It has been a year and a half since the announcement of Overwatch 2 during the opening ceremony at BlizzCon 2019, and since then there hasn’t been any news about the highly anticipated sequel.<\/p>\n

On one hand, Blizzard is known for its policy that things are coming “soon™” and that they are only talking about something when they are ready to talk about it.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, this complete radio silence has many fans left concerned that something is definitely not how it should be.<\/p>\n

Especially considering the lack of almost any new content for Overwatch “1” during this period, as the game received its last new hero back in April.<\/a><\/p>\n

The rumours of Overwatch 2’s potential delay have been flying around for quite some time and were fueled recently with comments from Metro<\/a>, member of the Overwatch community known for his insights about Overwatch.<\/p>\n

And now the latest not-so-good news is coming from South Korea.<\/p>\n

\n

Overwatch 2 will probably not be released this summer. No matter how early it is released, it will be released at the end of the year 2021.<\/p>\n

According to a report from Naeri, who has strong connections with Blizzard Korea, we should not expect Overwatch 2 to be released this summer, and a more likely release date is Q4 2021.<\/p>\n

Gaku says he didn’t do any work related to Overwatch 2 (Picture: Blizzard)<\/span><\/p>\n

She states that Genji’s Korean voice actor Gaku Space has revealed some bad news for the Overwatch 2 fans. Apparently, the work on recording Korean voiceover for Genji (and assumingly other characters) hasn’t even started yet.<\/p>\n

Reddit user Evenstar6132 revealed<\/a> that this statement comes from a recent interview, where Gaku Space says that he is still working on Overwatch but “haven’t heard anything about Overwatch 2”.<\/p>\n
