After announcing the release date for Overwatch 2: Invasion over the weekend, Blizzard has now confirmed you’ll have to pay for the new PvE content.
Less for more.
Everyone I know who played OW has been following the news and updates for OW2 but as far as I know not actually playing. So to answer your question, yes… but also, no.
Nah, not really. If they ever come out with some good, story-based PVE that’s worth the price though in the future, I might take a second look. But not with the bait and switch they’re pulling right now.
I stopped playing OW around 2018, but a friend of mine was really into well into this year with OW2.
I’ve noticed they’ve stopped playing after the recent news about OW2 though.
I’m still pretty into the game - I really enjoy its core gameplay. And I didn’t even buy the Battle pass, this time around, as I don’t like the rewards.
