"Overwatch" is now geared up with new updates and features. Apart from the essentially new features for PS4, Xbox One and PC, there are several other PTR updates that make the revamped game a must-try. Added to it is the special floating health bar feature. So check out what is so special!

Blizzard added character health bars to the "Overwatch" game recently. Players can see it when they are viewing the action in spectator mode. Game analysts believe that this is an important addition from Blizzard as the game developer wants to increase the popularity of the game in the eSports category.   

According to Express.co.uk, the ability to see the health bars while viewing helps the viewers to find out the exact winning team.  And this particular aspect enhances the watching accessibility of the game. The upcoming "Overwatch" PTR update that will come out for all the PS4, Xbox One, and PC players almost simultaneously will also have many other major changes.

Another added feature is the streamlining of the process related to more payment options. Due to this, it has become easier for the players to purchase Loot boxes. Apart from these features, the regular ones include the usual bug fixes, character, and map improvements.

Reports indicate that Blizzard is also planning to work a solution to fix a game-breaking bug troubling the "Overwatch" players. If that happens, it will be one of the happiest things for the game fans. The Chicago-based game developer it seems is eager to please its fans.

That is why Blizzard has come out with such special features all at once. According to Segment Next,  it is difficult to read a live "Overwatch" game in the absence of the health bars. However their addition is certainly a step in the right direction, says the source.
