‘Mass DDoS attack’ partly to blame for Overwatch 2 server issues, Blizzard president says
Amid players complaining of long queue times, server disconnections, and errors, Blizzard president Mike Ybarra claims that the company is dealing with a mass DDoS attack that just happened to coincide with the first day of the highly-anticipated sequel to Overwatch.
There have been a ton of complaints since the launch of Overwatch 2’s early access PvP about queue times and disconnections, and players have been encountering error after error when trying to get into the game. Since the game launched at 2pm CT today, the issues haven’t let up and have only gotten worse.
