The leak about the alleged release of Overwatch 2 is becoming somewhat more concrete. There is now information about the possible contents. Players who have invested a lot of money in Overwatch 1 might be somewhat upset about this.
What was leaked? Just a few days ago, the streamer Metro leaked a possible Overwatch 2. There was also information about a story mode, PvE, a leveling system, and more.
Now Metro has once again spoken up with information that he originally did not want to reveal. It concerns the contents of Overwatch and Overwatch 2. Because these are likely not transferable.
Specifically, this means that anyone who has played Overwatch and invested money to acquire a large collection of skins will not be able to transfer them to Overwatch 2. This will likely upset many fans.
How reliable is the information? Metro is considered a reliable source for leaks concerning Blizzard games. In 2018, he already leaked the release of Ashe in advance, which proved to be correct. Therefore, the current leaks are also classified as trustworthy.
However, Metro also states that these decisions can still be changed. This is only the current state of the plans and it is “not set in stone.” Therefore, one should not see this information as a definitive fact.
Overwatch 2 possibly at Blizzcon
What is being announced? The announcement of Overwatch 2 is already considered certain by many. However, according to Metro, no new hero should be announced. According to statements made at the Blizzcon 2018, six new heroes are already planned.
What other announcements regarding Overwatch could be possible is still open. However, many of the Blizzcon 2019 information will be available for free. Blizzcon starts on Friday, November 1st at 7:00 PM.
