Blizzard appears to be conducting a poll among Overwatch 2 players to gather their opinions on the game’s Battle Pass and in-game store.
This is according to u/FelineXJunkie, who shared on the game’s subreddit community, stating that they had received an email from Blizzard. The email invited them to provide feedback on their gaming experiences thus far, with a significant focus on the shooter game’s in-game store and battle pass.
“I received an email from Blizzard asking me to complete a survey. It extensively covered topics related to the Battle Pass and the Overwatch Store,” they wrote. “If you haven’t done so yet, make sure to fill it out. I truly hope this is the initial step towards making changes.”

“I got it and filled it out,” another commenter responded. “I attempted to be critical yet honest because I was concerned that they might discard responses that were ‘too furious’. Hopefully, this indicates that they are willing to adjust things, but at this point, I’m not certain. The handling of this game has been disappointing, to put it mildly, so far.”
It also seems that Blizzard is targeting various groups of players for different purposes. For example, u/Kevombat mentions that they were contacted because they had purchased the Watchpoint Pack, while TheGamer reports that players who have resisted the temptation to buy additional packs and skins have also been invited to share their views.
Currently, it appears that the surveys are being sent to specific players. However, if you have been playing Overwatch 2 and wish to provide feedback, keep an eye on your inbox.
Blizzard asserts that it is “working to enhance” moderation in Overwatch 2 following a backlash against a “sexual harassment simulator” custom game. The free-to-play multiplayer game incorporates custom game modes that can be named freely, but it seems that some words are not prevented by Blizzard’s word filters.
Overwatch 2 has been beset with issues since its launch, ranging from controversial SMS verification to DDoS attacks and an auto-purchase bug.
