As part of our ongoing effort to ensure Overwatch provides the most welcoming environment possible for players, we’re making some changes to our penalties against players reported for inappropriate language—as well as making a few changes to our profanity filter to give players better tools to manage what kind of language they see in their games.
The profanity filter in Overwatch currently provides players with two basic settings: on or off. However, this doesn’t account for players who might be OK with seeing more mature language in party chat with their friends, but would rather filter such language out when chatting with players they don’t know. In order to give players more control over the types of the language they see and the situations in which they appear, we’re making some updates to the profanity filter, which are now available for testing on the Public Test Realm (PTR).
Instead of a simple “on/off” profanity filter, there ...

We’re back with another Experimental mode focused on testing some balance changes. As with all Experimental modes, these changes are not guaranteed to reach the live version of the game. Check out the full patch notes here.
What are we trying to address?

Hello everyone!
This issue should now be resolved across all platforms and regions. If you’ve unlocked the 6-hour Twitch Drops reward by watching Overwatch streams, you should now see these sprays unlocked and usable in-game.
Cheers!
This is not correct, tier 1 has 1 spray, 2 has 2, 3 has 3.
Can you try again? I am seeing some reports within the last two hours that linking is now working again.
I did get confirmation Blizzard is aware of the issue though.
Hello Molly, thanks for writing in!
I would like to point out as of today, I am tracking a new problem in the Technical Support forum. Some users have reported not being able to relink their Blizzard account to Twitch if they unlinked it in attempt to troubleshoot this issue. I reported this to Blizzard Customer Service, but figure I might as well post here as well.
Hey folks-
We’re aware of an issue with the Tracer’s Comic Challenge 6 Hour rewards not being usable on accounts after watching 6-hours of Overwatch streams on Twitch. But, don’t worry - ALL watch time has been correctly tracked and rewards are being properly credited to accounts on the back-end.
We believe we’ve found a solve for this issue and we’re actively working on implementing a fix that will allow use of the sprays for accounts that have unlocked the reward.
If you want more information on the event: read here.
Thanks for your patience!

Hey everyone!
We’re back with another Experimental mode focused on increasing consistency with shotgun-style weapons (Patch Notes). As with all Experimental modes, these changes are not guaranteed to reach the live version of the game.
What are we trying to address?
Heroes with shotgun-style weapons currently experience an amount of randomness in their shots which can affect the reliability of some heroes’ weapons. We want to experiment with changes that will allow these weapons to behave more consistently.
What are we testing?
We’re looking to increase the consistency of shotgun weapons by removing the random rotation...

Season 24 of Competitive Play is here!
Unlocked at level 25, Competitive Play is designed for those players who want to put their skills to the test, and offers a more serious experience than our Quick Play or Arcade Modes.
Before you can kick off your competitive career, every player will be required to complete five placement matches in a selected role to obtain their seasonal skill rating for that role. Within the standard Role Queue competitive mode, players will earn separate skill ratings (SR) for each role in Competitive Play, for a total of three distinct SRs. This rating will be a number between 1 and 5000, with higher values indicating a greater skill level. Players will also be assigned a tier per role based on their rating—Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master, or Grandmaster – and climbing into the next tier is possible as you improve. Open Queue will utilize the sam...

Read moreHey everyone!
We have another Experimental mode focused on adjusting damage and healing output for heroes (Patch Notes). As with all Experimental modes, these changes are not guaranteed to reach the live version of the game.
What are we trying to address?
We’ve been reducing the power level of barriers in Overwatch over the past few patches. Now, with the recent updates to Tanks, we’ve seen some feedback about gameplay pacing feeling much faster with fewer barriers in-play. Also, over four years, we’ve released more than 50 major patches and even more balance-focused patches, which has led to some shifts in what would be considered the “base power” ...
