Each game mode features three separate maps to play on. This ensures the player does not get too bored with the looks and gameplay of each as there is another to play when one feels too played out. The distinct themes, color palettes, and layouts make each of the maps feel and play differently, keeping the gameplay fresh for a long time.

Overwatch combines team-fortress style game modes, traditional FPS gameplay and MOBA-esqe abilities. You'll still be shooting and bashing your way to victory, but instead of picking different weapons, you'll be often switching between one of the many characters.

There are a variety of characters that play completely differently from each other, for example one is a melee basher with a charge ability while another is a super agile character with the ability to zip around the battlefield. Each character has its own strengths, weaknesses, and unique playstyle. Every character also has an ultimate ability that re-charges throughout the match and can single-handedly change the outcome of a fight.

For example, there's Tracer that dual wields handguns, is pretty quick on her feet, and can rewind time when in a tough spot, which makes her well suited to hit-and-run tactics. However, she has poor aim and low health, so you have to be a lot more careful when playing as her.

Another example would be the very durable Reinhardt who has high health and armor. He's able to protect his allies and himself with a projected energy shield while moving at a slower rate. Unfortunately, his only real means of attacking is a giant hammer, so fast characters or characters with a long range can easily outmaneuver him.

As a result, Overwatch not only rewards accurate shooting, but also quick decision making and clever use of your abilities, creating gameplay that feels different from most competitive FPS games.
