His work in the agency, albeit brief, focused mainly on rapid offensive operations and the coordination and command of the rest of the team, ensuring that “everyone returned safely” after each mission.

What we know about the release date of Overwatch 2

The game was originally scheduled for November 2021, mainly due to major internal problems that the company had been dealing with for months, but was postponed back to an unspecified date in the “near future”. Unfortunately, after almost half a year, we still have no word on a specific release date.

The fact that we finally have the first closed beta version suggests that the game should already be close to the final release, so an official launch could be expected by the end of the year.
