Overwatch 2 Beta Could Be Coming Soon, According To Leaks


One of Overwatch 2’s original leakers has suggested that the game could be receiving a beta soon.

Overwatch 2 was announced quite a while ago, and since then we’ve only received small updates followed by the game being pushed back to 2023. In the midst of the Activision-Blizzard scandal, it seemed unlikely we’d be hearing much about Overwatch 2 for some time.

However, an established leaker known as Metro thinks a beta for the game could be right around the corner.

Overwatch 2 Beta Leaks

The tweet below by Naeri shows the evidence for a beta releasing soon. This information was found after multiple updates to Blizzard’s Battle.net server. It indicates that a beta or demo of some kind could go live in the near future.

Metro, who has leaked Overwatch information before, talked about the leak on his Twitch stream. He confirmed that the developer server and content creator leak were in fact correct, saying “I think it’s happening soon guys.

However, he was careful not to reveal anything else, due to the fact he wants to sign a contract with Blizzard.

We should obviously take this leak with a grain of salt, but it’s the biggest evidence we’ve got for a potential beta coming soon. And if the leak is true, it should be an exciting time for Overwatch players.
