I have the Beta invitation for PC/Mac since early this year. Is it coming to PS4?

This is the consolation prize from Blizzard, since they cancelled Project Titan.

I'm already 2nd/3rd batch. The first batchers Blizzard only open to Youtubers and game reviewers. Not sure if my PC/Mac invitation can use here.

I've have been supporting Blizzard for donkey years since Warcraft 1. Been playing every Blizzard games except those early console one like Lost Vikings. Don't like Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm though, never like card games and MOBA.

Blizzard is a gigantic game studio dedicated to few IPs and milk them hard. They are known to take ages to release a game but so far they deliver top quality among the developers.

For Overwatch, long story is, Blizzard was working with a new Scifi IP called Project Titan for nearly 10 years. It was rumoured to be an FPS RPG hybrid like Destiny. After Activision bought up both Blizzard and Bungie, there was a rumour Activision reviewed both Titan and Destiny and decided to invest in Destiny. So Blizzards scraped up whatever they had been developing for Titan so far and recycled the materials. It was rumoured that Overwatch was supposed to be the PVP aspect of Titan. The Overwatch graphic assets were recycled too, that's why you see futuristic Earth.

That's a lot more if you google up. The above mentioned was only what I remembered.

It is play, close, sleep type. Industry analysts already forecasted Blizzard will be making some FOP small scale game while looking for the next chance to milk big (Read : WOW).

Traditionally, all Blizzard RTS games attracted huge competitive community. This shows how good they balance their game. They have the fame and they deserve it. And Blizzard is one of the first and most active developer house in promoting all computer game platforms. Their games available in PC, Mac, Linux, and run smooth like butter. They have huge support from the crowd of Mac / Linux gamers.

Yes, a lot of PC master race look down on Mac and Linux gaming. Honestly, PC gaming is better in the past because of DirectX, the most popular and easy to code API. If a game rely more on CPU resources than graphics, then you started to see Intel Mac and Linux OS shine. The turning point now is whether AMD / Nvidia is able to create a new universal API that works for all platforms.

Oh yes. Forgot to mention this. Blizzard, as a gigantic studio, doesn't necessary produce the most creative game. But what are they are good at is, take whatever best aspect in all other games, blend and balanced into their custom engine, give it an awesome packaging and proceed to sell big.

Sounds like Apple right? Apple's Steve Job = Blizzard's Chris Metzen.
