After a long wait, Blizzard Entertainment has confirmed that the first Beta of Overwatch 2 begins in April 2022, which will allow players to experience first-hand the awaited new episode of the famous hero shooter.
However, the April Beta will only be available on PC, although the game is also in development for PlayStation and Xbox. This decision by the developers left a bad taste in the mouth of console players, who expressed their disappointment at Blizzard’s move through social media and popular forums such as Reddit. On the latter, in fact, many users have vented through the comments.
” We’ve waited 3 years to see actual content, and when we finally get it, it’s for PC gamers only. So we’re forced to sit back and watch others have fun,” says one user, while another says he is teased by the presence. of a controller emoji in the announcement posted by Blizzard.
While it is true that if you wanted to, you could play on a PC by connecting a pad, some point out that it would be ” extremely difficult ” to play it this way, rather than with a regular mouse and keyboard.
And again, another fan thunders: “They never bothered to fix that faulty interface on console since it was designed for PC and it took years to develop a problem reporting system, so there is no. surprising if they left us in the dust”. Other players, however, point out that Betas are usually always meant for PC, and that doesn’t rule out that a console Beta may come later anyway.
