"Overwatch 2 Overhauls Gameplay with Controversial Teamwork Features and Self-Heal for All Heroes"

TL;DR
Overwatch 2 is set to introduce a controversial change where every character will receive a self-healing passive ability, previously exclusive to support players. This decision has sparked mixed reactions, with some feeling it undermines the support role's utility. Game director Aaron Keller explained that tank and damage heroes will receive a "tuned-down" version of the passive healing, aiming to give non-support players more control over their health pool. However, Blizzard reserves the right to undo the change if it negatively impacts the game.
