Overwatch is Coming to Switch 2 on April 14 with LE SSERAFIM Collab

Blizzard has announced that Overwatch is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 on April 14 alongside the launch of Season 2 “Summit” and the LE SSERAFIM collaboration. The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Overwatch features improved visuals, higher fidelity audio, and 60 FPS in both docked and handheld modes. 

“Take the fight with you as Overwatch arrives on Nintendo Switch 2,” Blizzard said in its official blog post. “Better visuals, higher fidelity audio, and up to 60 FPS in both docked and handheld mode make this a much stronger way to experience the game on your Nintendo Switch 2. It’s a cleaner, crisper, portable version of Overwatch that still lets you play with your friends wherever you are.”

Overwatch 2 initially released in 2022 as a free-to-play sequel to the 2016 hero shooter. While the game was supposed to release a full PvE campaign, Blizzard cancelled the narrative component in 2024. Instead, the game has received collaborations with media properties such as Diablo, Cowboy Bebop, Transformers, Gundam Wing, Street Fighter 6, and most recently, NieR: Automata. The game was rebranded to its original Overwatch title on February 10 with the launch of Season 1 “Reign of Talon.”
