Highly doubtful imo. If it comes as a big update, then maybe.

gamer78042056d ago (Edited 2056d ago )

its for the second overwatch game, it would make it more interesting, right now I honestly prefer paladins and its free.

PeaSFor2056d ago (Edited 2056d ago )

A new map AND even a new hero? WHOOOAAA, that's impressive for a game which they are going to sell for $60.

nope,.

CrimsonPheonix2056d ago

Paladins is just a shittier version of overwatch.

gamer78042056d ago

@crimson i just prefer the character abilities and design better in Paladins

PeaSFor2056d ago

@gamer7804, i stopped playing Paladins after 30 mins asking myself: "Why the f am i even playing this crap, i already own Overwatch anyway."

All but officially announced at this point, sadly it's a thing, and it's happening.

Epicor2056d ago

What is highly doubtful? Overwatch chapter 2 (supposedly not "Overwatch 2") is now rumoured by multiple sources. Looks very likely tbh. Most likely it will be a big update to core game (current OW) and alongside that there will be a new PVE mode that will be behind a pay wall (expansion pack). I'm hyped!

Rangerman12082056d ago

Yeah I just saw those leaks actually. It's just that my post was hours before those popped up and I was kinda doubtful before. Now, I gotta say It's somewhat believable. If it does come as an expansion then I wouldn't mind just as long they don't sell it for $50-$60.

BeginsNightime2056d ago

Don't know about that...some of the recent leaks has been pretty credible. If they release it as an expansion then I actually wouldn't mind.

This couldn't have come at a worse time for blizzard. I'm sure this was planned way before the Hong Kong controversy but this won't be received well regardless of how good it looks

TechnoGoat2056d ago

Hate to burst your bubble, but people love to complain on the internet, but at the end of the day they are still playing all the games they say they are boycotting.

Kabaneri2056d ago (Edited 2056d ago )

Most people dont follow gaming news period.

KeenBean3452056d ago

You aren't bursting my bubble at all, fully aware of that. It's no secret though that OWs launch on switch was damaged due to this controversy so it can cause harm and obviously has to some extent for Blizzard to backtrack.

TechnoGoat2055d ago

@KeenBean345 you have factual evidence to back that up?

PCgamer982056d ago

Pve should have been done a long time ago.

ActualWhiteMan2056d ago

Overwatch 2 Chinese Overlord Edition.

Sorry Blizzard, you done f***ed up.
