Summary
Overwatch 2is looking for a new product marketing consultant to execute a “major feature” for the first-person shooter. Though it is hard to say exactly what this might entail, it seems likeOverwatch 2is getting ready for something big.
The future ofOverwatch 2has been a hot topic recently. Blizzard has discussed thepossibility of 6v6 returning toOverwatch 2in some form, and rumors of an upcoming mobile title have been picking up steam once again.
Now, yet another circumstance has arisen that points towards something big on the horizon for the FPS.Blizzard recently posted a new job listingfor anOverwatch 2product marketing consultant. While this is not particularly out of the ordinary, one detail, in particular, stands out in the listing: the overarching goal for the position is to “support the marketing team with go-to-market planning and execution of a major feature forOverwatch 2.” Though there are no other details about what this feature might be, it is evidently significant enough to warrant the enlistment of specific consultants to work towards its launch.
Overwatch 2 Job Listing Confirms a “Major Feature” is in Development
This new position is responsible for market research, strategy, analysis, and coordination between the community, developers, and shareholders in regard to this secret project. The contract is listed for a six-month period on the team, implying Blizzard would want to roll out this “major feature” during that time frame, and that the position would be focused on this specific project. This meansOverwatch 2fans may learn what this futureproject is within the next year.
There is no telling exactly what exactly thisOverwatch 2secret could be, but there are a few things that would make sense. This project could be the rumoredOverwatch 2mobile platform port, if not an entirely new game based on the IP. Alternatively, it could be a new game mode of some sort, either related to its 6v6 tests or its all-but-canceled PvE modes. Given the listing is for what appears to be a game feature, it is likely not anOverwatch 2animated series – especially considering thefallout between Blizzard and Netflix surrounding its previous attemptto make one.
Whatever it is,Overwatch 2fans have a lot to look forward to right now. Season 13 only just began, but theories surrounding theidentity ofOverwatch 2’s Season 14 heroare already circulating. Additionally,Overwatch 2has been working on some new technology to allow it to more rapidly implement balance changes on the fly. The FPS has not been without its problems in the past, but it seems likeOverwatch 2is showing no signs of slowing down any time soon.
