Creative players could be thriving shortly… if Blizzard does one important step.

Jeff Kaplan, the game’s producer, said on Blizzard‘s forums the following: „We are extremely open-minded about releasing a map editor for Overwatch, someday, but because Overwatch was made with a brand new engine, this is not a small task or one which can happen any time soon.

There would be a lot of potential in making a level editor available, though: Overwatch, which is getting more and more players as days go by, could have its life expanded, and creative map designers could be bringing some players back to the game. The developers might also officially support the most successful user-created maps, as well, making it a win-win situation…
