Overwatch Reign of Talon Season 4 is scheduled to start on Tuesday, August 11. An update will go live at 11:00 AM PT (7:00 PM BST) to add all the new content and disable the Season 3 elements.
The season is expected to last between 8 and 9 weeks, with a major mid-season patch arriving in the middle to bring the second half's content.
Map Reworks
As revealed on the Midseason Championship at EWC 26, this season brings reworks to three core maps: Eichenwalde, Paraiso, and Busan.

New Hero
The season will introduce a new hero, which is expected to be one of the meka squad members. Although we are still waiting for confirmation, D.Mon seems to be the member coming to the game.
Her real name is Yuna Lee, and she is described as one of the most responsible members on the team, always putting the mission above everything else.
Based on the silhouette for this year's new heroes, we can assume that she will have her own mech, titled Beast, and will be a new Tank. Her abilities are still an enigma, but it will be interesting to see how different her kit will be from D.Va's.
The new hero will be fully revealed on Thursday, August 6, as announced at the Midseason Championship.
