Blizzard attempts to rescue Overwatch 2 with historical platform change
Blizzard is planning to make an aggressive move by saying today that it intends to make Overwatch 2 the company’s first game to ever be available on Steam following a financial report by Activision Blizzard that painted a less-than-stellar picture of the game’s current state.
Traditionally, Blizzard has made all of its titles available through its own Battle.net platform. But in a post today, the developer suggested it is looking to expand the game’s audience by working with Valve to get it on Steam. The game will be available on Steam starting on Aug. 10, the same day as the release of Overwatch 2: Invasion, which includes PvE Story Missions.
