Overwatch: Server issues affecting PC servers in Australia, NZ, Singapore and Brazil

Blizzard has taken to its forums to detail server issues surrounding Overwatch on PC.

“After really digging into this over the weekend, we’ve been able to confirm that there is indeed an issue preventing some players in the Americas region from being matched into local servers—specifically those near/around Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil,” Blizzard advised.

While the issue has been identified, a fix isn’t yet on the cards.

“We’re still investigating possible causes, so we don’t have a solid ETA on when everything will get back to normal,” Blizzard continued. “Unfortunately, it’s unlikely we’ll be able to identify the bug and implement a permanent solution this week, but we’ll be trying out some things over the next few days that may improve your experience for a short time. This would only be a temporary band-aid, though; our biggest priority is to find a fix that addresses the problem at its source.”
