Overwatch unveils Questwatch, a live TTRPG event set to debut at BlizzCon 2026, with details to be revealed during the Opening Ceremony on September 13.

Four player participants and additional RPG specifics will be disclosed during the streamed event, with more information to come at BlizzCon.

Fans will have to wait until BlizzCon to learn whether Questwatch is a one-off event or the start of a broader tabletop initiative from Overwatch.

Key art and official X announcements confirm the project, highlighting Blizzard’s push into cross-media storytelling.

Teasers hint that the TTRPG could be built on Critical Role’s Daggerheart system, as imagery shows Cassidy wielding two D12 dice.

Cole Cassidy is featured in the fantasy-themed key art, signaling the thematic direction of Questwatch.

There is potential for Blizzard-Wizards of the Coast collaboration or Universes Beyond tie-ins, but no formal confirmation that Questwatch links to World of Warcraft or other IPs.

The Questwatch live stream will feature Matthew Mercer as the Dungeon Master, with Cole Cassidy appearing as a featured character and Mercer providing voice work.

Early visuals show Cassidy with two D12 dice, fueling speculation about a Daggerheart-based system, though no official ruleset is confirmed.

A broader collaboration with Critical Role is possible, but no official partnership has been announced.

The announcement aligns with Overwatch’s 10-year anniversary, signaling expanding storytelling and collaboration opportunities beyond traditional gameplay.

Questwatch represents Overwatch’s move into a lore-rich, customizable RPG experience, enabling players to create unique heroes and narratives within the Overwatch universe.
