The mid-season update for Overwatch 2 Season 15 is shaping up to be a game-changer, featuring a brand-new LE SSERAFIM crossover, crucial hero and Perk balancing, and exciting new content! 🛠️🎮
🗓️ When is the OW2 Mid-Season 15 Update?
📅 Mark your calendars! The Overwatch 2 mid-season update drops on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, exactly four weeks after Season 15’s launch.
Notably, this update coincides with the official release date of the highly anticipated LE SSERAFIM crossover skins, confirming when players can expect the patch.
🎵 LE SSERAFIM x Overwatch 2 – Second Crossover Event
After being teased during OW Spotlight, Overwatch 2 is bringing another LE SSERAFIM collaboration, featuring five brand-new hero skins inspired by the K-pop group’s latest album, HOT. 🔥🎤
The following heroes will receive exclusive LE SSERAFIM skins:
⭐ Juno
⭐ Illari
⭐ D.Va
⭐ Mercy
⭐ Ashe
🛍️ These cosmetics will be available in the store, along with Blue Flame variants of the original LE SSERAFIM skins released at the end of 2024.
⚖️ Perk Balancing & Hero Adjustments
The Perks system, introduced in Season 15, drastically changed Overwatch 2 gameplay, making some abilities overpowered and must-use picks. To restore balance, Blizzard is rolling out a major Perk rework before introducing new ones in Season 16.
🔧 Bastion Perk Rework Confirmed
Hero Designer Scott Kennedy revealed in a Reddit AMA that Bastion’s self-heal will now have a resource meter.
🚨 Current Issue: Bastion can heal himself infinitely, making him extremely difficult to eliminate unless the entire enemy team focuses on him.
✅ Update Fix: After the patch, Bastion’s self-repair will be limited and recharge over time, similar to Roadhog’s healing mechanic.
🔮 More Perk changes are expected, but Blizzard has yet to release full details.
🆕 What Else is Coming in the Mid-Season Patch?
