Overview

• Blizzard plans to test two different 6v6 formats in Overwatch 2's next season, starting December 17.
• These tests aim to address past issues with team composition and balance that led to the original shift to 5v5.
• The first test will allow flexible team compositions, while the second will revisit the structured 2-2-2 format.
• Player feedback and participation in these tests will help determine if 6v6 could become a permanent option.
• Blizzard is also experimenting with new 5v5 modes to enhance gameplay flexibility and gather comprehensive data.
