Overwatch 2 players were left baffled by an insane Roadhog bug that allowed his hook to teleport players across the map on Hollywood.
Overwatch 2 is a pretty complex game. The same goes for the devs, who have to ensure the game remains bug-free and balanced for the fans of the hero shooter.
Of course, bugs still crop up from time to time, but the devs are usually quick to implement new patches that fix or solve these issues. However, whenever new content is added to the title, there are bound to be some bugs that crawl into the Overwatch 2 system.
And now players are expressing their bewilderment over an insane Roadhog bug that has players teleporting across the map for some reason.

For some reason, Roadhog can hook players on Hollywood and teleport them to the other side of the map. This happened to one unfortunate Doomfist who ended up getting teleported all the way to the 3rd point.
What’s even more bizarre is that the Doomfist player saw the Roadhog teleport with them, but they were actually still on the first point. This jankiness resulted in the Doomfist’s death, potentially losing them the match.
Players began complaining about how this issue has not yet been fixed, particularly since this bug was known since the start of the season.
“How is this happening for since the start of the season and this map is still not locked” one player complained.
Others joked that Roadhog had unlocked his own version of Domain Expansion trapping Doomfist in an epic 1v1.
“Hog’s domain expansion.” a user pointed out.
Some theorized that it had something to do with the player’s position when they were hooked, which resulted in them being flung across the map.
