Overwatch's Competitive Mode Is In Fact Coming In June After Delay Scare

Yesterday I reported that Overwatch's Competitive Mode was getting delayed until mid to late July, from a previous June prediction.

Well, throw that out now. It seems someone on Blizzard's social media team got the wrong end of the stick. The account has now issued a correction confirming the mode is indeed coming this month. In a Tweet they said:

@adrianmaturell Sorry about this! Competitive Play will be coming later in *JUNE*, not July. Apologies again for the error. ????

Crisis averted then. I can't wait to get stuck into competitive mode properly and really get ranked.
