Overwatch 2 PvP Beta: Week 1 Developer Blog
An update from the team about what we’re learning from the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta!
It’s time to reunite and stand with your fellow heroes. The Closed Beta heralds a new era of epic competition; we’re inviting you to travel the world and experience exhilarating new ways to play as you brawl it out on the battlefield. Dive into action, unleash your power, and spearhead the vanguard of Overwatch history. The future is worth fighting for–will you join the fray?
Several extraordinary heroes will be joining the current soldiers, scientists, and adventurers of Overwatch. Whether you like to lead the charge as a tank, ambush enemies with powerful damage, or empower and aid your allies, there’s a new hero for you–and many more to come.
Accompanying this new era of Overwatch is a major update to Team vs. Team competition: the implementation of 5v5 combat. This change in team composition will allow every player to have more individual impact than ever before and will transform tank heroes into aggressive bruisers who pack raw, game-changing power in each of their kits. Enjoy high-octane battlefield brawls and more gameplay clarity than ever before as you crush the competition.
Additional game modes will join the existing lineup of ways to play, bringing more objectives to capture, strategies to explore, and secrets to unearth. The first to come will be Push . In this new, symmetrical map type, teams will battle to take control of a robot that begins in a central location, then push it toward the enemy base.
Bring the fight to new destinations as the scope of PvP expands. Travel the world, savor breathtaking sights, and clash on the streets of iconic locations like New York City, Rome, Monte Carlo, Toronto, and more.
Get ready to experience some of your favorite heroes in new and dramatically different ways. Shake things up with massive reworks for familiar faces, including Doomfist, Orisa, Bastion, and more
Experience thousands of new voice lines, more narrative experiences, striking skins and other cosmetics, a complete combat audio overhaul, and more–all running on an updated game engine.
The sovereign of the Scrapyard has arrived—all hail the Queen! Deigning to grace the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta with her presence, the Junker Queen is here to brawl with the best and claim her throne above the rest.
Thank you for opting-in and participating in the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta. Please stay tuned to this website and our social media channels for future product news.

Overwatch Wiki is a FANDOM Games Community.
Overwatch 2 is the next iteration of Overwatch .
Overwatch 2 will have an ongoing plot, focused on a second omnic uprising. It will explore who is behind it. The plot takes place over the whole world. [2]
Overwatch 2 will feature both new PvE and PvP modes. An example of the former is Story Experience . [3] An example of the latter is Push . The modes will launch along with multiple new maps and heroes , new HUD, and a major engine upgrade. Overwatch 2 will replace the original Overwatch as an update, and as such, the PvP content will be free for existing users. [4] The game's PvP mode will be changed from 6v6 to 5v5, with the roles limited to one tank, two damage, and two support. The passives of these roles will be further altered—damage heroes will move faster, tank heroes will have knockback reductions (while receiving less charge when attacked by enemies), and support heroes will automatically regenerate health while out of combat. [5]
Updated appearances of all the current heroes will be exclusive to Overwatch 2 .
Overwatch 2 will feature PvE story missions that are set after Overwatch was recalled by Winston . In these PvE missions, players can upgrade and customize abilities. Furthermore, PvE missions will also include items of various rarities that players can pick up and use to perform different effects (e.g. heal, damage, create a barrier , etc.). The PvE maps will be larger than those featured in the original game. [6] The missions will go live in 2023. [7]
Elite units have been added to PvE scenarios. Here, enemy units are altered to give them distinct properties that set them apart from their base forms.
The game introduces a Talents system. [2]
New content will be released reguarly through the game's seasons . [7]
The game will have cross-progression; players are able to merge their accounts across platforms into a single profile. All players, even those on console, must have a battle.net account to play the game. [8]
Overwatch 2 utilizes a free-to-play model. [9] The loot boxes of the original game will not feature. Instead, players can acquire the items they want directly through the game's battle pass and in-game shop. [7] Currencies from the original game will be carried into Overwatch 2 . Note that there will be things in Overwatch 2 that are not purchasable using the credits from the original game. Ahead of launch, any unopened loot boxes from the original game will be automatically opened with players' accounts. [10]
The following is a list of specs required for the PC version of the game:
The game is not being developed for Mac platforms. [12]
Work on Overwatch 2 (in some form) began as soon as the original game shipped. The developers are considering cross-play between the PC and console versions. [13] Reportedly, Jeff Kaplan wanted Overwatch 2 to be a PvE-focused sequel, in order to get non-PvP players to try the game. Kaplan had wanted PvE to be in the original game, [14] but this never made it into the game's release as a permanent mode.
The existence of a second Overwatch game was hinted at by J. Allen Brack in May 2019. [15]
In a June 2019 Kotaku article, it was confirmed that Blizzard staff were being transferred from Ares to work on other projects. Among the rumoured projects they were sent to was a PvE focused Overwatch game that has been likened to Left 4 Dead . [16] While the game was expected to be revealed at BlizzCon 2019 , a French employee had reported that they felt the game would not be released before 2020. [17]
In October 2019, ESPN had received information and a package regarding the information that was to be revealed at BlizzCon 2019 . Among the package was information about Overwatch 2 being revealed, alongside a new gamemode Push and a new map Toronto . Hero talents and in-game items are also expected to be included in the game, but it is unknown whether they will be for the proposed PvE modes exclusively. [18] Their report was later updated, stating that it was likely the game would be called "Overwatch: Chapter 2," as opposed to "Overwatch 2." [19] A few days later, artwork of the game was leaked, showing heroes of the original game featuring redesigns. [20]
The game was revealed on 1 November at BlizzCon 2019 .
In late 2020, the size of the game's development team was expanded. [21] The game passed a "significant" development milestone in December 2020. By this point, the game had hundreds of developers working on it. [22]
During development, a 4v4 PvP layout was tested, along with changing the hero roster to 3 DPS, 2 support, one tank. The developers settled on changing PvP to 5v5. [23]
c. 2018/19, Team 4 made the decision to exclusively focus on development on Overwatch 2 . However, as development stretched on, Overwatch vanilla received less focus. This led to a reduction in content. [24]
The game entered the "later stages of production" in the second half of 2021. [25] In April 2022, the Overwatch League will use the game. [26]
The game entered its alpha phase in March, 2022, exclusively for its PvP mode. The alpha included select regions, Blizzard employees, Overwatch League pros, and a few other select groups. [27] The alpha was under an NDA. [24]
Blizzard will continue to work on the game's PvE content while the beta is being conducted. [28]
The first closed [24] PvP beta began on April 26, 2022, for PC in select regions, with the following elements:
Players could sign up to request access to the beta on PlayOverwatch.com. [27] Not all features from the base game were included (for instance, only quick play is available, as the developers wanted to prioritize making matches more quickly over splitting players into multiple queues). [29]
A second beta will be held. Players who took part in the first beta must still opt into the second, and progress will not be carried over. Opt-in is available until June 28, at which point the beta will go live. Players who purchase the Overwatch 2: Watchpoint Pack on a platform on which the beta is available will be granted immediate beta access.
The second beta will end on July 18. [12]
Concept art featuring new hero designs
The game's heroes have undergone an artistic redesign. The redesign varies from hero to hero, but each seeks to be true to the hero's core story, and to imply where the heroes have travelled, or who they've spent time with between games. Evolutions to the game’s technology, like new shaders and lighting, have allowed greater detail in character rendition, which translates to more emotion via facial features and body language. To further improve the feel of the world, the art team explored ways to push the technology and bring environments to life using weather systems, fog changes, improved cloth, more particles, and sequen
