How It Works

In Overwatch LevelUp, play a standard match of Overwatch and give your hero unique upgrades over the course of the game. You gain XP passively, but getting an elimination gives you an XP boost, and getting a final blow gives you an even bigger one. Once your XP reaches 100%, hold INTERACT to upgrade your hero. While in the upgrade menu, you cannot move, shoot, or use abilities. You have 4 total upgrades you can do throughout the match: Primary fire, Ability 1, Ability 2, and Ultimate. Each one of these abilities has two options you can choose from.

This is how the Level Up menu works:

• Once you reach 100% XP, hold INTERACT until a message pops up
• Press the button corresponding with what you would like to upgrade (example: Left click to select Primary Fire)
• Read your two choices, and right click or left click to select the right upgrade or the left upgrade, respectively

NOTE: You can only upgrade each ability once.

Console players

The final stage of selecting an upgrade is based on "primary fire" and "secondary fire". This means on console they are reversed - right trigger corresponds with left mouse click and vice versa. This can easily be changed in the workshop, under the rules "Select Upgrade (Left)" and "Select Upgrade (Right)".

Hero Upgrades

There are 16 available heroes. I have more in development, but the workshop can only handle 16 at a time as the current build is already pushing the line on the "script too large" error. My future hope is for heroes to be modular, so you will be able to sub in whichever ones you want into the game.
