Venture abilities in Overwatch 2
Primary Fire: Smart Excavator
Venture launches a seismic charge from their Smart Excavator that bursts after a short distance. The projectile also explodes if it makes contact with an enemy player.
Ability One: Burrow
Venture moves underground and becomes invulnerable for the duration of the ability. They can also pop out of the ground to deal area-of-effect damage to any enemies that are above them when they re-emerge from below.
Ability Two: Drill Dash
Venture uses the Smart Excavator to dash forward, while also pushing back any enemies that they run into during the cast. This ability can be used to escape unfortunate situations, or help engage onto the enemy to kickstart a teamfight.
Ultimate ability: Tectonic Shock
Venture sends out a massive shockwave in front of them, heavily damaging any enemies caught in its area-of-effect. This can be used to start off a fight, clear a point of any enemies, or help turn the tides in a lopsided skirmish with less teammates.
Passive: Explorer’s Resolve
Whenever Venture uses their abilities, they are granted temporary shields to help soak up any damage that they’ll inevitably face after diving into the front lines.
Passive: Clobber
While using their quick melee ability, Venture deals more damage.
Venture will be releasing for Overwatch 2‘s 10th season, but players can try them out from Thursday, March 28 to Sunday, March 31 during a limited test run.
