Blizzard Entertainment has already announced that players who already own Overwatch will need to follow specific instructions to migrate their progress to the new iteration of the game.

Possible reason for the error

While migrating their progress, players might get stuck in a long queue or if they get into a match after logging out, the merge queue will keep resetting every time. Hence, they are usally unable to receive their progress or cosmetics from the previous game to use in Overwatch 2.

While Blizzard is yet to explain why this error keeps happening, the possible reason might be the mass DDoS attack that created a mess of the servers. With a massive number of players trying to log in at the same time, the server capacity has been flooded. However, they can try out the solution given ahead to try and fix the problem.

Steps to fix "migration queue keeps resetting" error in Overwatch 2

1) If you are trying to merge your Overwatch account with Overwatch 2, make sure that you have already opened the other platform where you used to play the game and are still logged in. If not, log in while merging information.

Click the MERGE button when it pops up. If you see an icon where it says, "You are ready for migration," close your game to begin the process.

2) There might be a chance that you will face a long queue where the screen will showcase a random large number of wait times. However, for that, all you need to do is wait. Patience is the key here or you can log out of the game for a while and log in later, which might do the trick.

3) If that doesn't return all your cosmetics and more, reinstall the game. After doing so, you need to click on the globe icon on the launcher and change the region that you were in before.
