While balancing issues and microtransactions were a big part of the issue, perhaps the main reason behind Overwatch 2's lack of success was the missing PvE elements that were promis🌜ed before launch.

Overwatch 2 director Aaron Keller was pretty up front about the competition that Marvel Rivals is giving them, saying, "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:There is pressure on🥀 the Overwatch🅰 team, and a💃 lot of it is in🌄ternal.

Firstly, it 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:brought back the traditional 6v6 form🎉at, which is now here to stay.
