What you need to know
- Overwatch 2 developer Blizzard has revealed that it has punished over 100,000 cheaters since the game launched in October 2022.
- Additionally, the studio has also begun banning players that intentionally group up with cheaters. This has resulted in "substantial account actions every week."
- Blizzard also wants to remind players that using Lifeweaver's abilities to disrupt allies when he's added to Competitive next week isn't allowed, though the developer does note that folks should remember to distinguish mistakes from sabotage.
- In the future, Blizzard also plans to improve its streamer protection so that it's harder for bad faith actors to "stream snipe" content creators and ruin their matches.
