"Blizzard's Policy Change Hits Overwatch 2 Devs' Bonus Pay"
Developers of Overwatch 2 at Blizzard will not receive bonus compensation due to the game's underperformance, as a new policy ties payouts to a franchise's overall success. This change has affected the financial rewards for the team behind the struggling hero shooter, while other successful Blizzard games have seen well-compensated teams. The future of profit-sharing plans and work policies at Blizzard, including the possibility of revisions, is being looked into by the new Blizzard president. Additionally, Overwatch 2's PvE mode has been confirmed as fully dead, with the focus now shifting to PvP despite internal struggles and layoffs within the development team.
