Overwatch 2 queue times explode shortly after the game launches
Not even Mercy can heal the Overwatch 2 queue just after the official launch time for the game. The PvP first-person shooter just launched for the first time in early access, and the number of people waiting to play has exploded.
The servers are completely overwhelmed at launch time, with fans reporting that there are over 40,000 players ahead of them, although some are even having trouble getting through the queue at all. Many are reporting that the game server connection is failing and restarting the search before even getting into the queue to play the game.
