Lately, there have been a lot of minor and major bugs in Overwatch 2. The invisible team or the Mei issues, nothing that surprises us too much, unfortunately. A solution for minor problems has now been revealed by the development team: a new hotfix feature. Let's hope that it works just as the developers would like it to.

Hotfix Feature Works Now, Promises Blizzard

Overwatch 2 Season 2 has started and there are more good news for us. Waiting on balance updates and bug fixes in Season 1 often frustrated us. The updates just came too slowly. This was apparently the consequence of a mistake.

As Jon Spector, Overwatch Commercial Leader, says on Twitter, the hotfix feature wasn't available in Season 1. This doesn't explain everything, but it makes all the little mistakes a little more bearable. So let's hope that this is true, and that bugs will be fixed on the fly in the future.

That the feature works suggests that season 2 could become more balanced. More fun for us, less hate for Blizzard, that's a win-win situation if you ask us. We're definitely grinding the Battle Pass and playing a lot of Overwatch 2 with our friends in the near future. It's too cold outside at the moment anyway, and we can have Winter Wonderland in-game too.

Here, you are guaranteed to find a suitable Christmas gift for your friends!
