Short talk with newcomers: details of Overwatch 2 launch

One of the most anticipated multiplayer shooters of our time - Overwatch 2 - will soon get to the release. On the eve of this event Blizzard employees published a trailer and shared with the public detailed information about the launch of the game. In short, the developers are paying special attention to security measures. And they will not seem comfortable to everyone.

The game will be free, which is a plus. And the minus is that Blizzard seems to be seriously concerned about the fight against cheating and other unsportsmanlike behavior. First, when registering players will be required to specify a personal phone number to activate the account via SMS-message. And there will be such a rule: one account - one phone. Secondly, after receiving a complaint against a participant of the match, his communication in the voice chat will be recorded and stored on the server for a month. This is done specifically so that you can study the behavior of the person and understand whether he really violated something.

"Hot" reception also awaits newcomers who join the online battles at the October 4 release. To access the characters of the first part, they will have to play a hundred matches, and not in all modes - some will be hidden until the required amount of experience. Also, the developers decided to remove the general chat from the action game - only the team chat will remain.
