Bastion is getting a new look in 'Overwatch 2.'
During the 2021 Overwatch League Grand Finals, the Overwatch team revealed what changes are coming to Bastion in Overwatch 2 . As well as a deeper look at the redesign we clasped our eyes on recently , the team Bastion’s rework.
Bastion’s primary fire has no spread, so which is good for players with strong aim. The fire rate has been reduced by 50% to compensate for that, but the damage falloff range is increased, so the weapon is more effective from further away.
Self -repair is gone, replaced by a new ability called Tactical Grenade that’s bound to right click or alternate fire. It can bounce off of surfaces and stick to enemies, dealing explosive damage with a large radius.
Not only that, but Bastion has a new ultimate. Instead of turning into a tank, they’ll have a weapon called Artillery Strike at their disposal. You’ll be able to drop in three artillery shells from above anywhere on the map, as long as it’s within the time limit. Think of it as a kind of blend of Configuration: Tank and Doomfist’s Meteor Strike. The shells are projectiles, so you might be able to block or deflect them. You’ll want to avoid them, as a direct hit can cause 600 damage (300 impact, and 300 explosive).
Lastly, the omnic will now be able to move while they’re in Sentry/turret mode. Bastion will be slower in this form than in the standard Recon mode. It’s also an ability with a 10-second cooldown that lasts for eight seconds, so you won’t be able to stay in Sentry mode for an entire round when Overwatch 2 arrives. The damage output will drop by 40% too.
It was inevitable that Bastion would be in line for significant changes. With one fewer tank to mitigate their damage output, Bastion couldn’t stay as they are now. It’ll take some getting used to, but the changes could be for the better, and we could see less of the dreaded pirate ship and bunker compositions.

Bastion is one of the heroes in Overwatch . It is an omnic wanderer formerly built to be a war combatant, who is now travelling to satisfy its curiosity about nature and leave its horrifying past behind.
Repair protocols and the ability to transform between stationary Sentry , mobile Recon and devastating Tank configurations provide Bastion with a high probability of victory.
Once a frontline combatant in the devastating Omnic Crisis , this curious Bastion unit now explores the world, fascinated by nature but wary of a fearful humanity.
Originally created for peacekeeping purposes, Bastion robot units possessed the unique ability to rapidly reconfigure themselves into an assault-cannon mode. But during the Omnic Crisis, they were turned against their human makers, forming the bulk of the omnics ' rebel army. Following the resolution of the crisis, nearly all of them were destroyed or disassembled. To this day, Bastion units still symbolize the horrors of the conflict.
One unique Bastion unit, severely damaged in the final battles of the war, was left forgotten for over a decade. It lay dormant, exposed to the elements and rusting while nature slowly reclaimed it. Overgrown with vines and roots and nested upon by small animals, the robot sat inert, seemingly unaware of the passing of time. That was until one fateful day, when it unexpectedly reactivated. With its combat programming all but lost, it instead displayed an intense curiosity about the natural world and its inhabitants. This inquisitive Bastion unit set out to explore its surroundings and discover its purpose on a war-ravaged planet.
Though "Bastion" appears to be gentle—even harmless, at times—its core combat programming takes over when the unit senses danger, utilizing its entire arsenal to eliminate anything it perceives as a threat. This has led to instances of conflict with the few humans it has encountered, and has driven it to avoid populated areas in favor of the wild, uncharted regions of the world.
In Tank mode, Bastion extends wheeled treads and a powerful long-range cannon. The cannon’s explosive shells demolish targets in a wide blast radius, but Bastion can only remain in this mode for a limited time.
Beside these abilities, Recon Bastion is able to jump, crouch, reload (only when its ammo is not full), and perform Quick Melee . Sentry Bastion is unable to jump, crouch, or perform Quick Melee, but still able to reload (also only when its ammo is not full). Tank Bastion can jump but cannot crouch, reload, or perform Quick Melee.
One purchase of an alternate weapon skin will apply to the Recon Submachine gun and Sentry Gatling Gun of all unlocked skins when equipping it.
Kill 2 enemies in each of Bastion's Configurations without dying in quick or competitive play. Reward: Pixel Spray
Kill 4 enemies with a single use of Bastion's Configuration: Tank in quick or competitive play. Reward: Cute Spray
Bastion was designed before the Omnic Crisis for peacekeeping; one of their designers is Torbjörn Lindholm . [5] In the crisis, God Programs had taken over the omniums and started to mass-produce Bastion as the main force of the Omnic Rebel Army. One single Bastion unit SST Laboratories Siege Automaton E54 was created in an unnamed omnium and had been left in domain in the Black Forest near Eichenwalde for at least twenty years. [1] It is assumed that the last objective of Bastion E54 was attacking the city of Stuttgart at some point during the Omnic Crisis. For a short time before its reactivation, its right shoulder was the location for Ganymede's nest.
Bastion later reactivated and had its first meeting with Ganymede. Although the program led it to its former objective, Bastion strayed away from the route to fulfill its curiosity about nature, following Ganymede around. After being alerted by the sound of a nearby woodpecker, mistaking it for the sound of machine gun fire, Bastion changed into Sentry mode as its combat programming took over and destroyed part of the forest, mowing down multiple trees and scaring its bird companion away. Dejected by the destruction it had caused, Bastion continued marching toward its objective dismally. [6]
After exiting the forest, Bastion came across a fallen Bastion unit in
