FAQ:

Q. Why alter Quick Play rules for a weekend?

A. We aim to understand your preferences for changes coming to Overwatch 2. By testing new concepts temporarily, we can quickly gauge your preferences and potentially implement improvements to the gameplay. It also provides players of all skill levels a chance to experiment with playstyles and strategies that may not work as effectively in traditional Overwatch games.

Q. Why not introduce a separate play card in the Arcade?

A. The Arcade primarily hosts modes designed for specific map types or entirely different ways to play Overwatch. Quick Play: Hacked changes influence the core gameplay of the main mode while seeking a more balanced and unique play experience compared to the standard rules.

Q. Why not revive the Experimental Play card?

A. We want more players to join the fun, and most experimental cards focused on testing hero balance changes, while Quick Play: Hacked aims to alter core gameplay rules.

Q. How can I play the regular Quick Play ruleset?

A. Create a custom game with the traditional Quick Play rules and invite others. Quick Play matchmaking will return to normal after January 14.
