"Overwatch 2 Devs Face Uncertain Future Amid PvE Content Scrapped and Bonus Denials, Report Reveals"

Blizzard reportedly scraps Overwatch 2's PvE content and denies bonuses to developers, citing poor sales of prior PvE missions and a new policy tying bonuses to specific franchise performance. This decision comes amid a reported decade-long battle between Blizzard and parent company Activision over bonuses, with Overwatch 2 developers being told they would receive no bonuses despite previous agreements. The company is making major changes to Overwatch 2, aiming to revitalize the PvP gameplay and provide greater transparency for players, while also overhauling the introduction of new heroes and facing unionization efforts from QA workers.
