One of my favourite video game is overwatch. It was released in 2016 by Blizzard Entertainment. Overwatch is a multiplayer shooter, based on a conflict between robots and humanity. In the game's primary competitive mode, players are arranged into two teams of six and compete on a variety of maps and game types.

The video game currently has 21 different maps basically, areas in which the actual game takes place. Those maps vary wildly in size and construction. One map may find players escorting a priceless artifact through the streets of a futuristic African city; another has them fighting over a small piece of territory in a research station on the Moon. These maps are split into four different modes.
The first mode is the assault, or 2CP it has one team attempting to capture two control points on a map within a limited time frame. Once the offensive team captures both points or runs out of time, the teams switch from offense to defense. The team that makes the most progress toward capturing their opponents' points wins.

The second mode which is the escort is another mode in which the two teams alternate offense and defense. In this mode, the team the attacking team has to escort past three checkpoints. Once they reach the third checkpoint or run out of time, like in Assault, the two teams switch sides, and the former defenders now try to do better than the attackers.

The hybrid which the third mode is a combination of Assault and Escort. The attacking team needs to capture a point, like in Assault, and then escort a payload, like in Escort.
The last mode, which is the control. In this mode, teams fight over a central location and attempt to gain control of it for a certain amount of time, represented by percentage points. Once a team reaches hundred percent the next round starts in a wildly different part of the same map. Teams have to win two out of the three sections of the map in order to claim victory.
Talking about the characters, overwatch has about 32 characters. Their health is how much damage the characters can take before can be eliminated. Tracer, one of the characters is a british pilot who zips around the map, has 150 health, while Roadhog, an enormous Australian man with a gas mask and a shotgun, has 600. Certain characters also have armor, which reduces the amount of damage they take, or shields, which act like health but will regenerate on their own if the character doesn't take damage for a short period of time. Characters that are physically larger tend to have more health.
Moving on, damage is how much health the character can take away with their main weapon.
Abilities are where characters really start to stand out, or say what makes them special from others. Some characters, like Tracer, have abilities that allow them to move quickly and unpredictably, dodging fire and attacking from unexpected angles.

Ultimates are game-changing abilities like some kind of power up that are only available a few times per match. While regular abilities can be used every few seconds, Ultimates have to be charged up before usage. Players can increase theirs very quickly by doing damage or healing their teammates.
