Blizzard takes aim at Overwatch 2 console cheaters


Blizzard is targeting Overwatch 2 cheaters who use a keyboard and mouse on consoles to gain an advantage over controller users.

During the current season(which started this week), Blizzard will dish out permanent bans to the most extreme users of unapproved peripherals. With all that said, Blizzard is looking into adding official KBM support on consoles so folks can play the game that way without negatively impacting controller players. Those who use slurs or threaten others should obviously face appropriate consequences, but apparently booting out players from a game that has profanity filters for some slightly spicy trash talk is some kind of BS.
