Blizzard says it’s “largely stabilized the game”.
Overwatch 2 will offer players free cosmetics and double XP (2XP) as an apology for a rocky launch.
The news comes after Overwatch 2 was reportedly hit by DDoS attacks at launch; Blizzard has since confirmed that it has “largely stabilized the game overall”.
“The team continues to work to deploy further stability updates, with another patch planned for later this week, and we are monitoring the game closely for emergent issues and bugs,” a post reads. “We’ve been keeping you all up to date on the forums with separate posts, but moving forward, our known issues will be tracked here.”
The news also comes as two Heroes — Bastion and Torbjörn — were temporarily removed from play due to bugs.
Overwatch 2 is a free-to-play title available on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5 and Switch.
