"Concerns Mount Over Overwatch 2's Story Missions"

Overwatch 2's story missions, a key feature promised at its 2019 announcement, have faced development challenges and uncertainties, with only one set of missions released since the game's launch in October 2022. Former developers revealed concerns about the prioritization of PvP over PvE content, internal struggles with meeting "Blizzard Quality" standards, and the impact of January Xbox layoffs on the team working on the story missions. Despite the team's desire for the story missions and PvE content to succeed, doubts remain about their future as the game's competitive suite takes priority.
