A new Overwatch patch is currently in development and now available on PTR "Public Test Region", detailing a number of character changes and other new features "Bastion got the most changes".
Mercy, who now becomes invulnerable while casting her Ultimate. Players can also now adjust the targeting sensitivity for Guardian Angel and her beams--a change that's been added for a number of other characters as well. Furthermore, D.Va's Defense Matrix can now block projectiles regardless of the distance they've traveled; there's no longer a minimum distance they have to go before they can be blocked, Also Eichenwalde has been tweaked so that the second gate doesn't close after the payload goes through the castle doors.
To access the PTR, you must have an Overwatch game license for Windows PC attached your Battle.net account in good standing, installed and logged into the game at least once. If the PTR is not available for you, trying logging into Overwatch, exiting the game client, and then launching the PTR again.
This update introduces two recently announced features: a server browser for custom games and the addition of Capture the Flag to the Arcade. Check the patch notes below or you can visit the best character in overwatch for more info.
