BREAKING NEWS: Overwatch 2 cancels PVE mode

It's official, OW2 was just a monetization update




When Overwatch 2 was announced in 2019, front and center in Blizzard's promotion werea new campaign mode and co-op hero missions designed to be replayable. Then Overwatch 2 got delayed several times,Blizzard stopped talking about the PvE mode, and eventually decided to only release Overwatch 2's new PvP stuff and worry about PvE later.

Later has finally come, and it's mostly bad news.Blizzard announced in a midseason livestreamtoday that the originally planned"hero missions"that'd feature co-op, long-term progression, and talent treeshave been cancelled.

Game director Aaron Keller says...
the decision came down to a "difficult choice" the team had to make: Keep working on a PvE mode whose development had "no end in sight" or scale down Overwatch 2's PvE focus.

"With everything we've learned about what it takes to operate this game at the level you deserve,it's clear that we can't deliver on the original vision for PvE that was shown in 2019," Neuss said in today's stream.

"What that means iswe won't be delivering that dedicated hero modewith talent trees, that long-term power progression.Those things just aren't in our plans anymore.

They are going to keep the short PVE mode they release once a season that can unlock season items but they aren't really made to be replayed.


Now those are all apparently gone, and what Blizzard plans to release instead are standalone story missions that feature cinematics and will "push the narrative arc of Overwatch forward for the first time since the original game release." Blizzard says that story missions will be co-op, but it sounds like they aren't designed to be replayable like the initially planned hero missions

Something is happening at Blizzard, that’s for sure. They pulled scrapped their PvE content and resources from Hearthstone too. They used to have a ton of campaigns.

So overwatch was originally planned to be a MMO, project titan. they scrapped that and reworked it to become overwatch.

then they made overwatch 2 on the basis of they needed some engine rework to have pve
