari', 'Dorothy Ash', 'Captain Sigma', up to 80 myth prisms, 20% boost experience throughout the season, and an additional 500 credits.
In addition, a new battle mode 'Clash' will be introduced in earnest as new content. In Daejeon mode, where the goal is to occupy five bases, or the final base, during a game, both teams must quickly occupy and defend the five bases placed on a symmetrical battlefield and seek victory. Through the clash, you can feel a more dynamic play experience through various revival points and simplified battlefield routes, Blizzard said.
Two new battlefields are also coming for the clash. The battlefield 'Temple of Anubis' newly decorated Anubis, the first battlefield of Overwatch, can be added to confront the dangerous artificial intelligence that caused the Omnic crisis sealed in the Anubis throne by returning to ancient Egypt. You can also experience 'Hanaoka', a new battlefield that remade Hanamura, a map of memories, in time for the clash.
The competition will also be updated completely anew. At the start of the season, the initialization of the rating will be applied, and the distribution of the upper and lower grades will be adjusted, giving everyone a chance to re-upgrade the competition. The newly introduced wave attack resurgence system is expected to adjust the team members' resurgence time to induce more strategic team battles and shorten the average resurgence time, and flashpoint battlefields can quickly return to combat by adding speed amplification pads at the exit of the battle preparation room. These pads increase speed for a short time, and the effect disappears when you go into battle.
In addition, in order to provide a personalized experience of finding opponents, the function of not meeting as a team will be expanded to three fixed slots and 12 recent slots. The fixed slot is permanently operational, and the latest slot is valid for 7 days. On weekends approaching the end of the season, a new event 'Drive' is also introduced. If you win the role-fixing competition, you can also earn drive points and earn battletags signatures with various rewards.
