Don't Expect More Overwatch 2 Story Missions Anytime Soon

It looks like Overwatch 2 won't be getting more story missions anytime soon according to a stream by Emongg featuring Jared Neuss (EP on OW2) via GamesRadar. Emongg spoke with Neuss, who set the expectations of more story missions following Season 6, Invasion.

"Don't expect the next round [of story missions] in the next season and the season after that, or anything like that," Neuss told Emongg.

"It is very much like trying to find that balance between getting [story missions] in front of players quickly because we love story stuff, and giving ourselves enough time to make changes or add features," the Neuss continued.

Let's just face facts, story missions aren't a priority for Blizzard in the hero shooter, despite them being one of the main reasons for the creation of the sequel, and despite the fact that they are now charging players for this content. If you're looking forward to more paid story content after Season 6, you'll have to be very patient by the sounds of it.

Note: Activision Blizzard has been sued by California’s Civil Rights Department, alleging violations of California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act and Equal Pay Act. CEO Bobby Kotick is alleged to have known about the alleged violations within his company. These allegations have all been denied by Activision Blizzard and the company points to additional diversity and inclusion training as past examples of taking the accusations seriously at the time they were made.
