The thing is, Overwatch 2 is the perfect opportunity for Blizzard to turn things around. I've long maintained that a 6v6 (now 5v5) team shooter was an awkward fit for the world Blizzard was trying to build\u2014but with co-op missions that will presumably only grow in number over the game's lifespan, Overwatch 2 has so much potential to reignite its lapsed fanbase.<\/p>\n
Sure, mission set-ups will give us explicit stories about where the war against the omnics is at. But I want to see Blizzard use this framework to escalate tensions and relationships within the game's roster. Explore what it really means for Cole Cassidy and Ashe to be working together after all this time, or dive into the knight\/squire dynamic between Reinhardt and Brigitte. And, more importantly, to let these dynamics change as the story goes on\u2014to let romances blossom, rivalries form, and see old enemies become reluctant friends.<\/p>\n
Overwatch has built a dense world for itself in the last six years. But live service stories have come a long way in that time, with even Fortnite managing to hook people into its ongoing Funko Pop narrative. It's time for Blizzard to finally do something with its sci-fi superhero universe\u2014all it needs to do is take some pointers from the games that came in Overwatch's wake.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n
