We’re turning back the clock for some classic Overwatch fun!Return to the thrilling gameplay experience that started it all in Overwatch: Classic.Play with t...
(Limited time Overwatch 2 gamemode where they use the same maps and rules from Overwatch 1’s first year)
Seeing scatter arrow and torbjorn armor threw me for a loop. I do wish they’d bring back OW1 proper rather than have it be a gamemode, but it’s something at least.
Kinda wild they’ve now done this for nearly every game in their portfolio though. We have multiple flavors of World of Warcraft Classic, Hearthstone had a Classic mode for about a year, D2R is basically Diablo Classic, now there’s gonna be Overwatch Classic. I guess we just need a Heroes of the Storm Classic and a remake of Brood War to complete the set.

Or play something original and fresh and well crafted, like deadlock
No thanks I already fucking paid for that and they took it away for a shittier version.
Literally 12 hours too late. I just started playing The Finals today and I’m never going back.
The finals is such a good FPS
Interesting model blizz. Create a game. Build a base. Destroy the game and lose part of that base. Re-release original game to claw back former base.
“re-release” XD
Even if Blizzard did actually re-release the game I paid 40$USD for and can no longer play, they couldn’t get me to jump back in with a battering ram.

When you’re out of ideas so you go back to basics.
That’s just a kick in the nuts for the masochists who play ow 1.2
