Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future - Dexerto

The Overwatch 2 devs have revealed tests for 6v6 to return and determine if the game should permanently go back to the old format.

Lol. After all these years they’re thinking of rolling back the 5v5 changes. To quote someone from Reddit:

PVE was dropped, heroes are free again, and now 6v6 is back. Blizzard spent the last couple of years turning overwatch 2 back into Overwatch 1.

Edit: See also the developer’s blog post about this, which goes into great detail explaining their decisions over the year and how we got here. Really worth a read if you are (or were) an OW player.

    It’s worth it to read the director’s take that goes with this announcement, it’s quite long but goes into great detail about the motivation and effects.

    I hate the change, but I can totally understand why they did it. Much as I personally dislike it.
