Overwatch 2

Business Model: Free-to-Play

Platforms: PC, PS4, XONE, PS5, XSX, Switch

There has been a lot of confusion around Overwatch 2. For a long time, Blizzard couldn't precisely define this creation. Finally, an update to the original Overwatch arrived, which brought quite a few visual changes as well as some other new features. The biggest change was the transition of the game buy-to-play to free-to-play. This allowed every player, regardless of platform, to jump right into the fun.

It's worth noting that people using the free version must unlock old characters by way of progressing in the game. We have a limited pool of heroes to start with, unlike the owners of the original. However, everyone gains new heroes on the same terms, i.e. by playing. Which is way more fun when we play with friends, and fortunately, Overwatch 2 offers full cross-play.

Platforms: PC, PS5, XSX, Switch

Games from the Pokemon series are the bread and butter of Nintendo devices. Fortunately, Temtem lets us catch them all in an MMO format!

Each of them has their own stats and abilities, so part of the fun is making the best team.

The production offers PvE and PvP clashes, as well as a rich roster of creatures. Catching the best ones and training them properly will take a lot of time. Fortunately, you can spice it up by playing with your friends regardless of platform.
