Hi all,
Firstly, good job on the Beta - it was my first time playing OW on PC but it ran smoothly, and I love the new voice lines.
However, it got me thinking that I would love to own the game on PC as well as PS4, which I already have a decent account on.
The only thing stopping me from buying OW on PC as well is the fact I would lose all my progress - and I don’t see myself getting over this. As a result, I would love to know if there are any plans to add cross-progression in the near future.
TL; DR: Any plants to add cross progression (sharing progress between platforms) for OW2?
Thanks!

Cross-progression is an interest for the dev team, but they have not committed to any promises that it will come for Overwatch 2 or any future patch at this time.
I realize from a standpoint why this would be hard considering platforms like to keep people on their platform. Honestly I think a step would just to be to allow a mouse a keyboard option on platforms.
Most of the reasoning to switch over to PC is due to sensitivity and gameplay limits controllers impart on the player. (Less buttons/keys= less you can do)
I’d say add it so they could go into the pc pool as well. Though I might be mistaken, a “console pool” compared to a “PC pool” is different in that even with cross play on still only tries to match with other consoles.
I am not sure how hard that M+KB settings would be to implement though. I know some will still want it because maybe they have more friends on another platform or it feels better on one platform over the other.
