Overwatch 2 to be released this year, according to deleted PlayStation tweet.

This week, someone on PlayStation Brazil's social media team got a little too excited and hit "tweet" before thinking, telling everyone that Overwatch 2 will launch on PS4 in 2020 Blizzard has yet to announce a release date on any platform. and has not yet announced a release date for any platform, nor has it commented on the tweet.

Voxel discovered the PlayStation Brazil blunder before it was deleted and took a screenshot for posterity. The tweet linked to an article that not only claimed the product would launch in 2020, but also featured "hot information" that never actually surfaced. It was from November and did not mention a release date.

While "Overwatch 2" was playable at BlizzCon, Jeff Kaplan said it was still in the early stages of development and Blizzard had no release date in mind. The message seems to be slow and steady. That being the case, it is hard to imagine it being released so soon. This leak should be taken with a grain of salt.
