Overwatch 2 Season 20 Midcycle Introduces Showdown Shuffle https://ift.tt/oqV4YGU The middle of Overwatch 2 Season 20 has arrived, and the midcycle is bringing the chaos with new modes, new loot, and new in-game collectibles. One of the most notable new additions is Showdown Shuffle, which runs January 13-26. This mode is going to change which character you're controlling, often at random intervals.
