Fans of the team-based multiplayer first-person shooter video game "Overwatch" would be glad to know that the studio is working on the upcoming PTR patch for the PC version of the game. While it will be addressing some improvements on the game's characters, the PTR won't involve Symmetra.
According to Gamespot, "Overwatch" principal designer Geoff Goodman took to the game's forums to discuss the upcoming PTR patch that won't involve Symmetra. The team promised, however, that the upcoming PTR patch will deliver "more significant hero changes." Goodman wrote that while they do not have enough time to test various iterations of changes, they are looking to try out new things to find out what's fun and what works and then iterate from there.
The upcoming PTR patch that won't involve Symmetra is set for a release this week. "Overwatch" fans may be disappointed to know that the character won't be included in the patch changes. Goodman wrote that while they didn't have time to address changes to her character because these changes "ended up being much more significant," they're still hoping to address her character very soon.
In other "Overwatch" news, it seems that fans are still waiting for Sombra's arrival in the ARG. According to IGN, Blizzard Entertainment has been dropping clues as to when Sobra is arriving, but two months later, still no definite word.
