The launch of the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta was well received by the community, literally rained down on Twitch to get the drops and access the game to try it out in these first official tests. Even the cheaters, however, have now begun to populate the servers ruining the experience for fans of the highly anticipated sequel.
On Twitter, the AntiCheatPD account posted a video showing how the cheats work in a test environment, with the following caption: “Cheats are already available for Overwatch 2.
If all goes well, they are detectable and will not last long, I really hope that the blizzard anti-cheat department has good plans to deal with this problem, or it will just be an unfair competitive environment, just like Overwatch 1″.
The following comment signed halfon_micheal, therefore, already shows a Play of The Game signed Jennifer with Soldier-76 where a traditional aimbot is clearly used capable of guaranteeing an otherwise impossible precision, without missing even a shot and with a perfect tracking of each enemy.
This seems to show how Overwatch 2 security side has not changed at all compared to the previous chapter or, quite simply, how in just 48 hours the hackers have managed to bypass the Blizzard home controls to enable such cheats.
Obviously, all this could be due only to the fact that the developers will intervene only in the coming weeks and behind the scenes on an anti-cheat perhaps as powerful as the Ricochet seen on Call of Duty Warzone and Vanguard.
There is only one hope: not to witness similar phenomena in the future. Meanwhile, Overwatch 2 took over Twitch with 1.46 million concurrent viewers.
