When will Bastion be playable again in Overwatch 2? Answered

gamepur.com:

Among the issues present in Overwatch 2 a week after release was an exploit players were taking with Bastion’s Ultimate that allowed him to shoot a lot more artillery shells than he should have been able to. This made his Ultimate easily the most deadly in the game, completely turning the tide of battle in one team’s favor. Because of this, Blizzard temporarily disabled him not just from Quick and Competitive play, but completely removed him from the game to work on fixing him in the background. Here is when you can expect Bastion to be playable in Overwatch 2 again.

Following Bastion being removed from Overwatch 2, there is a section of the game’s community that like the high-damage omnic and are wondering when he will return. Unfortunately, Blizzard has not given an update on his status as of this writing, but you can expect him back at the very least by the end of the week. In fact, we would be surprised if he is out of rotation too much longer, he will likely be reimplemented sometime Tuesday night or during the day Wednesday. Just depends on when they can fix him.

Additionally, Torbjorn has been disabled in Competitive matches, but is still playable in Quick Play. His Overcharge ability was having increased duration, but obviously that is not as significant of a game-breaking issue as Bastion’s Ultimate bombarding everyone. We would be surprised if either heroes are out for too much longer.

These kind of issues pop up every now and then, but it is the first time a character has been outright removed from the game. The way that D.Va operates can sometimes cause bugs leading to her being disabled
