Blizzard has rolled out a brand new patch for Overwatch 2, tackling some major bug fixes that have been plaguing games as of late.

With the success of Overwatch's Loverwatch event, players have been causing a lot of havoc with Cupid Hanzo. This new event turns Overwatch into a dating sim, letting players live out their best fanfic ideals. But, naturally, the event hasn't been without its hiccups.

As with any live service update, a number of bugs have crept in, making life a little more difficult for Overwatch's regular players. Fortunately, Blizzard has been on the case, issuing a brand new patch on Feb. 21. Here's everything that was added in this latest update.
