DDoS cyberattack hits Battle.net: Overwatch, Hearthstone, and World of Warcraft are down

Justice isn’t raining from the sky for once, and it’s not because I shot Pharah with Ana’s sleeper dart.

Blizzard’s Battle.net servers are experiencing issues once again that are keeping players offline. This is the third time Battle.net has gone offline this week, but this time, the publisher has revealed the situation is a result of a distributed denial-of-service cyberattack (DDoS). This is affecting Overwatch, World of Warcraft, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, and more. Players on PC as well as consoles like Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are all encountering difficulties, and those gamers have taken to social media to let Blizzard know.
