It's been about a year since release and Overwatch has yet to hit it's
peak. With copies on PC, PS4, and Xbox One still continue to fly off the
shelves. But, what is it that has gamers, continuously coming back to the
game? Poli Games host, Joseph, tells what makes Overwatch so special to
him.
In 2023, developed by Blizzard Entertainment, Overwatch 2 was released, which was basically a big, glorified update of the original game that launched in 2016. Now, it’s simply reverted to being called just Overwatch, which is probably for the best.
The second iteration of Overwatch was released on the original Nintendo Switch, and while it’s still an enjoyable game with cross-play/progression functions, it’s still lacking in terms of performance and visuals, compared to its PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S counterparts. Well, it was.
As of today, the second iteration of Overwatch is natively available on the Nintendo Switch 2, just in time for Season 2: Summit.
The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Overwatch will have increased resolution both in handheld and docked modes, enhanced textures and lighting, up to 60 frames-per second, improved audio and more.
Blizzard is readying a patch to address the issue that the game is still running in Switch 1 build and just 30 fps.
you'd think they'd test it before pushing it live, lol.
that being said, clearly it's not running as intended.
They know it for sure. Maybe they didn't finish optimizing the game by the targeted release date. That's why they released the Switch 1 30fps version first. XD
Nexon has entered a publishing agreement with Blizzard for Overwatch in Korea, with the companies working to deliver services 'tailored' for the region.
The four-part Blizzard Showcase will reveal “what comes next” for each series…
Played the betas at first & they were fun but I still didn't want to fork over 60 dollars for a multiplayer only game.I waited till black Friday & bought it for 30 dollars but didn't start playing into this January,the game is fun...I'm at level 40.
Kinda fell out of after a couple months. A non-story based online shooter can only do so much.
Never had this much fun with a MP game since forever, and I don't like any of the mainstream ones. This one is enough for me
Here's to more years to come 🍻
I've had a couple months I went without playing. Excluding the players that play, I haven't hated any mechanic or feature in the game like every other shooter out there:
-BF, hate WW settings
-CoD, hate the P2P lagfests, no game is every lag free and it's just not fun to have every auto aim/bs mechanic going against you every time you spawn
-Destiny, hated the selective weapon metas, P2P lag like CoD and super slow updates/DLCs
Besides Socom and BF2-4 this is the only shooter I can see myself playing for years and not get tired of it.
had me hooked for a couple of months but then the lustre faded especially since loot boxes are so terrible.
