As Activision Blizzard continues to be embroiled in lawsuits related to job discrimination and sexual harassment this year, the conflict within the company has intensified, even affecting the development of overwatch 2 and Diablo 4. In order to keep players confident in the game, the Overwatch 2 team recently invited some streamers and content creators to preview some of their work content inside the company in advance.
After the conference with Overwatch 2 developers ended on December 16, Overwatch content creators took to social media to highly praise the game's progress. They had no way to go into detail about what they saw due to a confidentiality agreement, but most of the creators who attended the event were very optimistic about the future of Overwatch 2.
Youtube creator YourOverwatch took to Twitter to greatly praise the joy the game content brings him, and Twitch anchor EeeveEA shared his expectations for Overwatch 2. Former pro Samito FPS said he was "very optimistic about the game for the first time in so long."
But some players were skeptical about the reaction of these content creators, with some even claiming that they had been bribed by Blizzard to instill confidence in the player base. Still, there are many fans who trust the optimism of the content creators they like.
Given the slowdown in development, it may be a while before players see content about Overwatch 2 in front of the crowd, but we can still expect a little bit and hope that the Overwatch 2 team will deliver a satisfactory answer sheet.
