Overwatch 2 came to Steam today as part of a new Blizzard initiative to publish some of its games on Valve's platform. The debut is an opportunity to attract a new audience, but it has also opened the gates to an onslaught of negative player reviews.
Blizzard's free-to-play hero shooter has received over 6,000 user reviews and a "Mostly Negative" tag on its first day of release. Many players criticize how Blizzard has handled the last year of development, from the transition to the sequel to the gutting of its promised PvE Hero mode. The top review under "most helpful," posted by Steam user Ornge, knocks the game for locking new heroes behind its premium battle pass and for having the audacity to sell the newly released Invasion PvE missions for money.
