Overwatch 2, the much-awaited sequel to the well-known game Overwatch from Blizzard, was recently launched on October 4, 2022.

One of these heroes making their Overwatch 2 debut with a new identity is Cassidy, who was formerly known as McCree. Cassidy is one of these returning characters. Cassidy has undergone a few tweaks in the new game, although they're nothing that dramatically affects the character’s role and playstyle. This Overwatch 2 guide will walk you through unlocking Cassidy and provide a brief overview of his numerous skills, advantages, and the best ways to use him in battle. Read on to find out more if you want to get to know the character before playing him.
How to get Cassidy unlocked in Overwatch 2
The characters in Overwatch 2 must all be unlocked before new players can start playing the game for the first time. Although the procedure is very straightforward, if you want to unlock every hero in the game, you will have to grind for a while. To do this, you’ll need to finish the tutorial practice arena and then move on to play unranked matches, completing which will net you a character at specific milestones. Cassidy is easy to get to, and you can unlock her by completing three games all the way through.
Cassidy’s class and abilities
Since Cassidy belongs to the damage class of heroes, his abilities are made to be employed as offensively as possible in order to deal significant damage. In order to survive and get kills in Overwatch 2, Cassidy will probably need to rely on a tank or support player. In addition, Cassidy now has a new passive skill because of his role, which gives him a 2.5-second period of 25% faster movement and reloading following an elimination. Therefore, for a damaged hero to fully utilize their role, getting killed is crucial.
A list of Cassidy's skills is provided below:
Peacekeeper: Cassidy utilizes this strong pistol, which he calls the "Peacekeeper," as his main weapon. It has two ways to fire. The main button fires single shots that do good damage. The other button fires all six rounds in the revolver's cylinder, which means Cassidy has to reload quickly.
Combat Roll: This skill enables Cassidy to quickly roll forward while reloading his revolver at a rate that is far faster than a typical reload. This skill can be used in midair.
Magnetic Grenade: Cassidy will launch a magnetic grenade that can zero down on surrounding foes and detonate after a brief period of time. In the event that the grenade sticks to foes, its damage is significantly increased.
Deadeye: With his ultimate power, Deadeye, Cassidy is able to automatically target every enemy in his line of sight. When the attack button is pressed, Cassidy will draw his pistol and shoot all targets, dealing each of them up to 80 damage. All of Cassidy's skills in Overwatch 2 are listed here.

Tips for Cassidy
As a damage hero, Cassidy can deal out lots of damage with just his handgun, but it is better suited for close-or mid-range conflicts because long-range shots have a considerable damage reduction. To be precise and do the maximum damage to a single target, just use the alternate firing option at close range. Use the Combat Roll to lessen incoming damage because it has a 50% damage reduction during the roll.
When time is of the essence, it is also great for quickly changing positions and reloading your revolver. Avoid using magnetic grenades as simple AOE assaults because they work best when they adhere to targets. Using Deadeye can be disrupted by opponent abilities that move your character, so it is best used while flanking or moving covertly around the battlefield. Use it while the antagonist is busy assaulting other characters or in open locations where they cannot hide behind cover to avoid the gunshots.
