"Overwatch 2 Revolutionizes Grouping: Rank No Longer a Barrier for Friends"

Blizzard is introducing a new mode called Team Queue in Overwatch 2, allowing players to play competitive ranked games with their friends regardless of their individual ranks. To enter this mode, a full five-stack team is required, and each member can choose their role at the character screen. However, cross-platform play between PC and console players is still not allowed. Additionally, the game's first story mission is set to launch on August 10 for those seeking a more casual experience.
