When Sombra was finally revealed for the famous shooter game "Overwatch," a lot of players thought that they already knew everything about the character. However, regardless of whether or not it is an in-game glitch, it seems that the character can hack her way outside of the game's maps and skydive, much to the amusement of gamers.

According to Game Rant, it has only been a week after the Sombra reveal and players are already discovering an exploit that allows her to basically go skydiving on every map. Of course, while the new hero is currently available only in the Public Test Realms, players still went out of their way to experiment on how they can possibly break the laws of physics within "Overwatch."

Using the character's translocator, creative gamers have figured out how to travel through the air and skydive. However, this bug only works as long as it is done in Custom Games.

The reason why the exploit only works in the said game mode is due to the fact that hero abilities have no cooldowns. This is actually a nice way of exploring the maps, as it seems that Sombra is the only hero capable of surpassing the limits of the "Overwatch" skyboxes and see everything that the developers have to offer for the stages.

Meanwhile, according to Game N Guide, Blizzard will make the game free to play for PS4, Xbox One, and PC users between Nov. 18 to Nov. 21. Gamers who are unsure about paying full price for the game can test the full roster of 22 heroes, along with the 13 maps that will be playable in a wide variety of modes, which includes Quick Play, Custom Games, as well as the latest Weekly Brawl for free.

The players can also level up, earn Loot Boxes, and subsequently unlock a plethora of different options for customization in "Overwatch."

However, the free play for "Overwatch" is only available for those subscribed to Xbox Live Gold, PlayStation Plus and Battle.net.
