Overwatch 2 teases "groundbreaking PvP gameplay changes" as Marvel Rivals dominates charts — here's when they're coming

Overwatch 2.

Blizzard Entertainment's free-to-play PvP hero shooter Overwatch 2 has gone through something of a significant rough patch lately, with overall player engagement and interest seemingly lower than it's been in the game's past. Today, however, the studio revealed that it's planning to shake things up with "groundbreaking PvP gameplay changes" soon, and will go over what these are in an Overwatch 2 Spotlight livestream on YouTube and Twitch that's scheduled for February 12, 2025 at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. GMT.

In Blizzard's official announcement post, it noted that "in 2025, Overwatch 2 is going to be packed with groundbreaking changes to the PvP experience that will be unlike anything you’ve seen before," before going on to say that "it’s going to take more than a blog or a developer update to let you know what we have coming this year." The livestream, then, will give the game's fans a deep and thorough overview of everything the developer is doing to revitalize the acclaimed FPS.
