The first Blizzard game coming to Steam will be Overwatch 2, and it’ll be available on August 10th — just in time for Steamers (that’s what they’re called, right?) to participate in the Overwatch 2: Invasion event that introduces the long-awaited PvE story missions.

I doubt this becomes a trend. Overwatch is a dying game that the sunk a lot of money into.

If Diablo makes it on steam, I'll be amazed.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this had something to do with the impending Microsoft buyout, seeing as they've been putting all their PC games on Steam for a while. That being said, I also wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft starts moving away from both Steam and Battle.net once the deal closes in favor of the Xbox launcher now that they have a ton of potential exclusives for it.

    Probably why they're bringing it over to Steam in the first place. When the other games start lagging they'll be put on Steam as well
