During training sessions in Overwatch 2's Practice Range, a player stumbled upon a peculiar glitch that transforms standard character models into elongated versions. This unique Overwatch 2 bug manifests exclusively in the Practice Range and requires specific movements from the player to replicate.
The Practice Range in Overwatch 2 is intended for players to practice with new heroes against AI bots placed throughout the map. Alongside adjustable in-game settings and range markers, the map has now become a playground for triggering a humorous bug involving various in-game characters.
In a recent Reddit post, user FalloutJaegar shared an amusing glitch discovered in the Practice Range of Overwatch 2, wherein regular character models appear as bizarre stretched-out anomalies. The post included several images showcasing the distorted forms of different Overwatch 2 characters. The glitch reportedly occurs when the player character interacts with a specific lamp and subsequently jumps, causing the character model to elongate unnaturally.
While the original poster found the glitch entertaining, Reddit users expressed their own reactions to this unusual in-game phenomenon. One user described the altered character models as unsettling, stating, 'I'm scared.' Another user humorously referred to the elongated character as 'Daddy Long Legs,' sparking further comments on the eerie yet amusing nature of the stretched models.
