Overwatch 2 has been sighted on battle.net, suggesting that a beta might be on its way.
The climb continues as a new Hero rises and the fight for a better future pushes Overwatch higher than ever.
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
Welcome to a new era. Follow the first fully-connected narrative arc in Overwatch history, play five new Heroes in Season 1, and enjoy expansive gameplay updates when Vendetta’s reign begins on Feb. 10.
Here we go!!
Just go away Blizzard, I don't care if MS bought you I will never give you a dime, in my head Blizzard does not exist anymore.
Please don't release the expansion pack you have been working on and calling it ow2
This is beta for overwatch league. OWL will be played on OW2 this year so i doubt this beta will be for the public. Its such a stupid decision to make people watch a game they cant even play themselves, but hey blizzard is kinda known for making stupid decisions the last 2 years
5v5 is a no go for me. Game is too toxic already.
