There is very little doubt that Overwatch will be lauded as one of the best games of the year. With intense hero-based battles that are quick and easy to learn, this novel FPS is turning into an instant classic. As much as the game is great, however, there has been an annoying glitch popping up in the game every so often.

Though Overwatch's servers have been holding up pretty well since the title's launch, a number of players have reported seeing a "No Overwatch License Found" error message appearing every so often when attempting to log in to the game. Unfortunately, this error message does not disappear, preventing Overwatch players from enjoying the game even if they have purchased the title legitimately.

Thankfully, a number of affected players have managed to find a great workaround for this otherwise very annoying glitch. First off, the "No Overwatch License Found" message is rooted from the current game's server location. Thus, a simple change and reversal of the server settings have been found to remove the error message completely.

If the error message appears on the login screen, all gamers need to do is change the game's region. This means that players in North America could change their region to Europe, and vice versa. Changing the region could be done using the Battle.net client.

After this, players should try logging in to the game. Due to the change in the region, this particular login would result in yet another error. When this happens, players must go back to the Battle.net client and revert the game's region back to the original settings.

Once the game's servers are reverted back to their original settings, players could try logging in to the game once more. At this point, the game should launch without any problem and the "No Overwatch License Found" error should not appear.

Though glitches such as these are usually resolved by Blizzard within the next few days, it still pays to know a workaround such as these. After all, Overwatch is an awesome game. Gamers would be wise to exercise their resourcefulness when glitches such as these appear.
