Here are the Overwatch 2 season 9 mid-season patch notes

After the massive patch for Overwatch 2’s ninth competitive season that saw widespread changes across every single hero, Blizzard Entertainment has quickly released a follow-up patch to fine-tune some of these major adjustments.

The mid-season OW2 patch notes for season nine mainly focus on reducing projectile size adjustments for heroes that were just too powerful after the patch. Then, on the other side, some heroes who don’t have projectiles and utilize beams or other damage points are getting slight buffs to be on par with their hitscan or projectile counterparts.

Here are the full patch notes for the OW2 season nine mid-season patch on Feb. 21.
