Overwatch 2 Trials of Sanctuary explained

Overwatch 2 Trials of Sancturay tasks teams of six with surviving increasingly difficult waves of enemies on an overhauled version of the Blizzard World map. These AI foes will be inspired by the demons that roam Sanctuary in the Diablo series.

With each passing wave, the enemies will grow bigger and stronger. Eventually, the standard enemies will be replaced with iconic Diablo villains played by popular Overwatch Heroes, from Butcher Roadhog to Lilith Moira.

There will be plenty of challenges and rewards tied to the mode, but we’ll have to wait until Trials of Sanctuary goes live to see exactly what they are.
