When Overwatch 2 was first announced, the PvP Game mode was one of the main attractions for the new release. However, Blizzard released the game without the new game mode, much to the disappointment of the OW community. The August 10 release date will hopefully bring back old players and also add new players to the FPS title, or so Blizzard hopes.

Players who download Overwatch 2 on Steam will have access to all Steam achievements and Challenges. However, to play with their friends who might be using Battle.net, they will need to link their Steam accounts to Battle.net. This allows them to cross-play across the platforms and with their friends.
