Overwatch 2 gives news about one of the most anticipated modes that was also planned at launch. It’s coming soon!
While the Chinese New Year and the Year of the Rabbit are currently being celebrated with a big event, Overwatch 2 has returned to announce news about a mode that has been eagerly awaited by a large part of the community. But development took longer than expected, especially due to the game’s disastrous release and the fact that the experience was split in two. A “difficult” but “necessary” decision, according to Aaron Keller, director ofsurveillance 2
Overwatch 2 will soon have a new game mode
We are of course talking about the famous single player mode, a narrative campaign that should come at the same time as the free-to-play release ofsurveillance 2, but ultimately took a back seat for a while. At NME’s request, Aaron Keller came to give us updates on this single player campaign. According to him, the team is passionate, development is going well but is proving to be longer than expected. However, there is still very good news in all of this.
We found ourselves in a situation where we were unable to release all of the content we had created for Overwatch 2 before the campaign ended. Development was slower than we would have liked. We can go much deeper now, not only with the characters in the universe, but also with all the big events taking place in it. This is something that is very close to the heart of the team. Overwatch has a bright, hopeful and very inspiring future.
The lore finally got expanded the way it was supposed to be?
In short, the campaign should not only make us discover the great events that have marked the history ofover watch, which have more or less been covered in the various short films that Blizzard has shared in recent years, but also to discover in more depth the heroes that we play. The lore is obviously something very important to the studio. surveillance 2
According to Aaron Keller the campaignsurveillance 2 will arrive sporadically from the end of this year and then spread in 2024. In what form it will end up, we don’t know exactly yet whether it will be paid or free. To date nothing has been decided.
as a reminder surveillance 2 is currently available for free on PS5, Xbox Series, PC, Switch PS4 and Xbox One but only has its multiplayer component already well equipped. Big changes are also expected for Season 3, which begins in February.
