While the company has made a lot of progress to make the game playable — a lot of players at first — its work is far from done. Now, the developer is trying to make it up to fans by giving out freebies and running events. It will hold several Double Match XP weekends to give players the chance to rack up points and rank up. Blizzard will announce specific dates for the events soon.
It will also give players who log in from October 25th until the time Season One ends a Cursed Captain Reaper Legendary skin and a Health Pack Weapon Charm. Both items will automatically be added to people's collection when they log in within that window of time. In its announcement, Blizzard said that it will deploy more stability updates, starting with another patch scheduled for release this week. It also said that it's monitoring the game closely for any more issues and bugs that emerge.

Users are reporting problems regarding specific characters in the game, such as Mei, whose ice wall has been behaving inconsistently, according to . Blizzard even had to out of the game completely to address a few bugs in the ability kits.
