Battle for Olympus is a temporary game mode in Overwatch 2 that transforms some heroes into mythological beings. The event will be available until January 19.

What is Battle for Olympus?

Battle for Olympus mainly consists of a new game mode that pits eight players individually against each other.

Ramatra, Junker Queen, Reinhardt, Roadhog, Farak, Widowmaker, and Lucio are the only heroes available for the game mode. The characters have a Greek mythology-inspired look and some tweaks to the toolkit abilities. Unfortunately, these adjustments were made to make the games extremely crazy.

As usual, players get rewards in Overwatch events, and Battle for Olympus will be no exception. However, this time the Overwatch 2 community can go together in the same direction: get their favorite hero recognized on the servers.

Activision Blizzard has announced that the character with the most kills during the Battle will have a particular statue in the Ruins of Ilios to immortalize the achievement.
