Blizzard has pulled back from its requirement that players add their mobile phone number to their Battle.net account in order to play Overwatch 2.
Blizzard argued that SMS Protect was necessary as the game transitioned to a live service free-to-play model, in order to combat"disruptive behaviour" and stop banned users simply creating a new account.However, the community didn't take kindly to this requirement, which could be viewed as exclusionary particularly for those without a mobile phone.
Acknowledging these issues, Blizzard has amended this policy so existing players with a connected Battle.net account who had played Overwatch anytime since 9th June 2021 will no longer be required to add a phone number to play Overwatch 2. Blizzard claims this should cover the vast majority of legacy players.
