Overwatch: Die Patchnotes vom 30. Januar
Nachdem alle daran interessierte Personen die schon vor einiger Zeit von den Entwicklern angekündigten Nerfs an Mercy und Junkrat mittlerweile bereits seit mehreren Wochen auf dem öffentlichen Testserver von Overwatch ausprobieren konnten, haben die Mitarbeiter von Blizzard Entertainment diese notwendigen Anpassungen an diesen Charakteren im Verlauf des gestrigen Abends jetzt endlich als Teil eines neues Patches auf die Liveserver aufgespielt. Zusätzlich zu diesen interessanten Nerfs beinhaltete diese Mal wieder etwas kleiner geratene Spielversion scheinbar auch noch die für Vorbesteller der Digital Deluxe Version von World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth bestimmten Belohnungen, eine Fehlerbehebung für ein Problem mit D.Va und den 4K Support für alle Spieler mit einer Xbox One X. Weitere Informationen zu den Inhalten dieses mittlerweile in allen Spielregionen aktiven Patches findet ihr in den weiter unten in diesem Artikel eingebauten englischen Patchnotes.
Xbox One X 4K support, @Warcraft #BattleForAzeroth pre-purchase goodies, and hero balance updates are here!

GENERAL UPDATES
General
- [XB1] Added 4K support for Xbox One X
HERO UPDATES
Junkrat
- Concussion Mine
- Now will deal less damage to targets farther away from the explosion’s center
Developer Comments: Junkrat has been enjoying the flexibility his double-charge Concussion Mine provides, but it has now become a bit too easy to throw out huge bursts of damage in a large area. With this change he can still dish out similar damage but he must now be more accurate with his tosses.
Mercy
- Valkyrie
- No longer makes Resurrect instant
- No longer grants a bonus Resurrect charge
- The speed bonus Guardian Angel receives when activating Valkyrie has been decreased by 50%
- Duration reduced from 20 seconds to 15 seconds
Developer Comments: Mercy’s recent Resurrect changes have helped in allowing enemies to have more counter play in dealing with her, but she was able to use Resurrect through Valkyrie enough to largely mitigate the impact of the previous changes. Additionally, we’re toning back the amount of mobility Valkyrie provides through Guardian Angel and reducing its duration to overall reduce the power of this ability.
BUG FIXES
Heroes
- Fixed a bug that caused D.Va’s face and hair textures to not load when her Black Cat skin was equipped
