Overwatch 2 lead shoots down rumour that a promised PvE mode was gutted due to a controversial policy change
The real reason is "less exciting"

Blizzard has shot down a rumour that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Overwatch 2's PvE was gutted due to a recently༺ enforced and controversial policy change.
Executive producer Jared Neuss that Blizzard's 𝓀directive to staffers to return to the office for work isn't behind the decision to refocus Overwatch 2's PvE offering. Rather, the reason is so🎉mewhat less dramatic.
"Managing PvE and PvP development simultaneously has been a challenge for the♌ team for years," he shares. "It's a less exciting headline, but it's reality."
Neuss goes on to say that more detail will be offered in his next Directo🤡r's Take blog post. "I hope that the additional context can shed some light on w🔯hy we made this decision," he adds.
While some have accepted the decision, others still have frustrations to vent. One fan says that "no matter how much context you give," no one will be ♏satisfied. That's because Overwatch haওd "no content for three years" regarding PvE, with the promised campaign of Overwatch 2 being the light at the end of the tunnel.
"I definitely don't expect anyone who is upset to be satisfied," Neuss replies. "That doesn✱'t mean they don't d♔eserve more of an explanation, though."
began to swirl online that Blizzard calling workers back to the office had a detrimental effect on Overwatch 2's continued development, with one populaꦿr Twitter user citing som🍎eone from the studio as their source. It's worth noting, however, that the thread has been pulled following Neuss' comments, with an explanation put in its place.
