Saturday 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM | Main Stage
The Overwatch 2 Stadium Showdown is here! Join your favorite Overwatch creators as they compete in the new Stadium game mode alongside the best-performing DreamHack attendees from a dedicated Stadium Free-play area. Participate at DreamHack for rewards and find out which team will rise to the top!
Stadium is the new best-of-7, multi-round way to play Overwatch 2, where two teams of five face off in magnificent arenas as they purchase upgraded items and powers to radically transform their Heroes—all experienced through our new third-person camera.
At launch, Stadium will feature 17 heroes, with more being added every season. At the start of each game, you’ll choose the Hero you want to play for the entire match, within a 1 Tank, 2 Damage, 2 Support composition. Following each round, you’ll first upgrade your Hero with Powers, ability-changing modifiers that can completely change how your hero is played. Then you’ll spend Stadium Cash, a new scoring currency used to purchase upgrades to your Hero’s kit in the Armory. With Items and Powers gained throughout the entire match, you’ll be in control of your uniquely built hero throughout the entire game.
The Main Stage at DreamHack is the epicenter of fun and excitement!
From cosplay to interactive creator led programming and fun games. It’s non-stop entertainment, all weekend long. It’s the perfect place to celebrate gaming, creativity, with our awesome DreamHack community.
