There isn’t a lot known about the upcoming competitive mode in the game, but what we can say is that players are absolutely thrilled about it.

FACEIT begins playtests for competitive Overwatch

Testing phases are underway! FACEIT involved 200 players in the initial stage of testing for the league’s innovative competitive queue. For quite a while, FACEIT has been a significant player in the competitive Overwatch scene, having participated in events like the Esports World Cup and major tournament series.

Today, it has been announced that players now have the opportunity to dive into FACEIT’s queue for a sneak peek at the future of competitive Overwatch.

Actually, according to Overwatch Cavalry’s tweet, a player stated that they hadn’t witnessed Overwatch players exhibit such a strong desire to play a match like this previously.

Can FACEIT save competitive Overwatch?

Is there a consensus that 2025 will be a triumphant year for competitive Overwatch, given that while some view FACEIT as reliable, others perceive the game’s competitive and casual scenes as struggling or on the decline?

Due to the new launch of Marvel Rivals, featuring Marvel characters similar to Overwatch, there’s been a significant decrease in the number of players for Overwatch 2. The game had been losing its appeal over the last few years as other shooting games gained more popularity.

Hey there fellow gamers! As a die-hard Overwatch fan, I can’t help but wonder: could FACEIT’s latest competitive queue be the breath of fresh air our beloved game needs? Or might it just add another layer to the ongoing struggle? Keep your eyes peeled on Xpsp, as we’ll be the first to break the news when more details about competitive Overwatch emerge.
