Wild Overwatch 2 glitch makes Doomfist appear as Mercy

pcgamesn.com:

With the second Overwatch 2 beta in full swing, one player has noticed a fun glitch that has carried over from the first playtest that effectively turns Doomfist into Mercy.

As players continue to explore the revamped Overwatch universe in the title’s highly anticipated sequel, Overwatch 2, there’s quite a bit to get your head around.

With new heroes like Sojourn being thrown into the mix (even if some players are claiming she’s boring) and a slew of changes to pre-existing characters like Mercy and Symmetra, every day is a school day.

Like most betas, however, players have encountered a whole slew of bugs, glitches, and all-round weirdness. One of these is with character profile icons, which appear to be reluctant to change even when you’ve switched characters (or class, apparently).

While this is relatively minor and doesn’t really effect the actual gameplay, it quickly became a meme.

Coming into the second beta the profile bug is still there, but this time it’s managed to mix up Mercy and Doomfist, two characters from completely different classes (Support and Tank respectively).

“So I guess the portrait glitch still hasn’t been fixed” writes the bemused Doomfist player, showing off a screenshot of them playing the Nigerian Talon boss while the profile image shows the iconic Pink Mercy skin.
