And should you end up enjoying the nostalgic blast of Overwatch: Classic, Blizzard indicates the event won’t just be a one-off.
Obviously, though, it’s not yet December, and Blizzard has confirmed 6v6’s imminent return as part of its newly announced limited-time Overwatch: Classic mode is “separate from our broader 6v6 plans”.
Overwatch: Classic runs from tomorrow, 12th November, to 2nd December, and consists of a series of events featuring Overwatch’s original heroes, abilities, and maps.
Blizzard has discussed resurrecting 6v6 matches for Overwatch 2 since July, when it admitted the switch to 5v5 had come “at the cost of match variety and player freedom”.
