Shouting matches with strangers is never fun, which is why Overwatch 2’s ping system may be a game-changer.
On Thursday, Blizzard revealed the elaborate ping system for Overwatch 2. Signaling an enemy’s position or shouting-out choke points will only take a single button press. Doing so will make whatever hero you’re playing bark out positional information and more, much like how Apex Legends does it. Overwatch 2 system designer Gavin Winter claims the development team has high hopes for the ping system’s utility, especially when it comes to cutting-down mic chatter.
