Movement speed describes how fast a hero is travelling.

Base movement speed

The base movement speed of a hero when moving forwards or sideways is 5.5 meters per second, except for Tracer, Genji, and Anran who move at 6 meters per second, approximately 9.1% faster than most heroes. When moving directly backwards, the base speed is 90% of the forward speed (4.95 for most heroes; 5.4 for Tracer, Genji, and Anran), and when moving back diagonally, the base speed is 93.333% of the forward speed (5.133 for most heroes; 5.6 for Tracer, Genji, and Anran). While crouching, the base movement speed is 3 meters per second for all heroes (except D.Va's mech form, Wrecking Ball, and Jetpack Cat, as they can't crouch at all.), regardless of direction.

The following abilities are examples of ones that alter the hero's base movement speed:

• Echo during Flight has base movement speed of 8 meters per second, regardless of direction.
• Sigma during Gravitic Flux has base movement speed of 7.15 meters per second, regardless of direction.
• Wrecking Ball in his Roll mode has base movement speed of 10 meters per second, regardless of direction.

Jumping

Heroes can jump, granting them a vertical impulse of 5.72 m/s. Heroes can reach a height of 0.98 meters before they start moving downwards. With few exceptions, heroes can only jump while on ground.

Falling

When a hero is in air they start accelerating towards ground, until they reach the maximum falling speed of 30 m/s. The falling acceleration is not constant but decreases as the hero gets closer to the maximum speed. Under normal gravity, heroes start accelerating at rate of 17.5 m/s² and take approximately 6.4 seconds to reach the maximum falling speed. Modified gravity conditions cause the heroes initial acceleration to change, but the maximum falling speed remains the same. Heroes do not take fall damage upon hitting ground from any height.

Modifiers and stacking

Movement speed modifiers are effects that alter the hero's horizontal movement speed by a percentage of their base movement speed. There are three categories to speed modifiers: speed buffs, slow effects, and movement penalties. Each category stacks additively with themselves and are all added together before being applied to the current base movement speed. However, self-inflicted movement penalties and enemy slow effects do not stack and the greater of the two overrides the other. Movement speed buffs' stacking is capped at +75%. Abilities that by itself grant a speed buff greater than this are generally excluded from the calculation.

For example, suppose Reinhardt and Lúcio are on a team and Symmetra is on the other:

1. Reinhardt walks forward in Lúcio's speed aura (+25% buff). His speed is 125% of his base speed.
2. Symmetra places down one turret (−20% slow). Reinhardt's speed is now 105% of his base speed.
3. Reinhardt uses his barrier (−30% penalty). His speed is now 95% of his base speed because Barrier Field's movement penalty overrides the turret's slow.
4. Symmetra places a second turret (−20% ⟶ −40% slow). Reinhardt's speed is now 85% of his base speed, regardless of if he uses his barrier or not, because the two turrets' slow overrides Barrier Field's movement penalty.
5. Symmetra places a third turret (−20% ⟶ −60% slow) and Lúcio amps up his speed song (+25% ⟶ +60% buff). These cancel each other out and Reinhardt's final movement speed is the same as his base speed.

The only known exception is with D.Va's Fusion Cannons' movement penalty, which does not apply during Boosters.

Movement abilities

Movement abilities are abilities that grant the hero a short burst of movement. Movement abilities usually limit the ability to control the hero while they are used. In addition to crowd control effects that prevent abilities from being used altogether, movement abilities also cannot be used if the hero is affected by mobility lock status effect, applied by abilities such as Junkrat's Steel Trap or Cassidy's Flashbang. Being hit by these effects will also interrupt any active movement abilities. Movement abilities that grant free flight will be temporarily disabled when affected by mobility lock, but will not be fully interrupted by these effects.

Lifeweaver's Life Grip interacts with movement abilities in two ways: If Life Grip is used on an ally that is in the middle of using a movement ability, it will be interrupted when the pull begins. On the other hand, using a movement ability, while being pulled by Life Grip, will allow the target to interrupt the pull. All movement abilities, including passive abilities, are negated by Hack and Hindered.
