Overwatch Known Issues - July 6, 2026

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, rather, this is a targeted list of some known specific issues with this release.

We’re sorry for any inconvenience, and we appreciate y’all’s understanding. Our team is working to resolve these issues, and we will provide more information as soon as we have updates!

Current Issues

Community Crafted - Arcade Mode

  • We’re aware of an issue where the Revitalizing Barrier VFX appears before Projected Barrier activates.
  • We’re aware of an issue where Zarya’s Projected Barrier does not grant additional jump height.
  • We’re aware of an issue where picking Mizuki’s Rule of Three perk without ever having used Healing Kasa previously during that life will prevent charges of Healing Kasa from regenerating until Mizuki respawns.
  • We’re aware of an issue where placing Widowmaker’s Venom Mine tripwire across a destructible object immediately triggers the tripwire.

Cosmetics

  • We’re aware of an issue where Mythic Weapon kill effects are not working for some players. Un-equipping and re-equipping an effected Mythic Weapon Skin should resolve most issues.
  • We’re aware of an issue where Kiriko’s Fox Star skin renders incorrectly on low graphical settings.

Recently Resolved

  • Resolved an issue where preferred heroes did not appear for teammates not in a group.
  • Resolved a lighting issue causing some heroes to render brighter than they should appear.
  • Recently resolved an issue which resulted in disabling the DX12 Beta for some video cards due to stability concerns.

For a full list of resolved issues, check out the Patch Notes here.
