Blizzard Studios, who created “Overwatch,” is currently accepting applications for the game’s beta testing period. They have also confirmed that a new character, the Junker Queen, will be playable during testing. To join the beta, you have to “opt-in” on the Overwatch website. Players selected to participate in the beta will receive an email confirming their spot. Those who miss out will have to opt in again for any future testing phases.
The beta testing period began with a small cohort of players on June 28 at 11:00 AM PDT. Sign-up is still open and waves of players are scheduled to be added as the testing goes on. The first wave will join the game on July 5. Although there are no guarantees, Blizzard says it is aiming to provide access to every player who has opted into the beta by July 14. For players who want to guarantee a spot in the beta, or just want to access it immediately, purchasing the “Overwatch 2: Watchpoint Pack” includes guaranteed and instant beta access.
“Overwatch 2” will release across a wide range of platforms, so far a PC release has been confirmed, along with Xbox Series X and S consoles, Playstation 5, Playstation 4, and the Nintendo Switch.
For players that can’t get into the beta testing phase or just don’t want to deal with the inevitable bugs, balance issues, and glitches that come with a game in its testing period, the early-access release of the finished game is scheduled for October 4, 2022.
