Goodbye, Overwatch: Game servers will be shut down in early October

The era of the original Overwatch has come to an end because Blizzard has announced that the co-op game will officially be disconnected from the servers on Sunday, October 2.

Instead, the Overwatch 2 servers will be turned on, which will start on October 4. Thus, the second part will be the only game in this series that will remain afloat.

October 2 will indeed be the afternoon when you can go and play Overwatch, as confirmed by the commercial director of the game John Spector. After that, the planned 27-hour downtime will begin, during which the servers of the second part will be prepared for launch.

Players will be given the opportunity to pre-load Overwatch 2 before launch, and for fans of the first part, the company promises to release a manual where it will be told what to do to save their progress.

Thus, the owners of the first part will essentially update it, and not install a completely new game instead. As we said earlier, this whole launch is more like the release of Overwatch 2.0 than the launch of a full-fledged second part.

This puts Blizzard in a strange position, as it upsets both fans who wanted a full-fledged sequel, and those who were completely happy with owning the first part.

No less strange look and other decisions of the developers - so, some heroes will be blocked as part of the battle pass. At the same time, players who pay real money will be able to get such new heroes as Kiriko immediately.
