Overwatch boss, Jeff Kaplan, has reported positive changes since Blizzard introduced its Looking For Group (LFG) and Endorsement systems last month.
The new systems – introduced at the end of June – seek to improve the experience of the Overwatch community by rewarding positive in-game behaviours.
While Kaplan has yet to share the full analysis across all territories, in a brief forum post he confirmed that abusive chat in competitive matches is already down 26.4 per cent in the Americas, and 16.4 per cent in Korea.
