Overwatch2 Login problem doesnt give feedback

Dear fellow nerds (or anything else),

Today I played Overwatch2 and then I quit. When I restarted the game this night. The game didn’t let me in. It showed me the login screen. So as a good human being as I am, i filled in all my information and tried to login. It seemed to work, but then… without any form of progress. It went back to the login forms. Over and over and over… I am devestated. My friends are now playing without me, i’m left out. The fomo is real. I’m really considering restarting life. Please. Someone. Help.

Same here
I opened the game for the first time like 12 hours ago, checked out cosmetics, closed the game
I wanted to play it w/ my friend an hour ago, but I got stuck in a login loop all of the sudden

Support ticket didn’t help, got a generic troubleshooting reply

Same problem here, stuck in an infinite login screen loop. Other blizzard games are working fine, in fact the login shows up in my last played/history.

Problems started Friday evening. Still have the problems today. Can’t find any announcements anywhere about this problem, only this post.

Guess I’m not playing anything this weekend.

edit: did all the usual debugging, restarting pc, restarting router, reinstalling ow2 and battlenet, etc.

I told customer service I tried connecting on a different ISP since I have access to another connection, they basically don’t read the ticket.

I also linked them to this exact post, well after 6 hours they resolved my ticket with this template:

“Since you’ve exhausted the steps available through customer support, the next best course is to seek assistance from the broader community through forums, consult with a local tech expert, or contact your Internet Service Provider if you suspect a connection issue. Sometimes, the issue might require more specialized knowledge or diagnostics tools that aren’t readily available through our standard support channels.”

I’m a new player but I can only imagine how it’d be if you’re a dedicated OW2 player and this happens.

Same issue with the login loop! Made a new account just to test and see if that would work and it did but still get the login loop on my main account. I’ve opened 2 tickets in the past 24 hrs and get a generic response everytime. The last response they gave me a link to click that doesnt even exist. Blizz support is atrocious

I have the same problem and I guarantee if you want to play you could get in with a second account. Super annoying

So i just finished an uninstall and reinstall and still not working. Still in the login loop.

I am just thinking about it and would the game just required to open new ports ? Outbound are never restricted so I’m speaking of inbound. Maybe it’s not the game but some windows bug. I know it’s not and update and this happen in a maybe 10 minutes gap in between both try without any reboot or session log off and usually policies applies only at reboot or session login.

Same issue. I’ve done 2 tickets, the last one I specifically said that it feels like they aren’t reading my tickets and I got a human response that still came down to “check the forums for further support”. The issue is 100% on Blizzard’s end and they don’t seem to care that it’s an issue. Really disappointing. I’ve been playing their games for over 20 years, going back to the 1st Warcraft, and I’ve never seen this poor support from them. Really is a different company now.

Hello everyone! I’m in the same boat. The account where i bought the first Overwatch can’t login but a new account can. Yet they still say the issue is on my end and to create a topic here to get help… They’re a joke.

yes, they always blame your ISP/Network router/ or your PC.

when other users are facing the same issue

Of course it’s a their end! Strange that my friends have no issue playing with theirs… If it was the servers they would have issues too… It’s related to the accounts. If you call accounts servers then you’re right.

Yep same issue here. Been 5 days.

Haven’t played since 2016-2017 and when I launch the game it goes to “Entering game” and then disconnects and loops over and over.

Other accounts work fine. It is an Overwatch server issue loading up this account so I guess we just wait until they fix it.

Update:
My problem got magically resolved after a last update, I didn’t do anything
