Overwatch 2’s beleaguered PvE content has reportedly been scrapped.
That’s according to Bloomberg, which reported yesterday that following “poor” sales of its prior PvE missions, the company “does not plan to finish” any PvE content currently in development, and will instead “double down” on PvP gameplay.
The report also intimated that a “decade-long battle” between Blizzard and parent company Activision had divided management over bonuses. Blizzard had always shared bonuses company-wide to avoid “everyone [wanting] to work on the most successful games rather than experiment with new ideas”, but former Activision boss, Bobby Kotich, had long argued that only those “behind the most lucrative products should be rewarded”.
