New hero trial

With Season 20 surfacing soon after the mid-seasonal update for Overwatch 2, we are also expecting to see a short hero trial for the upcoming character, Lupa. Players can expect this trial to go live towards the end of the season, a few weeks before Season 20 goes live worldwide.

The hero trial will provide players with an opportunity to try out the upcoming character and explore their kit. Furhtermore, it will also provide developers with some much needed feedback with regards to how they should balance the kit. In the off chance that the character feels underwhelming to play, the developers can then incorporate buffs, and fine tune her kit prior to her official release.
