Blizzard Entertainment has pushed out Overwatch 2 update 3.76 (PS5 version 1.000.040), and this brings some much-needed adjustments to some heroes. Expect a nerf to Orisa and Venture, which are both much needed.

BUG FIXES
GENERAL
- Names will no longer be revealed when blocking someone with Streamer Mode enabled.
- Fixed a bug that allowed non-leader players to select the Requeue button.
- Fixed a lighting issue that caused several sprays to look oversaturated.
MAPS
Hamamura
- We have fixed an issue with the lighting on Hanamura (Assault). This map is now available to play in the Assault Arcade mode and in Custom Games.
HEROES
D.Va
- Fixed a bug that caused some pings from D.Va to enter several 0’s into the chat.
Venture
- Fixed an issue with Drill Dash that could occur when interacting with Doomfist’s Rocket Punch or Orisa’s Energy Javelin, sending Venture flying back at a great speed.
That’s about. While there’s not a lot of changes, the two heroes getting nerfed is surely something welcomed by the Overwatch community given how strong these two are before the nerfs.
