Well, this is hardly unexpected.

Still, considering how PvE was supposed to be the pillar of Overwatch "2", and the outwards-facing reason for the switchover, it's sad. There was actually some cool promise in those PvE ideas, and now even the "light" version seems to be cancelled.

I really doubt it considering how many boxes you got thrown after you, with coins for dups with which you can just buy skins. Was a great system for the player, but probably terrible monitarily.
