Overwatch 2 is a free to play game, and I’d definitely recommend trying it out if you haven’t to see how you feel about the gameplay and to see how well it runs on Steam Deck. Despite its flaws, it is still worth playing, but some of the decisions with how certain content has been handled in-game are weird. Overwatch 2 is yet to reach the highs of the original Overwatch, but it is still a great multiplayer game to play on Steam Deck. I enjoyed Overwatch 2 quite a bit on Switch despite the visual and performance cutbacks, but it really shines on Steam Deck.

While the game is called Overwatch 2, this all seems more like a transition to a full new game. The biggest changes are dropping the 6v6 gameplay in favour of a much more exciting 5v5 format. Three new heroes are also available, along with a new game mode, but for a final and real verdict, everyone should wait for the upcoming PvE segment.

Overwatch 2 delivers high-octane multiplayer gameplay and a wholly improved version of the much-loved hero shooter. Now that the dust has settled, it’s becoming clear that despite a number of teething issues, the game manages to do what many sequels struggle to; build upon a successful game, and make it even better.

Jeu avec bon potentiel mais gâché par des prises de décision de personne qui ne doit pas jouer à leur jeu comme d'habitude en faite.
Je suis un joueur qui a commencé OW depuis le "grand" revirement. Après 224h de jeu j'en retiens plus de frustration qu'autre chose, car c est un jeu qui peut être un bon jeu. J'explique, c'est un jeu fps qui se veut compétitif vu que c est littéralement un jeu pvp après il y a les qp et la ranked (sans compter le **** et ne parlons pas du "pvm" du jeu). On arrive au problème qui est que j'ai rarement connu une ranked aussi CATASTROPHIQUE, ils veulent plairent a tout le monde avec un systeme de 50% w/r on se retrouve avec un amalgame de joueur avec des contraste enorme en terme de niveau de jeu, ça n a aucun sens on se retrouve littéralement dans une partie rapide mais avec des points en plus ou en moins a la fin de la partie c est une infamie sans nom a vouloir plaire a tout le monde la ranked n est plus de la ranked. Au lieu d avoir un systeme saint ou les joueurs niveau bronze sont en faite gold avec des joueurs niveau gold ca n a ni queue ni tete et l exemple se fait ressentir a n importe quel élo que ca soit en virtuose ou en gold. A vouloir casualiser un mode "compétitif" on se retrouve avec une enorme bouze. J'ai souvent entendu le "t'es bon tu monte" c'est vrai, mais qu est ce que tu vas galérer, car il y a el famoso systemo qui te rentre dans le crane avec son systeme de 50% de wr donc tu vas te retrouver avec les pires joueurs avec toi contre une team equilibrer en face et si tu main support et que tu joues support bonne chance pour carry t as game. Donc voilà on se retrouve avec un des pires systèmes qui gangrène les jeux dites compétitifs. Bref ça mérite clairement un 0 pour la prise de décision qui est inexistante. Un mode pvm payant alors qu il etait censé etre gratuit un batllepass ou au bout de qql uns tu es quand meme obligé de payer car un battlepass ne te permet pas de pouvoir payer le suivant, je connais aucun bon jeu qui a survecu avec ce systeme. Alors qu ils brassent deja pas mal avec des skins payants avec de superbe collab' faut se l avouer, mais avec un systeme aussi pourri je ne donnerai pas un rond. Pourtant c est pas l envie qui manque, car je le vois le potentiel. J ai eu qql retour d ancieeeeeeen joueur de ow quand on compare le contenu de 2013 et mtn il est quasiment identique a ce demander qu est ce qu ils font mdrrrr. Bref, si vous voulez jouer chill sans prise de tete de manière casual c est un "bon" jeu mais si vous voulez rentrer dans le competitif fuyez. Dernier conseil pour ceux qui veulent quand mm faire de la ranked serieusement jouer bcp en partie rapide, car il y a un systeme caché, j ai fait mes placements dès que j ai pu avec un collègue ancien grandmaster, j ai fini argent 2 lui diamant 2 et pour le **** c 'etait qqlchose j avais l impression d etre un adulte qui joue au football avec des gosses en primaire mdrrrrr.

Overwatch 2 plays brilliantly. It’s a wonderful shooter full of depth, with unique heroes to master, maps to learn, and hours of your life to lose all over again.

Overwatch 2 is a worthy successor to the original Overwatch that doesn’t so much reinvent the wheel as it does improve upon it. While it does have its issues, the core gameplay and improved UI make for a fun and fully realized sequel.

Um dos momentos mais felizes da minha vida foi quando comprei esse jogo. Eu simplesmente me apaixonei pelos personagens, e acho que foi o jogo que mais joguei em toda a minha vida. Embora o 2 tenha trago muitas decepções, fico feliz em saber que estão melhorando.

