What is that melody? It’s the sound of Sigma and Role Queue now live! Harness the power of gravity and select your roles before the match begins.

Who is Sigma?

Get ready for a gravitational pull like no other – Sigma has arrived!

The 31st Overwatch hero, Sigma is a kind and brilliant scientist who has been irreparably changed by an experiment gone wrong, gaining the ability to manipulate gravity in the process. During that tragic experiment Sigma sustained serious psychological damage, deemed a threat to humanity and locked away for years in a secret government facility. He was eventually freed by Talon and used as a living weapon. Sigma is now live on PC, Xbox One and PS4.

Sigma will shield you from harm, but apply enough force and he shall apply it back!

How Role Queue Works

With Role Queue, we’re updating the matchmaking and queuing systems in Competitive Play and Quick Play so that players choose which role they want to play—tank, support, or damage—before a match even begins. The matchmaking system will then match two tanks, two supports, and two damage heroes to create a team, and upon entering match, players will select heroes within their chosen roles. At the end of a match (in both Competitive Play and Quick Play), players will return to the main menu and select their role before queuing for the next game.
