To the heroes of Overwatch,
We want to keep you up to date on some of the bugs and issues we’re aware of that are affecting the game. This is not a complete list of all currently tracked issues affecting Overwatch 2, rather, this is a targeted list of some known specific issues with this release.
- We have identified an issue where some subset of players were given a Season Ban from Competitive Play after being disconnected from a single match on April 23rd. Further wrongful bans have been prevented, and we are working to remove the bans for affected players.
- We have disabled the Mirrorwatch version of Watchpoint: Gibraltar in the Mirrorwatch event game mode as we work to fix an issue with the map terrain.
- We are currently investigating an issue with long queue times at certain ranks who queue in a group of 2 or more players.
- Update April 23: We have made a change to improve matchmaking for players at Grand Master rank and can now play with friends in a Narrow Group if they are within 3 Skill Divisions.
- We recently resolved an issue where some players may have found their previously owned Mythic skins missing. However, they may be able to purchase Mythic unlock levels for the skins they own (which does not grant any additional benefit). You can check before purchasing by seeing if you already can equip a Mythic skin in the Hero Gallery. If you feel you accidentally made a purchase to a previously unlocked skin, contact Blizzard Customer Service.
- Hanamura (Assault) is disabled from custom games as we investigate an issue with the map.
- We are aware of an issue where pressing space (on keyboard) or your confirm button (on controller) to skip the highlight intro will bypass the ranked progress screen.
- Some players are experiencing an LC-208 error.
Recently resolved
- We fixed an issue where Genji, Hanzo, and Kiriko cannot use his wall climb after doing an extended leap or double jump.