Overwatch isn’t just a shooter—it’s a masterclass in team-based game design. From the moment you step into a match, it’s clear that every element has been carefully crafted. The heroes are diverse, both in gameplay and personality, each offering unique abilities that fundamentally change how matches unfold. Whether you’re coordinating pushes as a tank, clutch-healing as a support, or carrying fights as a damage dealer, every role feels impactful and **** gameplay is incredibly polished. Movement is fluid, abilities are responsive, and the gunplay strikes a perfect balance between accessibility and depth. Team coordination is at the heart of the experience, rewarding communication, strategy, and adaptability over raw mechanical skill alone.What truly elevates Overwatch is its character design and world-building. Each hero feels alive, backed by strong visual identity and subtle storytelling woven into maps, voice lines, and interactions. It creates an emotional connection rarely seen in multiplayer shooters.Matches are fast-paced but rarely chaotic in a frustrating way. There’s a constant sense of momentum, with team fights that can turn in seconds thanks to well-timed ultimates or smart positioning. Every victory feels earned, and every loss pushes you to improve.Blizzard’s attention to detail is evident everywhere—from map design to sound cues—making the experience consistently engaging. Combined with its vibrant art style and strong competitive foundation, Overwatch sets a benchmark for the genre.Even years after release, it remains one of the most refined and enjoyable multiplayer experiences available. It’s not just a great game—it’s a defining one.

Overwatch 2 simply exists in an awkward transition phase between the game it was and the game it wants to be. It's not a revolution by any stretch, at least not how the original game was, but it's still Overwatch and that means it's still a ton of fun.

It’s difficult to look back on a game like Overwatch and wonder what it could’ve been if it had been delayed, and released as a complete, full-priced package with none of the extras: no feel-bad Battle Passes, with the story mode and Hero Missions available to all from the get-go. It’s not all doom and gloom of course; I’ve been in denial about the change in direction for PvP, but tens of hours of playtime have convinced me that the new 5v5 format will lead to more exciting experiences going forward. For my fellow lore and character enthusiasts, well, there’s always next year.

This is, really, a relaunch dressed up as a sequel, although the game remains as fun as ever. Some balancing issues and, of course, a questionable progression system hinder the potential of Overwatch 2.

Overwatch 2 is as fun and fast-paced as the original game, but its free-to-play structure sullies the experience a bit.

While Overwatch 2 adds a host of heroes and features to Blizzard’s iconic FPS game, its PvP feels more like a simple content update than a full blown sequel.

This game is up there with my favorite games of all time. Blizzard def messed it up with Overwatch 2, but now this game is back.

3 years into this game and blizzard still can’t release a new hero without them being comically broken at launch. Only give skins to certain hero’s. The support roster end up doing a comical more amount of damage than half the dps roster could ever achieve. The one thing they said they wanted to remove was any kind of stun ability like Mei’s freeze ability from the first game only for them to bring it back and add more stun or hinder abilities than ever before. PvE is still never being added. Blizzards idea of new content is more skins for Kiriko, and a **** new game mode you’ll play once and never again. The community is awful from ranks gold to diamond, console lobbies can have people using mouse and keyboard. Custom games are very limiting and overwatch’s fanbase uses it to create an SA simulator which is just absolutely disgusting. They added hero bans and map voting because they can’t balance the game and 60% of maps are just hot garbage. One of the modes clash isn’t in comp and honestly in my opinion it’s miles better than push yet that still remains in comp. 5v5 is honestly the worst choice blizzard could’ve ever made, I’m convinced they only did it to make it seem like overwatch 2 is vastly different to overwatch 1. I mentioned how they didn’t add the PvE earlier and that’s only partly true because they did add 3 missions like how they did with the archive missions in overwatch 1 except these ones cost £12.99 which is absolutely ridiculous. The pricing in general for skins and bundles is classic blizzard where some skins/bundles will end up being the same price as other better games. In fact here’s a list of games you could buy instead of the Le sserafim mega bundle which roughly translates to £50-60; both hollow knight games, Persona 5, The orange box, Red dead redemption 2, Elden ring, final fantasy 7-10, Kingdom hearts collection, Spiderman, Dark souls 1+2, All **** versions of Skyrim, Metal gear solid Delta, hell when the entire yakuza series is on sale it’s cheaper than this bundle. The only pros of actually playing this horrendously made sequel to one of the best shooters in 2016 is that it retains the variety between play styles (even if some are just pointless because of certain supports) and the characters themselves are all diverse and there’ll definitely be quite a few you’ll like based off their lore. But that can’t save overwatch 2 from being one of the most awful and unbalanced games made by a developer that used to make games of the highest quality.

Amazing game in many respects.. I've played for 3000+ hours and I'm a top 500 support player: I think with a solid update, it'd genuinely get a 10/10 from me. The depth in terms of the hero interactions is unlike any game. ... but it would require: 1. Fixing the servers. 30% of games are Singapore (I live in Australia) and you have a constant 150 ping.
2. Remove or rework the terrible heroes in the game (i.e. moira, mauga, orisa, sombra) where you don't require a good understanding of the game to play them for various reasons (i.e. easy escapes and insane survivability through using broken abilities).
