I’m not sure I’ll ever return to Overwatch 2, though perhaps that’s an outcome Blizzard has ultimately made peace with too. And while I’m sure some competitive-focused players won’t care too much, the fiasco has fully eroded my already tenuous relationship with the hero shooter. That leaves Overwatch 2 in an awkward spot, as the incomplete version that launched last year now appears to be the final content suite after all. Not only that, but plans had changed a year and a half ago - something that was never communicated to fans when the game’s multiplayer component launched last October. Overwatch 2 would still get some story content bundled in with new seasons, but the grand vision for a Hero mode with its own skill trees was no more. In a recent interview with Gamespot, game director Aaron Keller revealed that plans for the mode had been scrapped. Finally, I’d have a way to get invested in the world and characters of Overwatch and progress through a solo campaign while doing it. So I was elated when Blizzard announced it would bring a full PVE mode to the sequel. As someone who’s not a skilled competitive player, I wanted more ways to interact with the shooter that didn’t just involve me going on big losing streaks.
I always enjoyed the series’ first installment, but I always wished there was more to it. When Overwatch 2 was first announced, I had good reason to be excited.
