Activision Blizzard's Battle.net servers have been hit by yet another big Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. The attack is causing some severe connection issues for Call of Duty, Overwatch and World of Warcraft players.

Currently, Activision Blizzard teams are still working to resolve the connection issues caused by the DDoS attack on Battle.net.

While the DDoS attack has slowed down, and Blizzard seems to have it under control, login issues still persist for many Battle.net users.

At the time of writing, Blizzard is still investigating connection issues for World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, and Overwatch players.

So far, no one has taken responsibility for the DDoS attack on Battle.net servers. After a DDoS attack, there is normally some lingering connection issues for a developer to deal with.

Hopefully, players can get back to their favourite games soon.
