The last day of Overwatch 1 will be October 2, 2022, as Blizzard confirmed.

Robert Purchese, Senior Staff Writer of Eurogamer, blowed the whistle and claimed he was notified by Blizzard during an Overwatch 2 roundtable interview last night (September 14). Blizzard’s Jon Spector later detailed more about the impending shutdown of Overwatch 1, which became the last nail in the coffin.

Overwatch 2 will launch on October 4, and become the only Overwatch game in Operation. Although it’s not what Blizzard previously promised, it is the official and final announcement.
