But what can be done? As you would guess from the name, “Overwatch 2 Console Error LC-208” is mainly affecting players on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series S/X. Blizzard has issued its own set of instructions about how to help prevent the issue, or fix it outright, but players have been met with mixed success when trying the official method.

How to fix Overwatch 2 LC-208 error on console

Per Blizzard, your first port of call should be disconnecting and reconnecting your Battle.net account to your Xbox or PlayStation account. This can resolve the error.

Check your network configuration to find any issues with your firewall, router, or port settings. Reset your network devices to make sure your router hasn’t become flooded with data. If you’re using a wireless connection, optimize your internet connection to rule out a connection issue. Run your console’s built-in connection test (Playstation 4) (Xbox One) (Nintendo Switch). Use your console’s internet browser to run a Looking Glass test. This will help determine if the problem is between your console and our servers.

If this doesn’t work, there are alternative options that players of the game have discovered. One Twitter user suggests entering the game’s firing range on a PC with the same accont logged in (if that’s an option for you), closing the game, and then logging in on console. VG247 has tried this method, and it worked for us. Beyond the official information listed above, Blizzard has made no formal comment on the LC-208 error at the time of writing. If none of these steps have helped you, you can get in touch with Blizzard’s Technical Support forum – it seems many people have already had that idea, though.
