Blizzard games are coming to Steam
The first Blizzard game coming to Steam will be Overwatch 2, and it’ll be available on August 10th — just in time for Steamers (that’s what they’re called, right?) to participate in the Overwatch 2: Invasion event that introduces the long-awaited PvE story missions.
I doubt this becomes a trend. Overwatch is a dying game that the sunk a lot of money into.
If Diablo makes it on steam, I'll be amazed.
I wouldn't be surprised if this had something to do with the impending Microsoft buyout, seeing as they've been putting all their PC games on Steam for a while. That being said, I also wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft starts moving away from both Steam and Battle.net once the deal closes in favor of the Xbox launcher now that they have a ton of potential exclusives for it.

Probably why they're bringing it over to Steam in the first place. When the other games start lagging they'll be put on Steam as well
Hopefully they become a better company in the future so i can buy their games again.
Yup. I've had an itch to play diablo 4 and now with rumours of starcraft 3 being developed I really want them to get their act together so I can support them again.
If their sale to Microsoft goes through, you can bet on it. I give M$ a lot of shit, and deservedly so, but their history of buying game companies and turning them into professional outfits is established.
if
big company
then
because moneyzero part of this is good will.
Players on Steam will still have to connect Overwatch 2 to a Battle.net account
So you still have to jump though pointless hoops, at least you don't have to download another client anymore though
Well this will certainly make things easier than having multiple launchers. Wish we could link the two platforms instead of having to pay twice.. but I think that’s a pipe dream.
