Blizzard has officially scrapped Overwatch 2’s long-awaited PvE Hero mode, but the game’s creative leads are assuring fans that PvE is still a focus for the game moving forward.

On a Twitch stream detailing Overwatch 2’s content roadmap, executive producer Jared Neuss explained the decision to cut the PvE content.

“Development on the PvE experience has not really hasn’t made the progress that we have hoped,” Neuss said. “The team has created a bunch of amazing content so there’s awesome missions that are really exciting. There’s brand new enemies that are super fun to fight and some truly great and ridiculous hero talents.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom builds upon an already massive Hyrule from Breath of the Wild to add a simply unbelievably large vertical scope from sky to ground…and beyond. Without loading screens, you can climb ridiculously high up and jump down into Hyrule from almost anywhere. So naturally, we had to figure out just how high it all goes. And we did.

There is, it turns out, an upper limit to the sky. It’s all the way up at +3300 on the Y axis (visible on the minimap in the bottom right corner of the screen). Unfortunately, you don’t get anything for reaching that high — just a message that says “You can’t go any farther.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom builds upon the groundbreaking open world design of 2017’s Breath of the Wild, and the creative leads behind the sequel have seemingly confirmed that the Zelda team will stick with this formula for future entries.

In an interview with Game Informer, Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and Tears of the Kingdom director Hidemaro Fujibayashi discussed the future of the Zelda franchise, saying the open world format — or “open air” as Nintendo liked to call it in 2017 — is here to stay.

“With Ocarina of Time, I think it’s correct to say that it did kind of create a format for a number of titles in the franchise that came after it,” Aonuma said.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is out now, and simply bursting at the seams with secrets, hidden treasures, little detours, and easter eggs. Its main story path is fairly easy to follow in the midst of all that, and generally will get you to collect all the key powers, items, and story points you’ll want before eventually beating the game. However, Tears of the Kingdom’s best quality of life feature sits somewhere in between main story and secret, and is possible to miss entirely. We’re talking about the Autobuild power.
