Currently, there are plans for the Overwatch Mobile which is in development.

Release date and what to expect?

For now, there has been no information revealed about the release date of the game. However, we can expect that game to hit soon on Apple Store and Play Store in 2027. This is only if they don’t scrap their plans for this mobile game.

We can also see the Esports organizations and professional gamers having their interest aligned in the future. Valorant Mobile is also making its way next year and some of the Esports teams have been already formed.

The same thing can happen for the Overwatch mobile as well. Call of Duty mobile and PUBG have already been successful on mobile versions. Every year, there are so many tournaments held for both of these games with a good amount of prize money.

We still have to wait for the release of the game and then only we can decide whether it would be a success or not.
