Blizzard Entertainment is testing a return to 6v6 team compositions in Overwatch 2, responding to player demand and aiming to strengthen the core game.
Game director Aaron Keller confirmed that 6v6 testing will begin in December, allowing for flexibility with roles under the "Min 1, Max 3" rule, promoting dynamic team strategies.
Two test formats will be introduced: a variation of Open Queue with 6v6 compositions and a nostalgic 2-2-2 format from the original Overwatch for further evaluation.
While experimenting with the 6v6 format, Blizzard is also rebalancing the game and analyzing whether existing tank passives in Overwatch 2 are necessary for gameplay.
