So we made the decision that same year to focus all of our efforts on our game already on the street and all of our PvE efforts on our new narrative arc that will be released in season 6.” On the reasons why they decided to release the game without PvE mode, deciding to release it with PvP mode only, he stated that “we couldn’t keep all that content over what felt like at least several years to finish it, and to do that, take away more resources from people who might be playing our game and who might be playing Overwatch 2. Regarding what we can expect, Keller has clarified that “the focus is on the story missions and the gameplay experience as opposed to hero mode and that sort of thing (…) we’re not doing hero mode and the talents and the power progression system”. To do so, he decided to give an interview to Gamespot where he develops his perspective on why they have taken this decision. In any case, Keller wanted to shed light on some points that may have been unclear in the development diary. Something that has now been completely discarded. ![]() Their main reason for shutting down the original game’s servers is that its PvE mode, meant to be played solo or accompanied, would be a huge change for the franchise, adding a campaign with skill trees and a progression through a story that would tell us the events experienced by the characters, instead of simply narrating them through comics and cinematics, as the original game had done. This is particularly problematic when we consider that Overwatch 2’s big selling point after its disastrous launch was its PvE mode. ![]() The justification for this has been that, for the sake of the game, it is preferable to dispense with the PvE mode altogether, in order to focus on PvP, explaining in the process all the content that is to come through a detailed development map. Instead they will add small cooperative missions that can be played for a limited time. This has been announced through a development diary of the game, where Aaron Keller, game director, has confirmed the new news.
