So the recent bad news about Overwatch 2’s PvE cancellation was really disappointing, but honestly it kinda just reminded me that I hadn’t played OW2 in a long while, so I decided to jump in and just play some games.
Queue times for Ranked Any Role is 8-15 mins. Even Quick Play Any Role is giving me queue times of 5+ mins.
I’m in Japan but that also usually means I can get games in Australia and Korea. At launch I was getting games in seconds. Now it just kinda feels dead.
They just launched the new season too, which begs the question if I was silly enough to buy the Battlepass… how could I even go about completing it.
I understand the Blizzard hate here, but I would also be quite sad to see the game just disappear and not have further development to improve it. Is this just a my region problem, or is this common globally?
I assume the executives are trying everything in the book to squeeze every possible dollar out of a near dead community before Microsoft buys them and it’s not their problem anymore.
Ow2 evolved into an exit scam
Meh, Blizzard I doubt Blizzard’s franchises are all that important to Microsoft, knowing that King and CoD are the real draws to the deal.
Regardless, Overwatch 2 is still the 11th most-played game at least on US Xbox so I’m gonna say “dead” is a stretch.
