Overwatch 2 absent from BlizzCon’s opening ceremonies

Blizzard Entertainment did not show off more of Overwatch 2 during today’s opening ceremonies for BlizzCon Online. Instead, Blizzard president J. Allen Brack told viewers to watch the Behind the Scenes of Overwatch panel later today for updates on the game.

It was strange to see the title not have any kind of major presence during the opening event, which Blizzard uses to showcase its upcoming big games and updates. We do know that Overwatch 2 isn’t coming out this year, but neither is Diablo IV. That game still had a presence during the opening ceremonies.
