Overwatch 2’s future PvE missions have reportedly been canceled and the game will now re-focus its development entirely on PvP, according to a report by Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier.
One of the main selling points of OW2 as a sequel, the first entries in the game’s PvE mission offerings released last summer as Overwatch 2: Invasion. For $14.99, players received access to three missions, a Legendary skin for Sojourn, and in-game currency. But now, it looks as though that will be the last of the storyline offerings from OW2, according to Schreier. OW2 is a free-to-play game relying on microtransactions and DLC as opposed to the original Overwatch, which was a paid premium release. The original game spent years building the world and characters with animated short films, and the story missions showed promise, but are apparently no more.
