This article still says that Overwatch 1 & 2 will coexist with one another.
Update it. Litchfield, Ted (2022-06-23). "Once Overwatch 2 arrives, you'll never be able to play Overwatch 1 again". PC Gamer. Retrieved 2022-07-10.
We can go back and forth the tense question forever. Looking at the previous discussion, it appeared that many users held the belief that since the servers are shut down, that means the game no longer exists. There are several errors in that logic that will be pointed out in turn.
