Blizzard launched a new patch to the PS4 and Xbox One for Overwatch today, but it’s not the one players are hoping for. It’s simply a patch that fixes some general bugs and a few hero issues, not the update adding Doomfist.
Unfortunately, this patch does not include him for the consoles, but is fixing multiple audio problems. Doomfist was announced a several days ago and has been available to play on PC in the Overwatch Public Test Region since last week.
Blizzard released a developer update video where director Jeff Kaplan explained more about Doomfist, his character design, his abilities, and the potential ways to use them. You can see the developer video below and the full patch notes after that:
