Game Modes
With the introduction of the Uprising event, two new game modes were added to arcade mode; Uprising and Uprising (All Heroes). Both of which play out identically, having a team of four heroes go through a four-stage player-versus-enemy mission all around a modified version of the King`s Row King s Row Type Hybrid (Assault, then Escort) Location England Terrain Narrow, cobblestone streets King s Row is a Hybrid map, starting with Assault and leading into Escort. It is a map set at night in winding map while Overwatch operatives speak to the player via radio. The all heroes version allows the team of four to pick any hero they wish and featuresSpecial attraction a younger Ana Amari Ana "Never stop fighting for what you believe in."

Additionally, the standard version features dialogue between the four heroes in-game, while the all heroes version does not.
If a player`s health is depleted in this game mode, rather than dying, they are `downed` and Morrison announces so over the radio. If another player moves over them in under 40 seconds and holds R long enough to revive them, the downed hero will get up with full health. Should a hero `bleed out` or all four team members be downed at once be that as it may, the game ends in failure and players are sent to the end of match screen.
Stages
- The heroes must hack three terminals to shut off anti-air cannons preventing a dropship from delivering the payload, represented in-game by three control points needing to be captured; one in an underground parking lot near the power plant entrance, one on the front side of where the statue normally is near the payload, and one inside the attackers` spawn on the normal version of the map, in that order. At least one player must be standing inside the control point`s area until it goes from 0% to 100% - if no players are on the point or an enemy Omnic is, the timer will pause until the issue is resolved.
- The heroes must defend the stationary payload for four minutes while attacking Omnics try to destroy it as it comes online. The health bar for the payload is displayed in the upper-right of all players` screens during this time, and if it reaches zero, the game ends immediately. Once the payload activates, all enemies currently alive will die instantly.
- The heroes must escort the payload all the way to the power plant doors, where it will explode and grant entrance. As with normal payload mechanics, at least one hero must stand on the payload to make it move, and the presence or attacks of an enemy will stall it. Unlike the standard escort mode, the payload`s speed does not increase with more players escorting it. The payload`s health carries over from the previous stage and it being destroyed prematurely still ends in failure.
- The heroes must infiltrate the power plant and destroy the four Null Sector OR14s defending it. One appears in the first hallway, the second walks out of the defenders` spawn and arrives at the second, and the last two do the same as the second but stay near where the payload`s destination would be on the regular map. With no other objectives, this stage is fairly straightforward, if challenging.
Once all four objectives are complete, the heroes will be granted victory and the end-of-round sequence will start.
Enemies
- Null Trooper - The most abundant variety of Omnic the players will face, standing about as tall as most Offense heroes. These only have one attack; a three-round burst of Fusion Driver - like lasers from a blaster on their left arm. While appearing in droves during the first stage of the game mode, they later serve as escorts for the more powerful Omnics later on.
- Eradicator - The second Null Sector Omnic encountered, standing around as tall as most Tank heroes and possessing more health than the lower Null Troopers. In addition to a large cannon that fires a horizontal fan of three explosive projectiles similar to Zarya`s Particle Cannon Zarya "Together we are strong." Real Name Aleksandra Zaryanova Age 28 Nationality Russian Occupation Soldier Base Krasnoyarsk Front, Russia Affiliation Russian Defense ForcesVolskaya Industries Voice Dolya Gavanski (English) Alexia Lunel (French)Maddalena Vadacca (Italian)Mitsuki Saiga (Japanese)Fernanda , they have a rectangular shield with two lips on the side that protects their front. Despite these improvements, they both move and turn very slow. Should their shield or the generator for it on their backs be destroyed, their right arm will fall off, leaving the Eradicator vulnerable from all sides but causing it to move and attack faster, all until it`s destroyed. First appears between the first and second terminal during the first stage, and then appears commonly for the rest of the game.
- Slicers - Standing even shorter than Torbjorn Torbjörn "Build em up, Break em down." Real Name Torbjörn Lindholm Age 57 Nationality Swedish Occupation Weapons designer Base Gothenburg, Sweden Affiliation Ironclad Guild (formerly)Overwatch (formerly) Relations WifeEight children Voice Keith Silverstein (English) José Luccioni , these armless Omnics are the third type of Null Sector encountered. Like Null Troopers, these are low on health but appear in large groups. Be that as it may, upon spawning, Slicers will make an immediate beeline for the payload, before stopping, charging up, and focusing a thick orange beam on it that steadily damages it and, during the third stage, completely immobilizes it until they`re destroyed. Because of this, they ignore players under all circumstances; even if pulled away from the payload, they will run towards it and resume damaging it once they can. Something else worth noting is that they lack a head hitbox, meaning they cannot receive critical hits. They appear for only the second and third stages, disappearing by the fourth.
- Detonators - These Omnics resemble massive pressure mines with several thrusters beneath them, and are the fourth Null Sector Omnic encountered. Like Slicers, their only goal is to move towards the payload and damage it, but rather than melting it with a face-laser, these charge up for a moment then go off in a massive blast, taking roughly a fifth off the payload`s health on any difficulty. Should the purple plating between `spikes` on the bomb part be damaged enough, each piece can chip off, revealing a large molten core that functions as the Omnic`s head hitbox. Despite not being human-shaped, they can be slept, pinned, trapped and so on like any other unit. Only appears during the second stage and once during the third stage.
- Bastion Turrets - Bastion units painted and programmed to obey Null Sector, otherwise identical in shape to the playable Bastion and the fifth Null Sector troop fought. Immediately upon spawning, these will walk to a set location in Recon mode while shooting at the heroes, before reconfiguring into Sentry mode and remaining so until destroyed or moved from their spot; in the latter case, they will simply walk back to it and settle down again. These possess more health than the player Bastion and have access to all of his abilities. This, coupled with their ability to perfectly track players, should make them high priority targets. Appears during the second and fourth stages.
- Bastion Tanks - A second variety of the Null Sector Bastion that only appears during the third and fourth stages. Upon spawning in, these units let out a loud, unique ultimate activation line, immediately reconfigure into Tank mode and permanently remain this way until death. Despite having higher health than Bastion⃢₀ₙs own 300, they have much lower damage and cannot heal to compensate. Appears during the third stage and only once in the fourth stage.
- OR14s - An older version of the OR15, restored and used as a defensive unit by Null Sector; the last Omnic encountered. During the fourth stage, the players will have the objective of destroying four of these on the way to the end of the power plant, after which the game will end in a victory. Aside from the small change of having different voice lines than her, OR14s fight identically to Orisa Orisa "Your safety is my primary concern."

Exclusive to the fourth stage, of which there are only four.
General
- Thanks to the abundance of targets, players will usually obtain their ultimates much quicker than in other gamemodes.
- The 40 second time limit for a downed teammate ticks by slower than one would think. Unless you`re a tank, always make sure any nearby threats are gone before reviving a teammate or you could end up defeated as well.
- If the Payload is overrun by Slicers, remember that their beams can`t penetrate multiple things. Placing or holding a barrier in front of them can relieve the payload from taking damage while another hero destroys the Slicers. Alternatively, standing in front of a Slicer`s beam will stop it as well, at the expense of slowly taking damage from doing so.
- An easy way to get around Eradicator`s shield is to have a hero with a mobility ability get behind it and destroy the generator on its back, such as Tracer Tracer "Cheers, love! The cavalry s here!" Real Name Lena Oxton Age 26 Nationality English Occupation AdventurerPilot (Formerly)Overwatch Agent (Formerly) Base London, England Affiliation Overwatch (formerly) Relations Emily (girlfriend) Voice Cara Theobold 1] 2] (English) Dorothee running around it then recalling behind it, or Sombra Sombra "Everything can be hacked... and everyone."

- Most Omnics have large and easily-visible head hitboxes, making critical hits easy to land.
Uprising
- Mercy Mercy "I ll be watching over you." Real Name Angela Ziegler Age 37 Nationality Swiss Occupation Field Medic First Responder Base Zürich, Switzerland Affiliation Overwatch (formerly) Voice Lucie Pohl (English) Sybille Tureau (French)Chiara Francese (Italian)Sayaka Ohara should focus on healing over dealing damage. Not only is the Caduceus Blaster`s damage much lower than her teammates` weapons, but she`s the only source of healing for her teammates due to the lack of health packs around the map.
