Blizzard has announced a date for the first Overwatch 2 closed beta which will test the game’s PvP feature.
Set to go live on April 26, as previously reported, the closed beta will include a large group of testers who will be asked to provide gameplay feedback. The goal for this phase is to test new features, content, and systems before shifting to stress-testing the servers with a wider player base in future tests.
The closed beta will include 5v5, the new hero Sojourn, four new maps, the new Push mode, hero reworks, and a new Ping system.
