Many must realize how many people are required to keep those wheels in motion. (Image credit: Activision Blizzard)įortnite has become the north star for all titles in this space primarily due to its staggering financial success.
As the muddy acclimation from the predecessor to the current iteration intensifies, it's become crystal clear that Overwatch 2 was an unforced error that added unnecessary pressure and expectations to the game. It's challenging not to fixate on what could have been and where the game would be if Activision/Blizzard committed consistent, ongoing support instead of pivoting to Overwatch 2. Needless to say, the players who've been eagerly awaiting this mode since its announcement in 2019 are extremely disheartened by the news.ĭespite my enthusiasm for the exceptional moment-to-moment gameplay and engaging core loop of Overwatch 2, I've found my alacrity to play regularly diminished by the publisher's seemingly cynical decision to deliver a sequel solely for the sake of marketing. The team is still promising other co-op content for Overwatch 2 that delivers "canon and not very canon" narrative elements to the game. Unfortunately, the latest roadmap update confirmed that this mode has been canceled. One of the grandest promises, and arguably the justification for the "Overwatch 2" moniker, was the PvE campaign mode set to introduce hero talent trees and long-term character progression.
