“Development of the PvE experience has not progressed as we had hoped,” says Jared Neuss, executive producer of Overwarch 2, during a transmission. “The team has created a ton of amazing content, so there are quests that are really exciting, new enemies that are really fun to fight, and some really cool hero talents. But unfortunately, the effort required to bring all of that together into an experience that meets Blizzard Entertainment’s quality standards is enormous, and there’s really no end in sight or a date set on the calendar when we can release it.” .
At this point, the development team had a decision to make and was inclined to abandon the original idea of the PvE mode, the one it showed off in 2019, and instead focus on the game as a service through which it will offer players story missions that will be incorporated with the seasons. Overwatch 2’s PvE content will consist of cooperative missions that delve into the events of the game’s story. Details will be provided later, but everything seems to indicate that it will be content with a limited scope and similar in ambition to the Uprising, Retribution or Storm Rising events of the first Overwatch.
What you have to forget about is the cooperative heroic missions, which were the star bet of the Overwatch 2 PvE experience. Heroic missions were going to be a “maximum replayability mode” where players had to defend cities spread all over the planet against invasions of robots, elite agents of Talon and evil forces. This mode allowed the heroes to level up and obtain customization options to face adversity, enhancing their abilities in cooperative play. For example, Tracer’s Pulse Bomb could potentially set off a chain reaction.
Regarding the Overwatch 2 roadmap discovered by Blizzard, season 5 will begin on June 5 and season 6, which will add the first story missions along with a new support hero among other news, will launch in the middle of of September.
