Overwatch 2’s game director Aaron Keller extended a “heartfelt thank you” to everyone who took part in the first closed beta, and acknowledged some of its rough edges:
“Overwatchas a world, as a universe, is deeply personal to the team; something that we pour our time, creative energies and passion into,” he said. “It can be scary putting something that means so much to you out there for other people to look at. Especially when you know that it’s not finished and you’re asking for people’s real and valid criticisms of what you’ve made.”
Liam and Ed shot the shoot about Overwatch 2’s closed beta last week, and they chatted extensively about whether it was enough of an evolution from the original Overwatch. You can watch their thoughts in full in the video above or read them all in written formhere. The general impression? It’s a familiar experience but still a good ol’ fast-paced laugh, and both can’t wait to see more of its inevitable PvE mode.
