However, they still consider themselves to be his MMO team and have made plans for his three-step return to MMO development.
The first step was to create Overwatch using assets from Project Titan, which turned out to be a “huge hit”. The second step in the plan was a PvE-only version of him that combined Overwatch 2 hero and story missions. Ultimately, this leads to an MMO that truly fulfills its original vision. Project Titan. ”
So what was the problem?
According to Overwatch 2’s current game director Aaron Kellerthe team[wasn’t] “I was as focused as I should have been on the blockbuster game,” he said, so focused on the project that he could no longer get a job.
