Overwatch Release Date UPDATE: Open Beta Moved To February 2015 But Full Launch Still On October 2015 Rumored; Blizzard FPS Might Not Be Free-To-Play

A big update for Blizzard's Overwatch has surfaced and it seems that the beta for Overwatch that was set for May 2015 has been moved to February 2015 if the reports and rumors are to be believed.

It was previously reported that Blizzard planned to unveil the beta of Overwatch this May 2015 and that its full release date has been allegedly set to October 2015.

But now, it seems that Blizzard is going to follow their initial plan of setting the open beta of Overwatch this February 2015 and the full release date of Overwatch to be on October 2015, as was reported by Cyberland.

But is Overwatch going to be free-to-play just like Team Fortress 2 or would you have to pay for it to play it?

Jeff Kaplan of Blizzard had an interview with Kotaku and he unveiled new details about the game's financial model, single player campaign modes and more.

"I don't think we would ever do a single-player campaign, because the way these characters work, they're cool when you combine them together. Some don't play well alone, either. Unless we built a campaign around supporting somebody else, a support character like Mercy probably wouldn't do well,"

VG 24/7 reported that "Blizzard is not sure if the game will be free-to-play or not though, but they insist whatever model it ends up using, it has to be a 'a fair deal' without people feeling 'ripped off'."

With Blizzard considering doing a business model that would negate people feeling ripped off and instead they had a fair deal, it can be speculated that Blizzard is leaning towards a pay-to-play scheme for Overwatch.
