Overwatch 2

Blizzard’s Overwatch 2, which launched and officially replaced the original game on October 4, definitely wasn’t ready for prime time when it came out. This one suffered from a plethora of issues. There were massively overcrowded servers and long queue times due in part to an extensive DDoS attack, the SMS Protect phone requirement has been a particular point of contention among low-income players, and whole characters—such as Bastion and Mei—were pulled from the game for weeks because of bugs. Overwatch 2 was also riddled with glitches, like players getting stuck in their spawn rooms or blasting off to the skybox like a rocket heading off to space. Things are seemingly better now following updates, but it had a rough go at launch.