- Similarly, Reinhardt Reinhardt "Justice will be done." Real Name Reinhardt Wilhelm Age 61 Nationality German Occupation Adventurer Base Stuttgart, Germany Affiliation Crusaders (formerly) Overwatch (formerly) Voice Darin De Paul 1] (English) Patrice Mellenec (French) Paolo Mar.ese (Italian) should prioritize protecting his teammates over getting eliminations. While keeping his Barrier Field is a large part of this, eliminating any Omnics swarming a teammate also plays a part in protecting them.
- Despite her low health, Tracer Tracer "Cheers, love! The cavalry s here!" Real Name Lena Oxton Age 26 Nationality English Occupation AdventurerPilot (Formerly)Overwatch Agent (Formerly) Base London, England Affiliation Overwatch (formerly) Relations Emily (girlfriend) Voice Cara Theobold 1] 2] (English) Dorothee shouldn`t be afraid to run into the fray. As half of her team will be playing defensively, it`s mostly up to her to eliminate as many enemies as she can.
- Torbjorn Torbjörn "Build em up, Break em down." Real Name Torbjörn Lindholm Age 57 Nationality Swedish Occupation Weapons designer Base Gothenburg, Sweden Affiliation Ironclad Guild (formerly)Overwatch (formerly) Relations WifeEight children Voice Keith Silverstein (English) José Luccioni , as Reinhardt himself says several times during the campaign, should focus on keeping his Turret alive and well as much as he can. Despite this, between repairing it and placing Armor Packs, he should stay active and help Tracer with damage as well.
Uprising (All Heroes)
- Sniper characters, namely Widowmaker Widowmaker "One shot, one kill." Real Name Amélie Lacroix Age 33 Nationality French Occupation Assassin Base Annecy, France Affiliation Talon Relations Gérard Lacroix (husband, deceased) Voice Chloe Hollings (English and French) Francesca Perilli (Italian)Shizuka Itô and Hanzo Hanzo "With every death comes honor. With honor, redemption." Real Name Hanzo Shimada (島田半蔵) 1] Age 38 Nationality Japanese Occupation Mercenary, Assassin Base Hanamura, Japan (formerly) Affiliation Shimada Clan (formerly) Relations Sojiro Shimada (father) Genji , are ill-advised to use due to the lack of elevated positions and the erratic movement of Null Sector Omnics making critical shots difficult.
- Despite their molten appearance, Detonators` cores can still be frozen by Mei Mei "Our world is worth fighting for." Real Name Mei-Ling Zhou (周美灵) Age 31 (biological) 1]approx. 40 (chronological) 2] Nationality Chinese Occupation Climatologist, Adventurer Base Xi’an, China (formerly) Affiliation Overwatch (formerly) Voice Elise Zhang (English) .
- While you`re free to choose any combination of four heroes, it`s still best to balance your team similarly to the default Uprising team with one offense, defense, tank and support.
- It`s a good idea to have at least one hero with an ultimate that can eliminate multiple targets. Examples include D.va`s Self Destruct D.Va “I play to win.” Real Name Hana Song (송하나) Age 19 Nationality Korean Occupation Competitive StarCraft player (formerly)Mech PilotActress Base Busan, South Korea Affiliation Mobile Exo-Force Voice Charlet Chung 1] (English) Genevieve Doang (French)Julia , McCree`s High Noon McCree "Justice ain t gonna dispense itself." Real Name Jesse McCree Age 37 Nationality American Occupation Bounty Hunter Base Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA Affiliation Overwatch (formerly) Blackwatch (formerly) Voice Matthew Mercer 1] (English) Boris Rehlinger and Junkrat`s RIP-Tire. Junkrat "It s a perfect day for some mayhem." Real Name Jamison Fawkes Age 25 Nationality Australian Occupation Anarchist, Thief, Demolitionist, Mercenary, Scavenger Base Junkertown, Australia (formerly) Affiliation Junkers (formerly) Voice Chris Parson (English) Stéphane Ronchewski
- Due to the simplistic abilities of most enemies, Sombra Sombra "Everything can be hacked... and everyone." Real Name ░░░░░░ Status Active Age 30 Nationality Mexican 1] Occupation Hacker Base Dorado, Mexico Affiliation Los Muertos (formerly)Talon Voice Carolina Ravassa (English) Emmanuelle Rivière (French)Chiwa Saitō (Japanese)Carol `s hack will completely stun a target for roughly six seconds, preventing them from moving or shooting, on top of disabling any abilities. This works on all seven Omnic types. EMP works the same.
