Overwatch 2 has been on the horizon for quick some time, and players finally have a beta event that will give them their first taste of the next Overwatch installment’s gameplay. The PvP beta will be arriving on April 26 but will be limited to PC only. As yet, there is no news on when console players will get a beta, or if there are any plans to bring a beta to other platforms at all.
