One of the main reasons why a game won’t start after downloading and installing is because the files aren’t installed correctly. To fix this, you can scan the game files via Battle.net and repair them.
Even if your game supports the minimum system requirements revealed by the developers, there is a chance that the game will crash due to high in-game settings. Lower the settings and test again if you can still enjoy the better and smoother gameplay with the reduced visual quality.
The most important thing to check if a game crashes on launch is whether you have the latest graphics drivers or not. Go to the official sources and download the new drivers from them and see if you can launch OW2 after restarting your computer. Here are the links to update NVIDIA and AMD drivers.
