Blizzard confirms no single player campaign in development – Overwatch
Bad news for solo players.
The Overwatch team have confirmed that there are no plans for a single-player campaign for the game right now.
The news came in a tweet during a wider discussion about the new hero/map teaser that was revealed on the social media site earlier on this morning.
@Turns1701e We don’t have any plans for that right now.

Although Blizzard has never entirely ruled out the possibility of a story mode for Overwatch, this response suggests that it certainly isn’t something they are looking to work on any time soon.
With that said, the extremely positive reception to seasonal events such as Junkenstein’s Revenge and Uprising gives us hope that we’ll see some kind of additional PVE content for the game going forwards.
