Throughout the duration of the Overwatch Summer Games, players can participate in weekly challenges through the various PvP game modes – Quick Play, Competitive, or Arcade – to unlock various gears and prizes from sprays, icons, and even epic skins for Mei, Reinhardt, and Reaper.
Lucioball makes its anticipated return to Arcade Mode, letting heroes “boop the ball” into their opponent’s goal posts at international venues. Visit the scenic Rio de Janeiro’s Estádio das Rãs or the Sydney Harbor to play a few matches of amped up soccer. Want to learn how to play? Here’s how the Overwatch team explains it:
How To Play Lucioball
- Team up to boop the ball into the opponent’s goal. The team that scores the most points before time runs out wins the game.
- Sate your competitive appetite with skill rating, leaderboards, and the toughest opponents Lúcioball can offer.
- Test your skill in Rio de Janeiro’s beautiful Estádio das Rãs, the scenic Sydney Harbour Arena, and the striking Busan Stadium.
