Today developer and publisher Blizzard Entertainment revealed a brand new patch for its hit game Overwatch. 

The main highlight of the new patch is addition of the Horizon Lunar Colony. As the name suggests, this new map takes place on the moon, and is available to play in both quick play and competitive modes. This map was previously announced back in May with a trailer.

Another highlight from the patch is that two new skins have been officially added to the game, Oni Genji, and Officer D. Va. While both the map and the two skins were a part of the game's Public Testing Region (PTR) on Windows PC almost a month ago, this marks the first time that either of these features have been made available of everyone, regardless of platform.

The patch also features some brand new modifications that can be implemented in the custom game section. Most notably, player gravity and jump height can new be changed.

Three heroes have also seen some major adjustments. For McCree, Deadeye now begins to lock onto targets after 0.2 seconds, instead of the previous lock-on time of 0.8 seconds. With Reaper, you'll now regain 20% health from all damage done to heroes. Roadhog's head hitbox has also been reduced by 20%, while his Scrap Gun will now do 33% less damage.

Finally, some general changes and bug fixes have been made to the overall game. Players will no longer lose progress on their On Fire meter, your first win won't count as a loss in career mode any more, and Sombra will no longer be able to get out of the playable area on Eichenwalde.

The patch itself includes close to 100 changes. You can check out the full patch notes below:

New Assault Map: Horizon Lunar Colony

Built as a first step towards humanity's renewed exploration of space, the Horizon Lunar Colony’s goal was to examine the effects of prolonged extraterrestrial habitation—on human and ape alike. The scientists’ research proved incredibly promising...until, suddenly, all contact and communications with the base were lost.
