With the release of Season 6, the developers introduced a brand-new story mode for Invasion, starring popular entertainer John Cena. Although they eventually fulfilled their promise to create a campaign, many were outraged to see that it was hidden behind a $14.99 gate.
Blizzard has announced that players will not be able to participate in the new PvE events unless they purchase the Invasion Bundle. The most serious issue leveled about the game is that, despite being free to play, players must pay to enter gaming in OW2.
Furthermore, promises to release new content have disappointed players in recent months, only to introduce new cosmetics and one flimsy LTM. The game is still receiving negative feedback across multiple platforms. With over 15,000 unfavorable reviews, the game’s future appears grim at the moment.
