New updates for "Overwatch" will feature new patch details for the PC and Orisa now available in Competitive Play.

Blizzard Entertainment launched a patch update for "Overwatch" in the PC platform which fixed several bugs for the new character Orisa during matches.

There is also a fixes on Sombra's "BOOP" line and the prevention of seeing Damage Amplified stat from appearing in the scoreboard at the end of a game, Express reported.

In addition, Blizzard Entertainment recently conducted a PTR update on "Overwatch" and gaming fans noticed that King’s Row has seen a revamp, however, there have been no major route changes that should concern players.

Instead, the development team are looking to do some serious visual spruce ups as principal level designer Dave Adams confirmed the update. Adams stated that London was one of the earliest maps and some of the tech they have used to build maps and optimise for performance has evolved.

Meanwhile, gaming fans will be happy hear that Blizzard Entertainment tweeted an announcement that Orisda is now available in "Overwatch's" Competitive Play.

Blizzard explained that Orisa was delayed in Competitive Mode during her initial release to "Overwatch's" roster as they want players to be more familiar with the character before they engage in a more competitive gameplay.

Orisa is essentially a mix of several heroes in "Overwatch" as this Tank character can be unstoppable in both offense and has great defensive capabilities, VG 24/7 reported.

Previous reports revealed that Blizzard could be working on new DLC skins for "Overwatch" characters and they might showcase them during this year's BlizzCon event.

There is also a new reporting system being implemented in "Overwatch" that allows players to state their reasons for the making their reports as it pops out two explanations.

For instance, it will say “ABUSIVE CHAT IS:” and then rolls through a list that cites hateful, obscene or harassing chat. Below, it explicitly offers “ABUSIVE CHAT IS NOT:” and details that simply asking a player to switch heroes or strategies is not abusive in "Overwatch."

The new reporting system could improve how players cite their complaints from other players during matches and offer solutions in maintaining an honest and harmonious gameplay experience to both new and old "Overwatch" players.

"Overwatch" is currently available for the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
