Not only was it used to advertise the game, but a vertical slice was even put into player hands at BlizzCon 2019. There's really no beating around the bush here: this is a massive disappointment, and I'm genuinely shocked that Activision Blizzard would cancel its plans for Overwatch 2's dedicated PvE campaign experience. In Season 7 and beyond, players can expect a new tank hero, new and returning modes and events, hero changes and reworks for Roadhog and Sombra, additional new cinematics, new Hero Mastery missions, and a lore codex. Alongside co-op missions, Season 6 will include a new support hero, what looks to be a new map called Flashpoint, and Hero Mastery missions. The roadmap also reveals that Season 5 (coming June 13 when Overwatch 2 Season 4 ends) will bring a new Questwatch event, something called Mischief and Magic, a new cinematic, and the return of the Summer Games.

Keller says that there will be both "canon" and "very not canon" missions in the future, with the developers aiming to give themselves "flexibility to explore the universe of Overwatch and its cast of heroes and villains as well as just try new things." "We want you to be able to experience it more often, and with more variety than we had originally announced."Ī new roadmap from Blizzard confirms that the first set of PvE story missions is scheduled to come in Overwatch 2 Season 6, which is expected to begin on August 15. "Going forward though, rather than doing a big one-time PvE release and rather than pouring all of our efforts into these singular PvE releases, we're planning to make co-op experiences and co-op gameplay just part of our live roadmap," said Game Director Aaron Keller. Notably, co-op content is still on the way, though it will look different than what the developers had planned originally. The news comes as a complete shock to many fans, as the dedicated Overwatch 2 PvE campaign was one of the main appeals of the shift from the first Overwatch to its sequel. ET: Responding to the community's confusion about whether or not Overwatch 2 PvE has been cancelled completely, Executive Producer Jared Neuss has clarified on Twitter that while the original vision for co-op has been scrapped, fans can still expect "a lot of great PvE content" moving forward.
