Betawatch 2: 2 Beta 2 Overwatch

Beta botch.

It’s time to beta test Overwatch 2! Well, it’s time for some people to beta test it. It might not include you; it’s a closed beta, after all. And it’s a closed beta just for the game’s PvP, not PvE, because this here is all about the esports and competition! That part is still going well for the game, right?

Aw, darnarooni. Anyway, other beta news!

Thanks for reading our beta news roundup! Tune in next week for Betawatch 3: Son of Betawatch! (Note: This will not actually be a joke we do next week. Do not tune in for that. Tune in for more beta news, and also scroll on down below for our full list of games in testing. Do leave a comment if something swapped test phases without us noticing. We’ll tune in for that.)

As always, we consider an MMO to be in open testing if it features free, public signups and will server wipe prior to launch. An MMO is marked in closed testing if it’s running a private test phase that cannot freely be accessed by the general public; it’s usually under NDA as well. Early access and crowdfunded MMOs whose tests we deem legitimate will be included. So-called “open beta” soft-launch MMOs with cash shops, no sign of launch in the west, or limited interest for our readers will not be listed, nor will games that are NFT/blockchain scams; we also do not list expansions, with occasional exceptions.

Yes, MMO gamers, you too can perform the unpaid quality-control work otherwise known as game testing! Check out Massively Overpowered’s Betawatch every week for a run-down of MMOs that are still on the road to launch, even if they appear to have set up a permanent residence in a shed called early access.
