Overwatch 2 surprises fans with a short Twitch Drop campaign to close out Season 15, featuring some exclusive player customization options.
Ahead of the game mode’s debut, Overwatch 2 has revealed all the different Items and Powers for every Stadium hero, communicated via a massive infographic breaking down the unique options found in each character’s kits. While more Overwatch 2 heroes and maps will arrive in the future, and some Powers may eventually be cycled out, this information will be vital for fans hoping to bring out the full potential of their chosen characters in Stadium at launch.
All Overwatch 2 Stadium Powers and Items
Items are purchased in Overwatch 2 with Stadium Cash, earned passively each round, by taking down high-priority Bounty targets or selling previously bought Items. They come in three rarities: Common, Rare, and Epic, each providing more drastic improvements to the hero, but at increasing prices. These upgrades are further divided into Weapon Items, which improve a hero’s primary and secondary fire, Ability Items that improve their special skills, and Survival Items that help them stick around in battle longer. While many Items provide generic boosts and are available to multiple heroes, each character has several unique options that improve their specific traits and techniques.
Powers, on the other hand, are free improvements chosen before rounds one, three, five, and seven. These upgrades provide drastic alterations to how a character plays, such as Ana’s Our Turn AoE Nano Boost, Reinhardt’s Magma Strike lava trails with Fire Strike, or Ashe’s B.O.B. Junior, which summons a smaller, weaker B.O.B. at half the ultimate cost. Unlike Items, players cannot swap their Powers out once selected, making these selections extremely important.

Curiously, the infographic shared by Overwatch 2 was missing the Survival Items for Orisa, which erroneously duplicated the options available to D.Va instead. Unless Blizzard provides an updated image, Orisa fans may have to wait until Stadium goes live in Overwatch 2 on April 22 to see the defensive Item choices available to the Defender of Numbani.
