It’s easier than ever to say sorry in Overwatch

Overwatch’s communication wheel is now customisable, making it easier than ever for players to apologise to their teammates. You know, if you mess up frequently in the heavily team-based game. Like this writer does.

Game Director, Jeff Kaplan, took to a new video to confirm that lines like “fall back,” “sorry,” and a “3-2-1” countdown are now available to players alongside previously available commands that let others know that you need healing or your ultimate is ready to go. In total, all 32 Overwatch characters have 26 lines in total that can be swapped in and out of the wheel.

The customisable communication wheel is currently accessible on PC public test servers and should head to all retail platforms shortly. We’ll keep you posted when that happens.

Overwatch is available now on Windows PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Switch.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
