Overwatch is a multiplayer first-person shooter game developed by Blizzard Entertainment for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC platforms.

New "Overwatch" details will feature a new clue on Sombra and the latest patch update will fix the game's aim assist issue.

Blizzard Entertainment announced a new patch update for "Overwatch" that deals with the game's aim assist issue for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. The in-game bug in question affects how the aim assist system in "Overwatch" reacts to verticality. For instance, if a player is aiming at an enemy, and that enemy jumps, the cursor will go down instead of staying steady.

Console users complained about the issue for so long that they have released several GIFs and gameplay videos as proof that there is something wrong with "Overwatch's" aim assist in the consoles.

Luckily, Blizzard was aware of the issue as Lead designer Tim Ford identified what is causing the aim assist bug, and will be fixing it in the game’s next console patch. It is unknown as to when will the new patch will launch, but it is likely the patch will be a part of the large update coming to the game in September, Gamerant reported.

In other news, a new glitch from the "Overwatch" forum website gave way for gamers to discover a new clue regarding the mysterious and rumored DLC character Sombra.

According to the wesbsite, there was a post written in Spanish which reads “la que tiene la información; tiene el poder” which translates to “she who has the information, has the power” and was previously teased in many Sombra related clues.

When gamers visited the link in the post, it almost gave everyone a glitch, which eventually resolves into a block code. Gamers eventually noticed that the text was decoded into an ASCII skull which looks a lot like one which popped up in an earlier Sombra tease.

Several game detetives tried to solve the mystery of the Sombra skulls which led them to a new website named for a fake TV show in "Overwatch". The Spanish text on this site refers to automatic email replies, and if the gamers send a message to tips@amomentintime.com, an address Blizzard shared with the original trailer including the A Moment In Time reference and receive a bunch of code. By then the trail goes cold and gamers will have to wait for another clue regarding Sombra's appearance.

Blizzard announced a new game map for "Overwatch" next month called "Eichenwalde" and it will be an a Assault/Escort map within the game where one team will attempt to lead a battering ram to Eichenwalde Castle, while the opposing team will attempt to defend the keep.

"Overwatch" is currently available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
