[Update: It looks like it is on track for June, and the July tweet was in error.]

The critically acclaimed Overwatch launched sans competitive mode due to issues Blizzard saw with the gametype during beta, and had originally stated it would be coming out in June.

Now the ranked mode has been pushed back until “hopefully” late July per the official Overwatch Twitter account.

Guess we will all be ‘pub-stomping’ for a bit longer before we can flex our eSports “ethlete” muscles.
