Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future - Dexerto

The Overwatch 2 devs have revealed tests for 6v6 to return and determine if the game should permanently go back to the old format.

Lol. After all these years they’re thinking of rolling back the 5v5 changes. To quote someone from Reddit:

PVE was dropped, heroes are free again, and now 6v6 is back. Blizzard spent the last couple of years turning overwatch 2 back into Overwatch 1.

Edit: See also the developer’s blog post about this, which goes into great detail explaining their decisions over the year and how we got here. Really worth a read if you are (or were) an OW player.

    Did you play the OG, you could get basically everything for free. All it cost was time. OW2 is just an enshittified update

      I did. You also had to pay $40 to play the game though.

        And now it’s $40 for a skin. What’s your argument? Lots of people already bought the game and were forced into the current system.

          My argument is don’t buy them. It’s really that simple.

            I agree with not buying them. I’m simply saying that Blizzard pulled the rug from the people that bought the first game.

            Nobody is arguing that, I dont buy skins in games. The point is that a lot of people are cosmetic-minded and manipulated into spending large amounts of money on skins and other customisations, the system shouldnt exist.
