Overwatch 2 Season 15 introduces a new perk system, giving support heroes unique upgrades that enhance their healing, mobility, and utility. Each support hero has two minor perks and two major perks, but players can only select one minor perk and one major perk per match for that hero.

Perks are unlocked by healing allies, dealing damage, securing eliminations, or simply playing the game. However, swapping heroes resets perk progression, making it crucial to stay on one support to maximize effectiveness.
