2025-07-17 07:10:42

Blizzard's Overwatch 2 has launched an exciting new limited-time game mode called Hacks & Hijinx, available from July 15 to July 28. This mode offers players a fresh and unpredictable gameplay experience unlike anything else in Overwatch 2.

Overwatch 2's Limited-Time Mode

The mode features 16 unique modifiers that are randomly combined in each match, creating wild and unexpected scenarios. From shrinking heroes to 50% of their size to enabling cloaking when crouching, Hacks & Hijinx promises to keep players on their toes with its ever-changing gameplay dynamics.

Players can earn special rewards by participating in this limited-time event, including:

  • 55,000 Battle Pass XP
  • An 8-bit themed collection (spray, weapon charm, and player icon)
  • Epic Loot Box
  • Exclusive "Hackerman" title

Some of the most interesting modifiers include:

  • MINI MAXING: Heroes become 50% smaller with 30% less health
  • LIE LOW: Crouching makes players invisible
  • VAMPIRIC HEALING: Life steal replaces health regeneration
  • SUPER JUMP: Jump height increases by 200%
  • EXPLOSIVE: Defeated heroes explode, damaging nearby players

This new mode arrives after recent adjustments to Overwatch 2's Stadium, which included hero performance tweaks and queue time improvements. Hacks & Hijinx offers a perfect diversion for players looking for something different from the standard gameplay formula.
