A reliable leak has appeared on the network, according to which Overwatch 2 will be available in October 2022.
It's been almost a year since the announcement of Overwatch 2, Blizzard Entertainment's sequel to the popular shooter. However, while the developers have not even named an approximate release date. Therefore, we met with great interest new rumors.
According to these messages, Overwatch 2 will be available next February. Then either the full version of the game will be released, or beta testing will begin. The announcement of the game's launch date will be one of the attractions of the virtual event Blizz Online . The source of this information is a fan known as Metro. He has a very good reputation when it comes to leaking Blizzard games. Previously, he repeatedly published rumors about the updates of the first Overwatch and about the content of the sequel, which eventually turned out to be true.
Shortly after the game's announcement, the developers warned that a release date would likely only be announced during BlizzCon 2020, but the event was canceled due to the coronavirus situation. Shortly thereafter, it was announced that the conference would be replaced by a virtual event called BlizzOnline taking place February 19-20, 2021.
If Blizzard planned to reveal a release date Overwatch 2 at BlizzCon 2020, it makes sense that due to the cancellation of the event, the attendee decided to delay this announcement for BlizzOnline.
Recall that Overwatch 2 Coming to PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. Only those hardware platforms have been confirmed for now, but we'd be surprised if the game didn't also make the jump to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.
