Blizzard World map temporarily pulled from Overwatch

The Blizzard World map has been temporarily pulled from Overwatch as a result of its Winter Wonderland makeover.

“We’ve identified an issue with Blizzard World preventing players from leaving spawn areas at the start of the match and completing the match,” Blizzard wrote on its forum.

“Due to the impact of this issue, we have temporarily disabled Blizzard World in all regions on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One while we troubleshoot. We don’t have an ETA to share right now for when Blizzard World will again be playable, but this is currently our top priority.”

We’ll let you know when the map’s put back in rotation.

Overwatch is available now on Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4. The Winter Wonderland event runs until 3 January 2019.
