The Chengdu Hunters, a Chinese franchise in the Overwatch League (OWL) owned by the livestreaming platform Huya, Inc., officially disbanded in 2023. The team's future became uncertain in January 2023 following the breakdown of the licensing agreement between Activision Blizzard and NetEase, which resulted in Overwatch 2 and other Blizzard titles becoming unplayable in mainland China. After being excluded from the start of the 2023 OWL season while "contemplating its future direction," reports surfaced in May 2023 that the organization had dissolved, with most players either becoming free agents or joining rival teams like the Hangzhou Spark. On June 20, 2023, a spokesperson for the Overwatch League confirmed that the Hunters had officially exited the league, marking the end of the franchise that had competed since 2019 and was famously known for its unique playstyles and all-Chinese rosters.
